I’m talking about objectives (goals, objetivos). It’s very possible that when you contact with a teacher, he or she will ask you what do you need about Spanish, why have you decided to learn it and why. All this three first objective are overly important for you, my dear Spanish beginner.

And I say tiny because you do not also need long term objectives such as passing DELE exam or being able to make an oral presentation in front of your company, but also short term objetivos that help you to achieve little tasks time from time in order to keep your motivation alive.

Because when you begin something new you are fully motivated but if you don’t feel that you are progressing, your motivation can drop little by little and, at the end, you will giving up your Spanish learning.

¿Y no queremos que eso suceda, verdad?

So, if you don’t have any objective yet, write two columns (short term and long term) and write at least one long term and try to think which short term objectives you need to achieve it. And if you cannot do it by yourself, talk about it with your teacher, who surely that will help you to create a realistic and proper learning program just for you… my dear Spanish beginner.
