(1) Watch Spanish TV/Movies
(2) Talk in Spanish to Spanish-speaking people (use appropriately)
(3) Learn the easy small words first
(4) Immediately apply and integrate what you learn with what you already know.
Note: The Spanish I learned in high school was enough for me to be able to speak and understand it fluently (6 semesters). Also note that I can understand several different languages fluently. This may have helped me learn faster than most other people. I say understand because my American accent is too thick to be able to speak in all of those languages with the proper accent.
