Every year some students travel to MdL with little to no spanish language experience. The experience tends to be much more meaningful and productive if such students gain the ability to hold rudimentary conversations in spanish before travel. Learning a language is nearly impossible for students alreadly loaded down with a full engineering schedule. These are resources that have worked for some students in the past.
Please add additional methods and comment on existing methods that have worked for you.
