Duolingo
Duolingo is across the board, the best learning tool available for learning languages electronically, in my opinion. It won app of the year on iOS and Android and it is available to use on a basic browser as well. It features many of the same components as Rosetta Stone, but for free.

Newsela
Newsela is an innovative way to build reading comprehension and vocabulary with nonfiction articles that are always relevant: daily news. It's easy, amazing, and it can be done in Spanish. You can lower the Lexile along the right-hand side to match your abilities and then quiz yourself in English or Spanish.
Music- Kevin, Karla, y la Banda
Music is a great way to learn a language. It builds vocabulary and an understanding of grammar structures. In particular, I've recently fallen in love with Kevin, Karla, y la Banda because they cover pop songs everyone knows. Because students have prior knowledge of what a song is about and they know all of the words, their videos are awesome because students can see how the Spanish translation compares.
The link will take you to the YouTube playlist for their cover song only, but they also do some really nice original songs as well.
