Frequently Asked Questions

Thinking seriously about learning Spanish?

Here’s everything you need to know about how Learn Spanish works - and why our blend of human teaching and intelligent technology helps students progress faster and with more confidence.

What kinds of Spanish lessons do you offer?

We specialise in online, one-to-one Spanish lessons taught by qualified, native speakers.

Each lesson is personalised to your level, objectives, and learning style - whether you’re learning for travel, work, exams (GCSE, A-Level, DELE), or pure enjoyment.

We also offer Spanish for beginners, intermediate, and advanced learners. Small-group and family lessons are available on request.

Our lessons combine expert human teaching with optional AI-powered analysis to make every minute count.

Can I learn Spanish online - and is it really as effective as in-person classes?

Yes - and usually more effective.

Online lessons give you the same personal interaction as face-to-face classes, with added flexibility, comfort, and global reach.

You can learn from home, the office, or while travelling, without needing to commute or host teachers.

Modern video tools such as Zoom make lessons highly interactive - with audio-visual explanations, chat for written practice, and shared notes for feedback.

Our tutors are trained to use this environment to its fullest, keeping lessons warm, dynamic, and truly conversational.

Who are your teachers?

All our teachers are:

Native Spanish speakers from Spain or Latin America.
Fully qualified, holding recognised ELE (Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language) or DELE (Diplomas of Spanish Language) certifications.
Experienced professionals, not hobbyists - many have university degrees in Spanish, linguistics, or education.
Personally interviewed by our Learning Director, who oversees curriculum quality, teaching style, and personal fit.

Because we work online, we can recruit the best teachers globally, not just those who happen to live nearby.

Do you follow a structured curriculum?

Yes. Our default curriculum is Aula Internacional, the professional curriculum from Campus Difusión, trusted by universities and the Instituto Cervantes.

It’s aligned with the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages), which defines internationally recognised levels from A1 (Beginner) to C1 (Advanced).

For those specifically targeting GCSEs, A-Levels or DELE, we will work to specific, personalised plans toward exam success - bearing in mind the student’s strengths and weaknesses and the specific exam board.

All of this ensures that every lesson builds measurable progress and that you can prepare for official exams or certifications at any stage.

What makes Learn Spanish different from other platforms or apps?

We combine human expertise with intelligent technology - never one instead of the other.

Our proprietary AI-enhanced feedback system analyses lesson inputs (spoken and written Spanish) to detect patterns in vocabulary, grammar, and fluency.

It evaluates progress using CEFR standards - the same criteria used by professional examiners - and provides precise insights that guide both teacher and student.

This analysis happens quietly in the background. It’s optional, private, and simply makes your teacher’s feedback sharper and more personalised.

If you prefer traditional teaching without the tech layer, that’s absolutely fine - you can add or remove this feature at any time.

What is the CEFR and why does it matter?

The CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) is the global benchmark for language proficiency.

It divides ability into six levels - A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, and C2 - covering listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills.

Using CEFR standards means your progress is measurable, transferable, and comparable worldwide.

Our teachers plan lessons and evaluate your development using this same framework - ensuring real, recognised progress.

What technology do I need for lessons?

Just a computer, tablet, or smartphone with a camera and reliable internet connection.

We use Zoom (or similar) for live video and chat, which allows for:

Clear audio-visual interaction.
Screen sharing for explanations and exercises.
Chat for written practice and corrections.
Easy sharing of homework, notes, and materials.

If you ever need help setting up, we’ll guide you step-by-step. Most students are up and running in minutes.

How long are the lessons and how often should I take them?

Most students choose:

60-minute sessions - the standard format for steady progress.
90-minute sessions - for intensive learning or exam preparation.

We’ll recommend a schedule based on your goals and availability. You can learn once a week, twice a week, or intensively if you want faster results.

How much do Spanish lessons cost?

Prices depend on lesson length and package type. See our pricing page for more detail.

We’ll confirm your rate after understanding your needs and matching you with the right teacher.

Discounts are available for block bookings, and there’s always a free introductory session before you commit.

Can children learn with you?

Yes. Many of our teachers specialise in Spanish for children and teenagers.

Lessons are interactive, fun, and adapted to the learner’s age, attention span, and goals - from early exposure to school-level exams.

All tutors are fully vetted and DBS-checked where required.

Is my privacy protected if lessons are recorded for AI feedback?

Yes - always.

Recordings are processed securely and used only to generate your personal learning report.

They are never shared externally and are deleted immediately after analysis.

The AI system exists to support your teacher - not to replace them.

Learn Spanish combines native, qualified teachers, CEFR-aligned curriculum (or personalised GCSE, A-Level or DELE plans) and optional AI-powered analysis to deliver structured, flexible, and personalised online Spanish lessons.

It’s the most efficient way to learn Spanish seriously - combining the human warmth of expert tutors with the precision of intelligent technology.
