Gailcalled is right,
I think that of all languages, Spanish is the easiest to learn for an English speaker. Mind you I mean the first 50% of a language.
I think that you will get used to nouns being masculine or feminine, the adjectives following the nouns and having to agree with the gender of the noun, the sounds.
What I found difficult were the verbs. The endings in the present were not too bad there are what 12 tenses in Spanish. But you really don’t need many more than four or five to get along in Spanish.
The other advantage to learning Spanish, at least in the US, is the presence of many Spanish speakers in every state. Try to find a lot of speakers of French in Idaho or German in North Carolina, but you can find people whose first language was Spanish in every state.
The key to learning a foreign language is practice. Try talking to people at work or school who speak Spanish. Do it every day, Stop them if they switch into English. Not the conversations you need for work, just small talk, current events, how the Mets are doing.
Practica cada dia. Muy importante
