Do you want to learn listening comprehension? speaking? reading? writing? All four? What you want to learn has a big effect on the best way to learn...another way to put it is what are you goals - do you want to understand spanish tv, read arabic web sites, etc. What level of proficiency do you want to achieve? That also is really important. Basic communication is _much_ easier than becoming fluent...

Without knowing in more detail what you are interested in, its hard to suggest methods, etc.
