Direct Action on Places
Unlike English, which sometimes uses 'to go to a place often,' in Spanish you just put the place immediately after the word. No 'a' or 'en' is needed when talking about a location.
The 'Personal A' with People
If you are 'frequenting' (hanging out with) a specific person or group of people, you must use the word 'a' before them, like in 'frecuentar a mis amigos'.
Adding extra prepositions
Mistake: “Frecuento en el gimnasio.”
Correction: Frecuento el gimnasio. (Don't use 'en' or 'a' for places; the action goes directly to the noun.)
