"I am now 6 weeks in to spanish lessons with barbara and i could not imagine a better tutor - she is really funny, intuitive and very accommodating! i was a total beginner and she has made learning the (very complicated) basics really easy and enjoyable to learn. barbara puts a lot of effort into creating special content that is personalised to my learning style and my spanish needs, which makes the lessons really fun. i see barbara more as a friend teaching me spanish rather than a tutor. muchas gracias barbara!"

"I feel so lucky to have found alex as my spanish tutor. we started our lessons via zoom, back in november. i live in toronto, and he's in spain, but he's always been very accommodating with my changing schedule, our 6h time difference, while also managing his schedule with numerous other students. alex always has a lesson for the day ready, and he emails me notes regularly at the end of the lesson. being a teacher myself, i have very high expectations from a teacher, and alex meets them very well; he listens to my needs well, always challenges me (which i really appreciate, as some teachers will just give the answer when a student is stuck), shares cultural knowledge about spain, and makes himself available through whatsapp for any questions. alex is always punctual, and quite frankly, his classes have been affordable enough for me to be able to have lessons twice a week since november 2022. we have mostly switched to conversational practice now, where i am putting into practice the many concepts he's taught me, such as the present tense, present continuous, past tenses (perfecto and indefinido), the simple futur and near futur with 'ir +a', pronouns in perifrasis verbales, prepositions, along with lots of vocab and expressions. i look forward to learning the subjunctive and imperative tenses with him, in addition to a lot more. alex has such a warm personality that at this point, i consider him a friend alongside being my teacher. i look forward to our lessons and to continue learning with him. i also hope to meet him in-person in spain, when i move there next month. muchas gracias, alex, por todo lo que tu haces! ya he aprendido mucho contigo!"

William, Spanish learner in Amsterdam

June 2023

"Four months ago, my girlfriend invited me to her sister’s wedding in oaxaca. i would be meeting her entire family for the first time, and so it was important to me to be able to carry on a basic conversation in spanish. having only had 3 years of high school spanish (12 years earlier) i was pretty nervous, but gabriel is a great teacher and he really put my mind at ease. using a personalized lesson plan with an emphasis on live conversation, he helped me develop my speaking ability before i attended the wedding. we spoke twice a week for an hour and a half, and gabriel gave me homework assignments and supplied me with useful vocabulary. given our somewhat limited time table, gabriel curated high yield lessons by teaching linguistic foundations that occur often in conversation (presente perfecto, pluscuamperfecto, objecto directo/indirecto, etc.), while also reviewing phrases/pieces of conversation specific to my circumstances (i.e. small talk at the wedding). while i didn’t have time to expand my speaking ability to an advanced level, gabriel got me to a point of feeling confident in navigating the language independently (without help from my girlfriend), and we practiced how to handle misunderstandings while speaking. by the time i left for the wedding, i felt confident carrying on small talk as well as asking for directions, asking for help at the airport/hotel, and ordering at restaurants and bars. i made a great impression for my girlfriend and her family. beyond that, i believe my grasp of the language made my trip to mexico more fun and more meaningful than it might have been had i felt stifled by the language barrier. understanding my girlfriend’s mother tongue also deepened our connection. if you take lessons with gabriel, you are in good hands. ¡feliz aprendizaje!"

Spanish FAQs

What are the Benefits of Learning Spanish with a Private Tutor?

Learning with a private tutor means you get to learn at your own pace, ask questions whenever you choose and get undivided attention. If you join a group class, you may experience Spanish lessons that are either too slow or go too fast for you.

Here are some top benefits of learning Spanish with a private tutor:

Customized Spanish classes

It's true that people have different learning techniques and styles which are in accordance with their learning skills. Although we all have a blend of learning styles, there is a primary style of learning.

For instance, traditional Spanish classes may focus too much on your vocabulary and quizzes. However, if you're not so good with quizzes, you may get the impression that Spanish is difficult or you'll never get to be fluent in it.

When you take lessons with a private Spanish tutor, you can discuss your preferred learning style with your tutor. Also, your tutor will use the best method of explaining difficult topics to you. Private tutoring helps you to be comfortable while learning and not be put under pressure from being with other students.

It offers better results

One benefit of having a private Spanish tutor is that it allows you to concentrate, offering better results. According to studies, where you take classes can determine how much you'd learn.

How Many People in the World Speak Spanish?

Like Italian, Romanian, Portuguese and French, Spanish is a Romance language. By Romance, we do not mean it is a language of love (although we must admit that many people find Romance languages romantic), it means that the language evolved from Vulgar Latin.

Spanish has its root in the Iberian peninsula which is situated in southwest Europe (present-day Portugal and Spain). Spanish was formed by the Castilian continuation of Vulgar Latin mixed with the Moors' Arabic dialect. After many years of both languages being mixed, standard Spanish was birthed in the 1200s.

In the world, there are over 450 million native Spanish speakers. Right behind Spanish is English with about 360 million native speakers, making it the third most spoken language in the world. Additionally, Spanish ranks as the third most studied language in the world coming after French and English.

Adding to the number of native Spanish speakers, there are about 75 million people in the world that speak Spanish as their second language. Although the US has about 12 million bilingual Spanish speakers and 42 million native speakers, it is the second country with the largest Spanish speakers (Mexico is first). According to a study, there are predictions that the US will overtake Mexico to be the largest Spanish speaking country by 2050.

One of the 24 official languages of the European Union is Spanish. It is also spoken by a small number of people in countries like Germany, the UK, Italy and France.

Is Spanish Difficult to Learn?

Let's compare learning a new language to being an athlete. Athletes make it look easy on the field but they have put hours into their sport practice and at times where they really felt like giving all up. Like being an athlete, to learn any language at all, you have to understand it's not easy. However, the fact it's tasking doesn't mean it's difficult.

To learn Spanish, you need plenty of practice, dedication, enthusiasm and talent. Also, your knowledge of a second language can determine how easily you learn Spanish. Learning a new language becomes easy if you've learnt one or two languages before.
