A few recommendations and suggestions for ways to learn Spanish from anywhere in the world. I hope this inspires you to try again!  
Immersive Language courses are available all across the globe, locally and internationally. Try your community college and look online for private schools. Ask on community FB pages too for others’ suggestions.
Lingoda.com for Zoom based conversational classes, flexible schedules, decent prices.
Duolingo - pros and cons of using this app. 
Word search apps. I use Palabras on an iphone.
Podcasts such as Learn Spanish and Go with May and Jim.

(P.S. It’s a little confusing but this is a new season yet I’m keeping the numbers going for the episodes. I’m calling it Season Two as the new focus in on my own personal travels, the places and people I meet, life on the road as well as offering excerpts from short story collections and published books of mine, stuff you won’t hear elsewhere.)
