<p>Do you have any advice for doing well in spanish? I had a A but it just dropped to a B because I got a D on the last test :( My class is tough because my teacher barely teaches during class. She spends too much time discussing class procedures...I want to bump my grade up again and do well on the tests. I appreciate all advice.</p>
<p>Well what exactly is it that you're not good at? Vocab? Grammar? Reading comprehension?</p>
<p>Also at which level do you stand?</p>
<p>I'm in Spanish level 2. (This is the same as 3-4 at many public schools) I know all the vocab because I make flashcards. I'm great at translating too. It's the grammar I don't get. The toughest part for me is doing the different tenses correctly; conjugating. It's frustrating because I never get to see my graded tests :( I just log on to grade book and see 66% on my test and 85% overall...My grade dropped 7%!</p>
<p>I'm in Spanish 3 and I also used to struggle with conjugations/grammar (esp. those damn stem-changing verbs). Anyway, I bought this book called 501 Spanish verbs (shows you the conjugations for 501 verbs in pretty much every tense) and it really helped me with grammar. Conjugations are pretty much memorization and after a while you'll understand it just fine, like vocab.</p>
<p>maybe you could watch spanish tv for while. just listening to them say things correctly should help after a while.</p>
<p>hpa10, watching spanish tv would not help her at all, atleast confusing her even more...</p>
<p>conjuguemos.com IS AMAZING!</p>
<p>Try it, you do conjugations on there and it's AMAZING. All I have to say.</p>
<p>hey dude unless you want to become a spanish teacher or do something spanish related don't worry about it. Focus on the other more important classes.</p>
<p>1)English</a> to French, Italian & Spanish Dictionary - WordReference.com</p>
<p>2)type in any spanish vocab word.</p>
<p>3) Press Conjugar</p>
<p>4) ?????</p>
<p>5) Profit!</p>
<p>actually yes, watching tv would help. my friends do it all the time and they speak grammatically correct. it helps you not to sound really awkward when you speak.</p>
<p>I remember when I was taking Spanish, every time the class learned a new tense, I would find a pattern that all the words would follow (such as changing the ending of all verbs ending with "er" to "iendo" for the active present tense, or whatever it was called) and memorize that pattern. It was pretty useful and not hard and I had straight A's in Spanish. </p>
<p>Try that.</p>
<p>I'm with hpa10. Especially for irregular verb forms, knowing what things are supposed to sound like is very useful. I learned Spanish by listening to it (immersion), and I would never say or write and</p>
<p>Wow thansk for the great advice everyone! Conjuguemos.com sounds great. This should definitely help, especially for my next test! :)</p>
<p>This site from a spanish professor at Colby College is really helpful for reviewing grammar before tests:</p>
