answer:Yes, definitely! Take classes in college, and study abroad in a Spanish-speaking country. Within two days of studying abroad in Spain I noticed both my speaking and comprehension improve. It helps tremendously to be completely immersed, speaking and hearing 100% Spanish, and going to a Spanish-speaking country is really the only way to do that. But definitely learn a bunch first. Also, I’ve heard that Rosetta Stone is really good, although I’ve never used it.
