Your local library probably has a wealth of information.Make sure the books, CD's or tapes are "Latin America"spanish and not "Spain" spanish. Copy everything you need into a cheap 8 1/2 X 11 sprial composition notebook from the dollar store or Wal-Mart. Also there are many language resources on the web...see example links below.

You can also find "beginning" Spanish videos on youtube.com

Gracias, pero no necesito Chicles/muñecas/alfombras.

Phrases vary from country to country, not unlike English. Australians have a way of saying things differently from Irish or Canadians for example.
If you are talking about basic Spanish phrases then most phrase books will help you with that.
Buena suerte...
