    • About this course

    This all levels languages course offers 60 hours of instruction. By the end, you'll be able to build core vocabulary and everyday conversation skills; understand key grammar structures and verb conjugation; practice speaking and listening through guided conversation; progress at a pace suited to your level. Every course on TutorA is reviewed by our team before it's published, and every request is matched by a person — not an open marketplace where anyone can pitch you.

    Structured to work for both newcomers and learners with prior experience in languages.

    What this course covers

    • ser vs. estar distinction
    • subjunctive mood: quiero que, ojalá, es importante que
    • preterite vs. imperfect past tense split
    • dialect differences: Mexican, Argentine, Castilian

    Two things tend to separate an intermediate Spanish speaker from someone genuinely comfortable in the language: the ser/estar distinction and the subjunctive mood. Both trip up self-taught learners not because the rules are hard to state, but because applying them correctly depends on context an app can't test — recognizing when a change of state calls for estar rather than ser, or when a subordinate clause needs the subjunctive because it expresses doubt, wish, or emotion rather than plain fact.

    A tutor can catch these in the moment, in a sentence you're actually trying to say, rather than as an abstract grammar exercise on a screen.

    Session structure on TutorA varies by starting level. Early on, tutors typically build vocabulary and present-tense conjugation around situations you'll actually use — ordering food, asking directions, introducing yourself — since rote vocabulary lists rarely stick without a communicative context behind them. As you progress, sessions shift toward past tenses (the preterite/imperfect split is a common point where English speakers need real, repeated practice, since English doesn't grammatically separate a completed action from an ongoing one the same way) and toward the subjunctive triggers that recur constantly in natural speech: quiero que, es importante que, ojalá.

    Pronunciation correction — rolled r's, the position of stress in words that change meaning depending on it — happens throughout rather than as a separate unit, since a tutor hears it live rather than reviewing a recording after the fact. If your goal is a specific dialect, since Mexican, Argentine, and Castilian Spanish differ meaningfully in vocabulary and some pronunciation, mention it when requesting a tutor so sessions reflect that rather than a generic textbook standard.

    Why a TutorA tutor

    Spanish is one of the most-covered languages on self-paced apps like Duolingo and Babbel, plus structured courses on Coursera. Those are useful for vocabulary drills, but they can't hold a real conversation with you or correct your pronunciation in the moment. A TutorA Spanish tutor gives you live 1:1 conversation and correction, matched to your actual level and goals — exam prep, travel, conversational fluency — rather than a fixed app curriculum. Every tutor is reviewed before being matched, and pricing is shown before you book.

    Spanish Language Course tutoring FAQ

    No — tutoring is matched to your level, from complete beginners to learners who want to refine fluency.

    Yes — let your tutor know your goal (conversation, grammar, exam prep, a specific dialect) and sessions can be matched accordingly.

    Yes — mention your child's age and level when requesting a tutor so sessions can be paced appropriately.

    Apps are self-paced and can't hold a real conversation with you; a live tutor listens, corrects pronunciation, and adapts to what you're actually struggling with.

    No — TutorA courses are live tutoring, not self-paced video lessons, so there's no certificate of completion.

    Yes — mention your preference, or a specific country's dialect, when requesting a tutor. Mexican, Argentine (Rioplatense), and Castilian Spanish differ in vocabulary, some verb forms like the vosotros conjugation used mainly in Spain, and pronunciation, so naming your target variant up front helps your tutor match it rather than defaulting to a generic textbook standard.

    Yes — the subjunctive is one of the most common places live correction helps, since choosing it correctly depends on the meaning of a full sentence rather than a fixed rule you can memorize in isolation. A tutor can point out, in real time, why a sentence like espero que vengas needs it while sé que viene doesn't.
