Get better at Spanish. Reading and writing, I’m hovering around an A2 with decent vocabulary.

I want to be able to speak and listen at at least a B1 by the end of next year. We will be spending a bit over a month in Costa Rica next year and I want to get as immersed as possible.

Work related get better at pre-sales. Currently, I’m a staff architect at a cloud consulting company leading post sales implementations. While there is some ambiguity when it gets to me, for the most part I know the shape of the business problem they want to solve, working in pre-sales has a higher level of ambiguity. They can’t outsource pre sales since it involves travel

My wife is going to work with a Spanish tutor remotely who lives in Costa Rica and then work with her in person when we get there.
As far me, I learned a little in school decades ago so I knew basic grammar. DuoLingo gives me a guided learning path to explore. But I use ChatGPT to create drills like creating sentences using words and phrases “at an a2 level using present and past tense verbs” using whatever I need to practice.
I practice speaking using Apple’s voice to text and not ChatGPTs voice to text since it is a lot less forgiving.
