The european students learn Spanish in Spain and I think that your Spanish must be understandable to all Spanish speakers.

The problem is where you are going to learn Spanish. If you learn Spanish at the street it will be bad because you will learn Spanglish but not Spanish neither from Mexico neither from Spain.

P.D.: I hope that you understand what I want to say.

I’m a spanish woman and I speak here with people from Costa Rica, Argentina, MEXICO… and NO PROBLEM

your "mexican spanish" is latin american spanish. It is different from "spain" spanish. For example, manzanas in latin american spanish menas apples, but in spain it can sometimes mean a street corner.Also, pronunciation is different. I would learn latin american spanish because it covers a wider amount of speakers (ie: colombia, puerto rico, cuba, etc...) rather that just one country (spain)

Mexicans will hate me for saying this, but the spanish from spain is a much more beautiful language, vacathyon etc as opposed to the sort of staccato spanish from Mexico. Still, latin american spanish would be more useful in TX.

As for rolling your r’s, it’s really a matter of practicing until you get it right.

Is like american speaking and british speaking. In this case the american could be the mexican and the british the spanish of spain.

There are few differences like the pronunciation, (the s, c and z)

I think is better the spain spanish.
