They have Spanish Language Contining Education classes at Mexico's colleges/universities.\n\nDepending on what city & state you are planning to attend in Mexico, you can look them up in the yellow pages:\nhttp://seccionamarilla.com.mx/default.asp\n\nThey also have Spanish Language Contining Education here in our colleges/universities in the USA as well.  You can contact your local colleges/universities.\n\nGood luck & have fun!  ;o)

There is a  rather new language school in Indianpolis\nhttp://www.indyfla.com\nas well as a more established one\nhttp://www.languagetrainingcenter.com/\nIUPUI continuing education usually has French courses (borochure was in a recent Sunday Star/News\nAsk your local school district.  If there is enough interest, there may be a teacher who would be willing to do an adult education class.  (I've thought about inquiring at my district office to see if there were interest, but there is soo much Spanish.)  If you can get about five people together, the class might run.

Take a class. My girl friend and I are learning Spanish. We did 101 and got a lot out of it. Now we're trying to learn on our own. There's always a reason to put it off. Without deadlines and tests it just doesn't get done. Your local community college will have languages and it should be cheap for residents. \n\nOtherwise: I'd go Pimsleur.

There so many options you could take.  First focus on how you want to apply what you learn.  As a child psychologist, or a pupil service attendant, or what about working with social services focusing on a certain age group of children, elementary, middle or High school.  What ever you choose YEAH for you.  That is a definite field that needs people who really care and want to make a difference.  In California there is a program in LA connected with LA Works.  They are advocates for children.  Call them and maybe you could do some volunteer work to help you really focus in on what your heart desires.  Best of luck to you!

by the look of your avatar, you don't exactly like in the middle of kansas, miss nyc chick. you couldn't be in a better place to learn spanish, yet people on the post are telling you to take classes for a language spoken by the largest growing minority...... ummmmmm...... think about that. go stand on 125th street(that's pronounced "a hun-twunnie fiff stree" for non new yorkers) and see how quickly you will learn spanish. the point is, submerge yourself with spanish on purpose. lee las periodicas, y mira las noticias en la manana mientras esta haciendo desayuno, todo!! ya kno

it depends on your state but for the most part you need a masters in school counseling, or guidance counseling. through your degree you will work to meet certification req. for the state. i was about to do the program and decided not to. either way you need more than a bachelor's degree.

Yes you said that right, spanish is an easy language to speak of course I say this cause I live in Puerto Rico heh.  I have family in Spain and you will have a GREAT time.  As for a program worth the time, money and effort.  Um sorry nope the only good thing would be taking a class.  Denada y perdona por no poder contestar tu pregunta.  Hope you understood that.  Heh\nGood Luck, Have Fun...Buena Suerte ...que te diviertas.

Fungusbrain's Idea will work - or you can go to a nearby school and just ask them.  They will be more than happy to help and they know their zone better than the district office would.

Do you know any S&M people (Spaniards or Mexicans) ?  If so tell them your desire and they'll help you.  Also, In your local bookstore buy some CD's by "Pimsuler"....You listen and repeat,listen and repeat.  One other way is go to a bar or resturaunt in the Spanish speaking part of town,and have a few drinks.  The alcohol will open your mind up (i'm serious) because then you will be less self-concious about making mistakes when you converse.  Lastly, travel to Mexico or Spain whenever you can.

To nursesr4evr: These people know exactly how to go about getting a better life because their gov't gives them pamphlets  telling them how to get into the U.S..  Go to this site and look at what Mexico's gov't is telling its citizens.\n\nhttp://www.letxa.com/guiamigrante.php

Good question. In our school system they hire illegals without teaching credentials to accomodate spanish only speaking students, yet don't have time to teach my kids a second language. They actually tried for a few months, then stopped without explanation. I guess many of these hispanic students need a lot of attention, because I've pretty much been told it's my job to educate my youngest two kids myself, but I legally must send them to school anyway. Just tell a teacher you are considering home schooling if you want an angry indignant response, though. I guess they need my money guaranteed so they can educate others.

Well, I am currently an exchange student in Brazil, where I am 'learning' Portuguese. My program is pretty good, its called CIEE. Last year my sister went to study in Spain for a year. Just so you know, in neither Latin America or Europe do you choose your classes like you do in America. So, I doubt you will be able to take any admitable classes. Suggestion: either do a summer program or go after you senior year. I finished my freshman year and then came here, so now I have to graduate a year later than my friends. But, oh, the freedom-the fun- the parties- the experience- it's ALL worth it!

Try looking for Adult drug, alcohol, and mental health services in your phone book. It will be listed in County Government services in the beginning of the phone book. I live up in Santa Barbara County and that is where I receive my  psychiatric care. You can also ask your Medi-Cal worker about a list of Medi-Cal accepting Doctors in your area. Hope this helps. Good luck.

I did my internship through Kaiser several years ago (in another field) out in San Diego. Although my school was contracted with them , I had to go through the human resource department at Kaiser and apply for an internship position. If you're enrolled in an accredited school, more than likely they already have contacts there and you should speak with your counselor. If not, then try human resources. Good luck!

I feel that anytime a class like that is offered you should allow your child to take it.  Any additonal free classes like that will only help in the long run.  For example; college admission; better jobs.  My daughter was introduced to several languages in our school system when she was smaller.  She is now finishing her 4th year and will receive an Advanced Diploma when she graduates from High School in 2007.(and will have 5 years of Spanish)  Most colleges look for a secondary language or require it for admission.  But clearly if your child truly does not like the class I agree that something else should be offered to those students.  (Choir, Art, Self Defense)  Maybe you could approach your local school board with these questions or start with the teachers/principals.  I really wished that I had parental and educational guidance when I was her age, to send me or even encourage me to try something new.  I would be making more money with another language today, if I had taken spanish.  Good luck.

Why don't you post your question in Yahoo! Answers International (Mexico)? Maybe you will find a greater chance of getting a responce there. I never tried Yahoo! Answers International before but, it's a try. All the best!\np/s: Try using Spanish, maybe you'll get a number of responces
