Where ever you may be (Barcelona, Granada, Peru, Malaga, Andalusia, Madrid, UK, London, Canada, Vancouver, USA, anywhere really) if you want to learn Spanish, then the obvious thing to do is attend classroom instructor-led training - depending on the time available to you, that will be day-time or evening classes.
But what are your options other than classroom? You time is limted and classroom training isn't always possible. Spanish books? CBT (Computer Based Training) Spanish CDs? Cassettes? Or videos? What about learning Spanish online?
Books: Probably the most convenient form allowing you brush-up while on a bus, during your lunch break or during those regular traffic jams.
Cassettes/Videos: Demand has greatly reduced for these media - probably dues to the fact that you can't just 'jump' to the section/chapter you are interested in.
CBT: The advantage here is that you can study at your own leisure - at work or at home (you need a PC of course). the great thing is that you've got a bunch of CDs/Books that you can use for as long as you like. Well, we specialise in CBT and over the last few years have not found a consistent source that provides the courses in multiple formats. But we hope to do so soon ;-)
Online: Cheaper due to there being no printed media. All the advantages of CBT, except you need to be connected to the internet.
LMS: If you are a company, then you can 'host' the training in-house. An LMS (Learning Management System) enables you to host, administrate and manage the courses as well as students in-house, thereby saving you time and money.
