comparing my level at 1000 hrs of learning spanish to where the dreaming spanish roadmap thinks I should be, and discussing where i feel like my experience has coincided with or departed from their outline.
important note: i did NOT use dreaming spanish!!! and this is no criticism at all to dreaming spanish or what they're doing - great things!, just found it really interesting to discuss the differences between their map & my experiences :)
