I was going to put my response to this in Spanish, but unfortunately, I lack the bilingual keyboard on my desktop.
If you're nearby a local junior or community college, I would check to see what they have for evening classes and self paced computer based tutorial classes. If the local Hispanic community there is Mexican/Central American, that's a slower and clearer form of Spanish for the novice, AND those communities are often very gracious with people who are willing to pull out what Spanish they have and will often pull out what limited English skills they have. Currently, I spend the majority of my day in Spanish and frankly, wouldn't want it any other way. Almost without exception, I'm treated with respect and warmth.
