So you want to learn Spanish, but don't have the money for private classes

No problem. Here are the best free Spanish lessons on Youtube that will help you develop your listening comprehension of Spanish words and accents.

 

1. For beginners: The Language Tutor

Dr. Danny Evans starts from the very basics, making sure you know exactly how to pronounce each letter of the alphabet, and then gradually covers hundreds of grammar lessons, always finding a way to explain even the more complex lessons in a very simple manner. He is perfectly bilingual, so you will have no trouble understanding him.

2. For intermediate learners: Spanish Pod 101

They have a wide variety of short videos, including weekly Spanish words on different themes, the top 25 must-know Spanish nouns, verbs, adjectives, and more. It's always a native speaker teaching, so you listen to different accents.

Our personal favorites are the videos with Alisha and Lia, who break down Spanish grammar into short, easy, clear lessons.

3. To practice hearing and pronunciation: Quino.com

These videos are great to practice formulating nouns, verbs, questions and answers you'd find in basic conversations.  Subjects include family, weather, restaurants, meeting a friend, meeting a stranger, etc.  The orations go from very simple, and become more elaborate throughout the video. It's all about listening, so you can put on the video while you cook, clean, exercise, or even while you are showering!

4. For Kids: Calico

These videos teach Spanish to kids ages 3 to 10, through songs and animations. They are very illustrative , and cover topics such as animals, colors, body parts, numbers, food, professions, etc.
