Yo empecé estudiar español hace un mes en Duolingo. He tenido una lección en Italki.

But this is cheating: I am using Google translate. So instead I will just write in English for now.

I have been using Duolingo to improve my German for several months now. Then I started giving some English lessons to some local children. Their father is Italian and their mother comes from Uruguay. I thought it would be fun to be able to speak some Spanish to her, for instance to answer when she said “Mucho gusto” on meeting me. So I started some Spanish on Duolingo too. I am a complete beginner.

I have been taking German lessons on Italki for a couple of months, and I have a very good teacher, Luisa. I decided to try a Spanish lesson there too. I had half an hour with Jisa, which went quite well. I was able to converse just a little, and when I didn’t know a word I tried using the Italian word. I booked a second session with Jisa. She tried to have a conversation with me, but I had to confess that I really couldn’t say much, so we rescheduled and she will prepare some material for me to read. We will have the rescheduled lesson tomorrow, and by that time I will have some material from this course to work on as well.
