Well, for Mexico it's no problem. They will understand you but laugh frequently at your pompousness. Don't let it get to you.
For Belize, well, the official language is English. I'm not sure how much Spanish is actually spoken there, or what kind of Spanish it is.

I have been thinking about finding a Spanish pen pal to help (and me help with their English) as that is the only way I'd be able to speak with a native speaker other than to go there, which isn't an option atm. I know there's no substitute for living in a country that speaks it but I'm trying to do my best without that  .

You could also try to make friends on Skype.
Good luck again.
