Spanish for English speakers

You do not need perfect Spanish to have a good conversation. You need enough words, a willingness to listen, and a teacher who will help you use both. We build practical Spanish around the situations you care about.

From €25 per lesson with the ten-lesson package (€250 prepaid).

The situations we build around

  • Conversation for travel, family, work, and everyday life in Spanish-speaking places.
  • Pronunciation and listening, with the accent and vocabulary you are most likely to meet.
  • The confidence to make mistakes in public and keep going, which is the actual skill.

For English speakers who want to stop translating

If you can read more Spanish than you can say, we give speaking enough room to become normal. We start with familiar situations, build reusable phrases, and gradually make the conversation less scripted.

The bridge: cognates and false friends

English and Spanish share thousands of Latin-derived words, which makes reading Spanish feel easier than speaking it. Pronunciation, verb endings, and a few notorious false friends bring the challenge back. “Embarazada” means pregnant, not embarrassed. We make those differences explicit, then practice Spanish as a speaking habit rather than a decoding exercise.

escuela/school

A straightforward shared Latin root.

gracias/grace

Both travel back to Latin gratia; the common meaning has drifted.
