You should hire a tutor. CDs/books can be very helpful. But with a tutor at your side, you can receive help and answers you just can't get from a book or CD. Tutors are generally fluent in what ever language they're teaching. They should be able to teach you about specific dialects within the language.

You understand and be understood better if you take the time to learn local dialects. What's important is that a tutor will help you to understand the casual use of certain words. Books/CDs usually only offer the formal teachings of language. Yet a tutor can teach you to talk in slang words. You can go online! You'll soon discover the internet is just full of helpful hints to learn Spanish. One such very helpful website is, Babelfish. It will translate for you.

Spanish and English sentence structures are different, so it's important to remember that. Using the translation tool will help you understand how the sentence structures are different. There are other tools available on the net to help make learning Spanish a little easier.

You really can achieve fluency with right practice. Don't worry about you look or sound, it's important to always practice speaking Spanish. Even if you aren't great at putting together whole sentences, using the words you know in place of your native language regularly will help commit those words to memory. If you're learning Spanish, try using "uno" for "one" and "cena" in place of "dinner," The words will feel like second nature to you, in time. Then you'll understand the words when you hear them spoken. You'll find that to be very helpful when you converse with people in the language you're learning.
