Finding the Course for You

Starting to learn a new language is both exciting and intimidating .
Finding a course that suits yourself and your pocket can be exhausting in itself, before getting onto the actual learning and practice.
I am tired of being told that the only way to learn a language is this way, or that way and it seems everyone is an expert on how you should learn, without taking into account that we are not all the same .
Some like to learn phrases and have that ability to repeat parrot fashion a set phrase at the flick of a mental switch. Others like to be able to construct sentences, grammatically perfect, while others dive head first into utterances and see what develops by trial and error to make themselves understood.
