I'm sure you've had the same look on your face as Emily when a Spaniard starts talking to a friend. Don't worry, it happens to all of us when we start learning a language. The most important thing to do is to get through that phase when you don't understand anything, however frustrating it may be, and to do this, it is best to select the content with which you are going to learn the language. It should be as pleasant and attractive as possible so that you don't lose motivation.
