Find Private Spanish Lessons in Durham

There are four core sentence types in Spanish: statements, questions, commands, and exclamations.

• Declarativas state information, such as "El libro es interesante" (The book is interesting).
• Interrogativas request information and require the distinctive Spanish question marks.
• Imperative sentences (oraciones imperativas) give commands or instructions.
• Exclamativas show feelings and always use inverted exclamation marks.

Mastering each type improves your ability to communicate clearly in any context.

• Lesson length and frequency (weekly, twice weekly, or intensive courses)

Start with the alphabet: Spanish has 27 letters, including ñ, and each letter has a consistent sound.

After pronunciation, build a core vocabulary of 50–100 high-frequency words and simple phrases.

• The verb "ser" expresses identity and permanent traits: "Soy estudiante" (I am a student).
• The verb "estar" indicates location and temporary states: "Estoy cansado" (I am tired).
