Not sure where to start? I recommend the following:
- DuoLingo to learn new words and occasionally review / strengthen previous words
- Quizlet to create and/or browse sets of flashcards by topic and/or part of speech
- About Spanish to read interesting and useful things in English
- Spanish Obsessed to listen and learn while driving, waiting, etc.
- WordReference or Google Translate to look up words
- StudySpanish or Conjuguemos to browse grammar and vocabulary sets
And after you learn a lot or feel comfortable with immersion:
- LyricsTraining and Kevin Karla y La Banda for listening to music in Spanish
- Veinte Mundos to practice reading
- Spanish Listening to practice listening and comprehension
- BBC Mundo or Univision for news of interest to the learner
These are things I've put together to specifically practice what we cover in class.
