Beginner Spanish

Spanish is the second most-spoken language in the world and one of the most valuable skills an adult can add — for travel, career opportunities, cultural connection, or simply the joy of a new language. Beginner Spanish is a welcoming, practical course for adults starting from zero, focused on the vocabulary and grammar you need to actually communicate rather than just pass a quiz. Students learn greetings and introductions, numbers and everyday expressions, present tense verbs, and the core sentence structures that make real conversation possible. Every session is interactive and focused on speaking and understanding — because the best way to learn Spanish is to start using it from day one.

Spanish Sounds and Pronunciation Spanish is famously consistent: once you know how each letter sounds, you can pronounce almost any word you read. You'll get comfortable with the vowels, the rolled r, and the ñ from the very start.

Greetings and Introductions Say hello, introduce yourself, and ask the questions that get a conversation going, along with when to use the formal usted and the familiar tú.

Numbers, Dates, and Times Count, give a phone number, talk about prices, and tell time, plus the days, months, and dates you need to make plans.

Ordering and Shopping Order food and drinks, ask what something costs, and handle everyday shopping with the vocabulary you'll actually hear in restaurants and stores.

Getting Around Ask for and follow directions, talk about places around town, and handle common travel situations with confidence.

Everyday Conversation Talk about your family, your routine, and your interests while building your own sentences with noun gender, articles, and present-tense verbs.
