I took Spanish I in college, then I went to live in Spain for a semester. I highly recommend this language school: http://www.rondapiee.com/ http://www.rondapiee.com/ I learned so much in four months at that school that I was ahead of most Junior spanish majors when I got back. (I was also highly motivated to learn the language, and lived with a Spanish family. It's definitely possible to go to any language school and not learn a lot if you don't make the effort.) I went back there a couple years later and did another semester... but at this point I have full command of the grammar, and just need to work on vocabulary. For that, all you need is some spanish speakers to talk to.
