Learning a language in the host country is the best way to learn. I also took a Spanish language course during my time there at a private college which helped me more with the grammatical aspects. In general, I learned most of my spanish from socialising with other Spanish students and interacting with them and not as much in class.

During my 6 months stay in Cordoba, I was really surrounded by french people, and I improved my spanish slowly. While after that period, I went to Madrid to make an intership of 6 months. And that is why I do speak good spanish now.
