Hola from Jordan! :D

[Reeba]

Salam there (Salam literally means "peace" and it's the common greeting in Arabic) :)
My name is Abeer and I'm from Jordan. I'm fluent in English and I'm a native Arabic speaker.
I'd love to learn Spanish and I'm seeking any help as a beginner until I'm able to sign in December course in the Spanish Cultural Center in Amman (Cervantes).
Please anyone who can help me with finding the best way to learn the basics in Spanish I'll be so much appreciative and I'll help anyone in English or Arabic if interested? ;)
Thanks a lot in advance :o

Hola. Have you come across Wikibooks? http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Spanish might be helpful. (It might not. I've never used it, because I learnt Spanish at school).

Welcome Reeba, I'm a beginner of Spanish too. (French native speaker)

[Reeba]

Oh pixel! I took French in school when I was 10 years old... and now the only useful thing I can remember from it is: "Je ne parle pas français"!!!
It's shocking how quick you can learn and forget a language :( I hope I can work on my French as well!
I remember some basics... sometimes when I watch French TV (TV Cinq) I don't have to read subtitles all the time as I can actually understand most of it :)
I hope I can get back what I lost and build more upon it.. maybe after I get to a decent Spanish level I'll start refreshing my French :D

Welcome, Reeba :). Are you able to speak Spanish or you've never studied this language before?
