static block photo

Do you need to learn Spanish for your job? Maybe you’d just like to take some Latin American Spanish lessons to enhance your travels throughout South America. Whatever the reason, there’s one way to ensure you’ll be speaking the language before you know it: it’s called the Pimsleur Method™.

Pimsleur puts you in the driver’s seat (that’s asiento del conductor in Latin American Spanish) on your journey to learn one of the world’s most widely spoken languages. The majority of Pimsleur users can easily acquire Spanish as their second (or even third) language in their spare time; thanks to our easy-to-use app, you’re able to take Spanish lessons whenever it’s convenient.

The most prevalent language throughout the majority of Central American and South America, Latin American Spanish is spoken in most Latin American nations. It’s the official language of dozens of countries, including Mexico, Argentina, Uruguay, Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic, to name a few. Worldwide, only three other languages are more common: English, Mandarin Chinese, and Hindi. Mexican Spanish is also one of a half-dozen official languages used by the United Nations. Pimsleur's Spanish courses use practical, easily applicable methods – with lessons taught by only native Latin American Spanish speakers – to help you quickly get up to speed with your grasp of Spanish.

The reasons for taking Spanish lessons differ from person to person. Your particular “why” is unique. But whatever reason you have for learning to speak Spanish, there are many benefits:

  • Gain a better understanding of the different cultures in Central and South America.
  • Enjoy casual or business conversations with native Mexican Spanish speakers.
  • Travel with confidence, knowing you’re able to converse with anyone.
  • Experience endless unique locales as only a native Latin American Spanish speaker can.
  • And more! From Panama to Paraguay and Colombia to Costa Rica, there’s simply no better way to learn how to speak Latin American Spanish than with Pimsleur leading the way!

The Best Way to Learn Mexican Spanish

The Pimsleur Method utilizes a scientifically proven approach, first developed by language education pioneer Paul Pimsleur (1927-1976). In order to effectively learn to speak Spanish, it helps to start with a core batch of key words and phrases to build your vocabulary.

To speak like a native, we’ve discovered the best way to acquire Latin American Spanish, like any other language, is through listening. Hearing Spanish words and phrases with the correct pronunciation enhances memory and learning retention, just like a child learns a new language.

As you’re listening to learn, you can take your Mexican Spanish lessons anytime – and anywhere! Learn Spanish while walking the dog, doing chores around the house, or while running errands. Whether you’re at home or on the go, it’s always an ideal time to learn Spanish – and Pimsleur provides all the resources to make it happen.

From there, steady progress with Pimsleur eventually leads to a high-level grasp of the Spanish language, to the point where you can speak clearly. This includes enhanced development with the language to speak with the cadence, speed, and even accent of native Latin American Spanish speakers.

Common Questions About Learning Latin American Spanish

Is Spanish a difficult language to learn?

When you sign up for a Pimsleur Premium or All Access subscription, it’s not difficult to learn Spanish. In fact, you’ll acquire your new language while having an absolute blast – you’ll pick up new words and phrases quickly as you learn Mexican Spanish. Spanish is considered one of the easiest languages for native English speakers to learn. It has the same Latin alphabet and many similarities with grammar and syntax rules. Plus, you can take your Spanish lessons on the go with our convenient app. Of course, you can always learn to speak Spanish at home in front of your computer, too.

How long does it take to learn Spanish?

When it comes to Latin American Spanish, this might be the most common question of all. With Pimsleur leading the way, you can start speaking the language after your very first lesson! Thanks to the Pimsleur Method, along with our helpful tools and courses, our goal is to establish a base knowledge of key vocabulary words and phrases, then build your confidence as you progress with your Mexican Spanish lessons. It’s a formula that shortens the learning curve, and you’ll soon realize how quickly you’ll learn Latin American Spanish.

What are the main challenges when learning Mexican Spanish?

Spanish, like other Romance languages, puts adjectives after nouns, a common hurdle for native English speakers. Nouns are also gendered, verbs are conjugated based on tense and person, and pronouns are dropped if the context already assumes the noun or noun phrase. These and other challenges await as you learn Spanish, and our Latin American Spanish lessons will make sure they’re all accounted for. You’ll use our always-accessible tools like Speed Round Games, Digital Flash Cards, and Core Lessons to learn to speak Spanish the fast, efficient, and fun way!

How important is pronunciation in learning Latin American Spanish?

You can’t learn Mexican Spanish properly without speaking the language with the correct pronunciation. The language’s five vowels feature varied stress and pace for different words, while the 17 to 19 consonants (depending on the Spanish dialect) must be spoken a certain way when used with particular words, phrases, and sentences. These subtleties and more are covered with our Voice Coach with AI pronunciation feedback tool, so you’ll build your speaking skills as you learn Latin American Spanish.

Are the Spanish lessons suitable for complete beginners?

Pimsleur is perfect for anyone with zero exposure to the language. We’ll help anyone learn Spanish – total novices, those at the intermediate level, and more. We’ve created immersive and inclusive Spanish lessons for everyone who wants to learn Mexican Spanish, and the flexibility of our courses puts you in control of your learning journey. Learn at home, on the go (our hands-free driving mode is ideal to learn Spanish en route anywhere), and at your own pace. Before you know it, you’ll be speaking Spanish conversationally! Get started with a Premium or All Access subscription and take advantage of our intuitive, educational learning platform.
