Free online courseSpanish Verbs for beginners

Course Description

Clear verbs are the difference between knowing Spanish words and actually communicating. This free online course helps beginners build a solid foundation by making Spanish conjugation feel predictable, usable, and easy to practice. You will learn how to form sentences that sound natural in everyday situations, whether you are introducing yourself, talking about where you are, describing how you feel, or explaining what happened in the past.

You will start by untangling one of the biggest beginner challenges: choosing between ser and estar. Instead of relying on confusing rules, you will develop an instinct for when Spanish uses each verb and how meaning changes depending on your choice. From there, you will strengthen your skills with regular -ar, -er, and -ir verbs, so present tense patterns become automatic and you can focus on expressing ideas rather than memorizing endings.

As you progress, the course guides you through common irregularities that learners encounter early on, including high-frequency verbs used in daily conversation. You will also work with stem-changing verbs, helping you recognize what shifts in the verb and when. Past tense is covered with practical emphasis, so you can describe completed actions, tell simple stories, and understand how Spanish talks about permanent characteristics versus temporary states in the past.

To keep learning active, the lessons are paired with questions and exercises that reinforce key decisions and forms. You will also gain confidence with reflexive verbs and meaning-based choices such as saber vs conocer, plus useful verbs that unlock more natural phrasing as your Spanish grows. By the end, you will have a stronger command of core verb systems and a smoother path toward reading, listening, and speaking with real-world accuracy.
