tl:dr version: i had a trip planned for costa rica and now the plans have gone to shit. i wanted to get my spanish to serviceable, so i was thinking about filling the time up with language immersion training. is it worth it for someone who isn't naturally gifted in verbal communication? i can afford it, but i don't know if people really get their money's worth out of it.
does anyone have experience/advice?
>>
immersion doesn't need training
watch spanish tv
listen to spanish radio and try to think speak in spanish

if that were true, why don't i understand my animu?
>>
watch spanish comedy
APM is pretty decent but it has some parts in Catalan so that could be confusing.
What about this:

Radio 3 from RTVE has spanish commentators explaining the music or artists between tracks (mostly obscure genres and new stuff)

because you're only reading the subtitles
REMOVE subtitles

i don't know if i'm going to get down the language just by watching tv and hoping i get down the words eventually. if i were to do an immersion program, wouldn't they hand-hold me some more?

yea they would speak to you and you would respond

>>69807345
get in a spanish speaking community
if you play videogames, VoIP (Mumble, Teamspeak) can be a great way to practice a language
for example i learned a lot of english using comms on mumble when i played TF2center

immersion is not about listening passively
it means "you speak the language or die of starvation"
you're supposed to be taught the important words and phrases one by one so you can survive, not listening aimlessly to conversations
