- boredumb 6y agoI've been learning spanish for years via videos and it has gone a long way to show me how little I can learn from them by passively ingesting the information. I moved to a spanish speaking area recently and within a few months being able to really apply the knowledge (outside of duolingo or basic exercises) it has given me more understanding and confidence than years of more passive approaches. The knowledge is great and required, but being able to apply it, fail, learn, apply it, succeed is absolutely the fast track.
