Some of the basic rules: Rocket spanish courses are way apart from other courses and you should never stall the proceedings. Any postponement is deemed as a failure in a foreign language course where you need to devote a minimum of 15 minutes a day for a minimum of 3 hours a week. Try to spend as much time as is in your hands but never devote more than 45 minutes per session when you are learning the language.
