Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our lessons.

I’m a complete beginner. Is that okay?

Yes, absolutely. We specialize in teaching adult beginners from A0. You do not need any prior knowledge of Spanish to start.

Do I need a textbook?

No. We provide all the necessary materials, explanations, and exercises digitally. If you prefer to have a grammar reference book, we can recommend some, but it is not required for class.

What happens in my first lesson?

The introductory lesson is 50 minutes. We will get to know each other, discuss your goals, assess your current level (if you have one), and do a short practical exercise so you can experience the teaching style.

What language do you use during class?

For beginners, explanations of complex grammar are given in English to ensure complete clarity. As your level progresses, we gradually transition to using more Spanish for instruction. Conversation practice is always in Spanish.

Where are lessons held?

All lessons are held one-to-one on Google Meet. Your teacher will email your private meeting link before the lesson. If you require another platform for accessibility or technical reasons, please contact the teacher before booking.

How long is each lesson?

Each private lesson is 50 minutes long.

Can I reschedule?

Yes, you may reschedule a lesson if you notify us at least 12 hours in advance. Changes requested with less than 12 hours' notice may be counted as a completed lesson. Exceptional emergencies are handled manually on a case-by-case basis.

How will payment work?

Choose an available time in your timezone and pay securely through PayPal. Your booking is confirmed after payment is completed.

Do I need PayPal?

Payments are processed by PayPal. The payment options shown at checkout depend on PayPal and your country; if PayPal asks you to sign in, you will need a PayPal account.
