you must get a FILIPINO TUITOR so that you can learn fast.
and also try to watch and listen some FILIPINO movies and musics. And also try to listen to your friends (that speaks Filipino).

I’m glad you’re wanting to learn tagalog. check your local library if they have any tutorial books on tagalog.

If you’re parents are interested, you can purchase Rosetta Stone’s software: http://www.rosettastone.com/personal/languages/tagalog

It’s pricey but they may be willing to buy it for you. Also, some library have this on hand.

Check Youtube.com and search for "tagalog tutorial"

(I love you!) Kumusta ka? (How do you do?) Paalam na po. (Good bye!) Ala-ala kita (I always think of you!)
