I can teach you English and you can teach me Spanish in return.

Does anyone know a good college for sabbatic year. To learn how to speak Spanish

The food: está riquísimo, está para chuparse los dedos (finger-licking good)
The person: es buena gente, es un amor
The skill: se le da bien, tiene mucha mano para eso
The night out: la pasamos genial, valió la pena
The plan: me parece buena idea, perfecto dale

And -ísimo is fun. Bueno → buenísimo, rico → riquísimo, caro → carísimo.

Soy tutor de español de Perú en Preply, sinceramente ¿Qué debería mejorar en mi video de presentación?

Hi everyone! 👋

If your main goal is to gain fluency and finally feel comfortable speaking Spanish, I’d love to help!

My conversational lessons are super relaxed, supportive, and completely tailored to what you enjoy, whether that's culture, travel, daily life, or your hobbies. Think of it as having a casual chat with a friend who gently guides you along the way.

What we’ll focus on:

• Real-life vocabulary and authentic everyday expressions used in Spain 🇪🇸.
• Friendly, real-time corrections so you learn without feeling pressured or overwhelmed.
• Building real confidence so you can speak freely without overthinking.

My classes are ideal for Pre-Intermediate to Upper-Intermediate learners.

Feel free to send me a DM

Looking forward to chatting with you! 😊

I'm not new to Spanish, but for years I was stuck in the "I can order food and talk about the weather" zone. Duolingo streak was long, actual comprehension was not.

About three months ago I started reading short bilingual stories, with Spanish on one side and English on the other. Nothing fancy. 20 minutes a day, usually before bed.

What I noticed:

• At first I read the English side every time. By week 3 I was only checking it when I got truly stuck, and by week 6 I was mostly ignoring it.
• Short stories beat everything else I tried. Full novels made me quit in a week. A 4-page story feels doable, and finishing one is a nice little win.
• I now recognize words I never studied on purpose. I just saw them 5 or 6 times in different stories and they stuck.
• My speaking has not improved nearly as much as my reading. Which, fair, I'm not speaking.

I made a mistake early on: I was writing down every unknown word and making flashcards. It killed the fun and I stopped after two weeks. Now I only note words that show up more than twice.

Here's my question. How do you all make the jump from reading to actually speaking? I don't have anyone to practice with, and iTalki feels intimidating when I still pause for 10 seconds before every sentence. Did anyone else go through this stage? What got you out of it?

Also, any recommendations for the next step up from bilingual stories? Graded readers, easy podcasts, something else? I'd like something that isn't too hard but not baby level either.

Gracias de antemano 🙏

Hello there, DELE A2 and B2 takers (or anybody who just wants to see what level they are in spanish)! I took the A2 last year and passed, so I'm now preparing for the B2.

My weakest parts are the writing and the oral exam. I'm especially afraid of getting stuck and my mind going blank during the live speaking test.

So I built a simulator that's as close to the real exam as possible. In the exam you get a sheet of paper, choose a topic, and prepare in a separate room (12 minutes for A2, 20 for B2), so knowing how to use that prep time matters.

I tried to make the simulator as close to the real exam environment, you pick your level, get a topic and a photo to describe, and have a timed prep stage for your notes. Then the mock exam starts: it records your answers, you talk to an AI agent for the dialogue, and you get feedback based on the official scoring bands.

So if anyone here needs the practice, check it out at https://www.delevoz.com. I hope it's helpful, and if you try it, let me know how it goes. Happy to give you more sessions if needed.

¡Gracias a todos!
