Engaging Spanish lessons with creative focus

My whole life I shared a deep admiration for my language tutor, most in particular my Spanish and my English ones. It was incredible to me how different learning a language can be depending on your own native language. In my case, I grew up in Madrid (Spain) so my first language has always been Spanish and English my second. Having grown up speaking Spanish doesn't mean it isn't necessary to learn the language from a more specific approach. And the truth is that it is a beautiful language. Due to this realisation over the years and as I grow in my professional career, I have always had a soft spot for languages and always wanted to teach them. I first jumped into this journey when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. I thought how many people would still need help with their progress on their language journeys and so I started teaching online. Despite of momentarily stopping from teaching a year ago, I have never forgotten about the wonderful time I had with my students and knew I would get back to it eventually. Here I am! Incredibly excited to meet you all and start our learning journey together.

Your guide to learning Spanish in Los Angeles

Mastering Spanish in Los Angeles: Everything you need to know

Mastering Spanish in Los Angeles: Everything you need to know

Learning Spanish in Los Angeles is a smart move. The city follows the California World Languages Standards, ensuring structured learning across schools and institutions. Plus, with 36% of L.A. households speaking Spanish (U.S. Census), you’re surrounded by opportunities to practice—whether for work, travel, or everyday life.

That said, Spanish has its challenges. Grammar rules, gendered nouns, and verb conjugations can feel overwhelming. Pronunciation adds another layer of difficulty, especially when distinguishing between Latin American and European Spanish accents.

If you’re looking to certify your skills, exams like CLEP Spanish, AP Spanish, DELE, and CSA are key. Universities like UCLA and USC also offer placement and certification exams.

To prepare, explore resources like Los Angeles Public Library’s Spanish programs, Instituto Cervantes, and UCLA Extension courses. Many learners turn to private tutoring for personalized guidance. Events like Feria del Libro en Español offer real-world practice.

The best approach? A mix of structured learning, tutoring, and cultural immersion—all easily accessible in L.A.


Essential ways to study for Spanish learners in Los Angeles
