Try This 30-Day Challenge to Improve Your Spanish!

Improving your Spanish always seems like a daunting task, except if you break it down into a challenge. Thirty days of practicing the language means that you get to take baby steps, seamlessly incorporating your lessons into your daily life.

Do it in Spanish, too! That, plus other simple steps, like downloading a vocabulary app and watching a movie in Spanish without subtitles, will improve your bilingualism in no time.
