I never thought I'd track this down, post on here and its in my inbox in less than an hour! I love this forum.

Hi, could anyone help me with the following article? Copac suggests its only available via Cardiff Uni or the British Library.

Thanks very much!

Hi again,

I spent about 8 months doing four hours a week at the school. My Spanish is pretty fluent, though quite colloquial, and this is partly the result of the tuition, though also the result of living in a village and having the options of speaking Spanish or not speaking at all.

I'm about to start a PhD in politics, on Nicaragua. Would be interested to hear about the Soc Sci elements of your research?

Hi NJR,

I would recommend doing your language learning in Central America. You might find that the teaching is a bit traditional in some language schools (emphasis on grammar, rote learning), but you will get one-to-one tuition at an affordable price, and of course you will be learning Central American Spanish from the start (there's a big difference). Are you going to focus on any particular countries? I studied at a great school in Estelí, Nicaragua, but most schools have websites now so it shouldn't take much googling to find something you like.

Good luck!
