Everyone wants to speak fluently, but the fastest path to speaking better... is listening better.

Here’s why:

• You can’t speak what you haven’t heard.
• Listening trains your ear for rhythm, stress, and melody of a language.
• You subconsciously acquire grammar rules and pronunciation without memorizing them.

Most people skip listening practice because it feels passive. But it’s foundational. Even babies listen for months before saying a single word.

Make listening your primary input. Focus on real Spanish - not robot voices. You’ll notice your speaking improves without trying so hard.

Here’s how to make it stick:

• Listen with subtitles first, then without.
• Rewatch your favorite video in Spanish until you understand 100%.
• Mimic what you hear. Repeat full phrases, not just words.

Parrot makes this easy. Every video you watch is native-level Spanish, broken down with real-time translations and tools that help you revisit phrases naturally.

If you want to speak fluently, start with your ears.
