General Language Resources

  • Free Absolute Beginner Course – 3 Months of Access: If you are looking for a language program, I recommend the Pod101/Class101 programs that teach Japanese, Korean, Spanish and more (check if they have your language of choice.)

But they will close it down in the future.

I have decided to learn Russian and Spanish at the same time. Will I be at risk of mixing them? The best book to learn Spanish is -A Good Spanish Book- according to the rankings, but which book should I pick for Russian? I haven’t seen any rankings for those.
