The best way to learn a language is Video Chat. I'm from Puerto Rico and I can help you get fluent in Spanish. That way, we can practice. I need to improve my English. Contact me and let me know. I always use Skype for practice English. I met a lot of people on the internet from USA that want to learn Spanish. So we do Video Chat on Skype 3 or 5 days a week. Just need a few minutes and get advice, is free. Just met Spanish speakers people and make your own Spanish speaker contact list. Contact me.

Hi there,
well you can learn general Spanish first and then change to Puerto Rican Spanish. Buy a beginners course in Spanish, watch Spanish TV etc.....and later on when you move to advanced level concentrate on Puerto Rican Spanish, even go to Puerto Rico for holiday or a course or similar. Watch Puerto Rican(PR) TV, movies; read PR news online etc....and keep learning and never stop ;-)...

ening to your grandma, buying a book about the language and culture of Puerto Rica.
Direct contact with Puerto Riicans, reading the newspapers on the internet, listening to music, particularly salsa ,as well as making as many Puerto Rican friends that you can
The best way of course is immersion, going to Puerto Rico and only speaking and listening to Puerto Ricans
Good Luck
Hope this helps

I don't know how much Spanish you know, but if you forgot some of the basics, try learning from allfreespanish.com. After you learn a lot of the basics and vocab, it's all about listening to it and using it yourself. Try watching Spanish TV or Podcasts (like Coffee Break Spanish podcasts.) The ultimate ability comes from using it yourself when having a conversation with another person.
If you want to discover Spanish from a native then choose a on the web course due to the fact the greatest way to discover excellent Spanish is from a native speaker.
