The 90-Minute Plan

Identify Problem Sounds0–15 min

Listen to yourself speak Spanish. Identify which sounds are hardest (likely 'r', 'rr', 'j').

Mouth Position15–35 min

Learn correct mouth and tongue positions for Spanish sounds. Practice trills and guttural sounds.

Shadowing Practice35–55 min

Listen to native Spanish speakers and try to shadow (speak simultaneously). Match their rhythm.

Stress & Intonation55–75 min

Practice Spanish stress patterns. Notice rising intonation in questions vs statements.

Record & Compare75–90 min

Record yourself saying phrases. Compare with native speakers. Refine specific problem areas.

Pro Tip

Spanish 'r' and 'rr' are distinct sounds. Spend extra time here as they're common accent markers.
