In this episode, we talk about the real reason Spanish practice is hard to stay consistent with — even when we’re committed and excited. We break down the science of motivation, the right way to use rewards without killing intrinsic motivation, and how to build a daily Spanish habit that actually lasts. And at the end, I give you a FREE 21‑Day Spanish Practice Toolkit to help your family start strong.

After collecting over 75 Spanish textbooks and workbooks in 25 years of teaching, I found myself facing a tough reality: I wasn’t actually using them. Despite their glossy pages and perfect layouts, they just didn’t meet the needs of my students—or support the kind of teaching I knew made a real difference.

In this heartfelt and behind-the-scenes episode, I’m sharing why I walked away from traditional Spanish textbooks and how that decision led me to create what I now call a "living Spanish curriculum"—an interactive, evolving, student-centered approach to learning that’s built to serve both students and homeschool parents.

You’ll hear:

Whether you're a new homeschool parent or have been learning Spanish, this episode will encourage you to think differently about what really works in Spanish education—and remind you that your child doesn’t need perfect resources… they need intentional ones.
