unless you dont like reading then listen to a bunch of stuff
In my experience the key to speaking is listening, listening, and then listening some more. Studying grammar for years will do nothing for real time communication, you need to internalize how the language works at a subconscious level. Binge some movies and TV series with English subs, then repeat with Spanish subs, then no subs.
That makes sense!
Grammer is also just waaayyy less fun to actually study. I feel like it's a lot easier to get myself to listen to something than to like drill grammer
Movies and TV for grammar and pronunciation, books for vocabulary.
Conceptos elementales del materialismo histórico by Marta Harnecker for all of the Communist words, for example.
