So, you want to learn Spanish, right?
In 5 minutes a day, you say?
Can it be done? Can you learn a whole language? No.
But, yes, you can learn a little bit of Spanish in 5 minutes a day. In fact, it’s smart to do that. You listen to an audio lesson for 5 minutes today. You get used to it. You repeat tomorrow and for the next year. And suddenly, learning Spanish isn’t so bad…
…it’s now easy! Because you’ve gotten used to it! Because, you started learning a little bit a day.
So, here’s how you learn Spanish in 5 minutes a day.
1. Listen to Spanish Audio Lessons
- Time required: 3-5 minutes a day
Imagine you’re going to work. You open up your phone, you press play and listen to a lesson.
You hear a conversation, the teachers explain all the words… and you’re done. That’s it.
Listening to “audio” is the easiest way to consume Spanish. Now, where can you these “mystical audio lessons?” Here.
Here are some examples of quick and easy lessons from SpanishPod101.com – a Spanish learning program.

3. Get the Daily Dose of Spanish Lessons

What’s this Daily Dose?
it’s a language learning app.
Every day, it sends you a reminder to check your new lesson.
And these lessons are quick and cover anything from slang, culture to words or phrases.
Just a little bit of Spanish to keep you interested and learning.
I like this App because it keeps me on my toes and always has something new.

4. Learn Spanish with Duolingo
- Time required: 5 minutes a day
Speaking of apps, here’s another one.
Now, Duolingo is NOT a serious, complete learning program.
It’s mostly matching games and fill-in-the-blank quizzes.
You won’t learn to speak fluidly with it.
But, you will learn words and phrases. Tons of people love this app because it’s very game oriented.
So, it’s value is in getting you hooked on learning. If anyone gets you going – whether an app, a book or audio lessons -stick with them. Duolingo may do that for you too.

5. Learn Spanish with Video Lessons
- Time required: 5 minutes a day
Video, like Audio, is an easy way to learn.
You just press play and watch and listen to Spanish. Now, what you need are the 5 minute lessons.
I want to suggest YouTube here but I won’t.
Why?
Are you low on time? Do you want 5-minute learning resources? And do you honest-to-god want to learn Spanish? If you answered yes, YouTube is a bad fit.
See, that’s because YouTube primarily entertainment and will distract you into watching other things. Yes, you’ll have fun but you’ll waste your time and not learn anything.
Instead, I’ll suggest these video lessons. Just click on the images below.
If you’re keen on learning Spanish with “cartoons.”
This is a big one. There are 50 lessons inside.
That is it for now!
Now you know some fun and easy ways to learn Spanish in 5 minutes.
Why should you try and learn Spanish in 5 minutes a day?
Because it is easy to do!
Do you know why that is so IMPORTANT for SUCCESS?
Simple. Things that are easy to do, are easy to continue… and finish! If you can learn some Spanish today, tomorrow and 4 weeks down the line without problem, you’re on your way to fluency.
But, if you choose a Spanish textbook, which ends up being hard, you won’t continue.
So, starting easy sets you up for long term success.
At some point, you’ll think that 5 minutes is not enough. Which is good! At some point, you’ll feel you’re ready for 10 minutes. And so, you’ll add more time just like someone at the gym will add more weight because they’re ready to do more.
And that is how you’ll master Spanish.
Done!
