Practicing Spanish without a partner is way harder than expected
I feel like a lot of advice assumes you have someone to practice speaking with, but that’s not really my situation. I also don't have the funds currently to go to a tutor. I'd have to pay out of pocket for the tutor and then also pay for babysitting for my kids, so it's not really feasible for me right now. I’ve been trying to bridge that gap on my own by talking out loud, repeating things, and lately using Praktika since it simulates conversations better than just talking to myself. My speaking is nowhere even close to perfect, but it’s definitely better than just studying silently. What have other people done when they didn’t have access to real conversation partners? Has anyone ever tried learning alongside their spouse so that you could practice with them?
