Whether you are an expat, snowbird, or frequent vacationer, you want to start learning practical Spanish you can immediately go out and use to facilitate your day-to-day activities and to be able to have conversations with the people you meet. To do that, your lessons need to be focused on getting you to speak immediately, learning the most common vocabulary, and only learning essential structures

. With our unique phrase building methodology, you will:

✔ Quickly understand how to put full sentences together and how to change them according to the situation you are in
✔ Learn and use key vocabulary first to express most essential ideas
✔ Automatically put sentences together in real time communication

If you’ve ever taken a ‘typical’ Spanish course, then you know the lessons are based on complicated and overwhelming grammar with lists of useless vocabulary that you need to memorize…

You come out of the course being unable to say a simple sentence and feeling frustrated that you wasted so much money, energy, and time.

𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐬𝐨 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭! Just in the first 5 lessons, you will be able to:

✔ Ask people to slow down & repeat so you can understand
✔ Explain how much of a tip you'd like to add to your debit card
✔ Understand common questions or replies during purchases
✔ Ask the cost of the ride or an item you would like to buy

Instead trying to memorize and remember 100's of words that you have to keep relearning because you start to forget them...

Tag a friend & share por favor 🙏 Let's get the word out & raise some funds. For those of you who don't know, Puerto Vallarta and area was hit by Hurricane Lidia last week as a massive category 4 hurricane on October 10th. The city was without power or water for days and many are STILL without it almost a week later. But it gets worse...

Following this first round given to us by mother nature, 2 days later there was a massive landslide cutting off access to communities to the south who desperately need support AND a torrential downpour led to flash floods affecting a huge part of the city. The devastation has affected so many.

To support, Expat Spanish Lessons will be donating 20% of ALL Spanish course sales between October 16-24 directly to the Vallarta Food Bank. You can learn Spanish AND help people in urgent need.

As of today, the Vallarta Food Banks has raised 300,000 pesos which will help 1000 families in need, but there are still 𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 that are in 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭.

The Vallarta Food Bank is a solid organization lead by Jimmy & Francie Plouff who truly are community heroes working tirelessly to support the community. EVERY PESO is stretched to have the biggest impact. What they do goes way beyond just providing hot meals to HUNDREDS of people every day, when a disaster happens, they are first ones out finding the best way to help by supplying clean water, removing debris, rebuilding, and helping with clean up,

Please help us to raise funds and get support to those who need it the most right now, and get a course to improve your Spanish at the same time.

Fresh seafood is my weakness. Especially this tuna ceviche from one of my favorite beachfront restaurants. 😋⁣
⁣
Although the origin of ceviche is often debated, it is commonly served in 🇲🇽 Mexican restaurants. Mexican tuna ceviche is made from raw fish or seafood and it is marinated or 'cooked' in fresh lime juice. Recipes and preparations vary but you might find it mixed tomatoes, onions, cilantro, avocados, cucumbers, and of course, with a basket of those crunch Mexican totopos (tortilla chips) or saltine crackers (galletas saladas).⁣

What is your favorite type of ceviche? Let us know in the comments!👌⁣

What is something you LOVE from your home country but can't easily find in Mexico? 🇲🇽
⁣
Backstory: Last year on our summer roadtrip to Mazamitla, I found a delicious, fresh, and locally grown freestone peach at a roadside fruitstand on the edge of Lake Chapala. My hometown (Kelowna, BC) is one of the few areas in Canada where tree fruits are grown (cherries, apricots, plums, peaches, apples, pears) and I always took them for granted.⁣
⁣
Being an expat living in Mexico, thousands of miles from home, you get really excited when you see something you normally don't have. 🥰⁣

We all try to be as polite as possible in Spanish even if we only know a few words like 'sorry'. If you're using 'Lo siento' 'sorry' for everything, you've definitely been overusing it and probably not in the context you intended...

Let me clarify these 5 'polite Spanish' phrases that often get mixed up by Spanish learners so that you can confidently (and politely) ask someone to 'move', get their attention, and use the correct version of 'sorry'.

Read the article here:

Learn the polite way to ask someone to 'move', get someone's attention, and how to apologize in Spanish by using the right word for the specific scenario!
