Speak Spanish Online — Conversation Classes with a Native Teacher from Madrid

Speaking Spanish ​is hard​

But not for the reasons you think.

But Not for the Reasons Your Spanish Teacher Told You"​

It’s not because of your grammar.

or because you are bad with languages
Or even your accent…

It’s hard because you freeze.
You overthink.
You panic.
And when it’s finally your turn to speak,
your mind goes blank.

But guess what?

No one actually cares
about your mistakes
but you.

I always freeze when it’s my turn to speak…
but will I actually be able to have a real conversation on my next trip to Colombia?
I understand so much, but when I try to respond, my mind goes blank…
will I be able to sit at a café in Madrid and just talk without panicking?
I’m tired of smiling and nodding because I don’t know what to say…
will I finally be able to joke with my girlfriend’s family in Argentina this Christmas?
I hate the sound of my accent…
will I ever speak without feeling embarrassed?
I avoid speaking because I don’t want to make mistakes…
will I be able to order food, ask questions, and stop overthinking every word?
I get stuck translating everything in my head…
will I ever speak without mentally building the sentence first?
I feel like everyone is better than me…
will I ever feel like I belong in the conversation?
I’ve started learning before and quit…
will this time actually be different?
I’m scared people will switch to English the second I speak…
will I be able to hold the conversation long enough that they don’t?
I don’t just want to “know Spanish.”
I want to use it.
To connect.
To live in it.
Will I actually get there?

YES

The answer 

is always

Spanish is ugly at first


Awkward. Broken. Frustrating. Embarrassing.

It only gets better
when you’re not alone.

This is not a course.
This is not a method.

Not an app.
This is not another promise of “fluency”.

This is an entry point
into Spanish as it’s actually lived.

Messy. Human. Used.

 

This is NOT for you if:

You like traditional classes with grammar drills
You believe you can “learn Spanish in a weekend”
You want shortcuts, hacks, or fluency promises
You think learning a language is a task to finish
Spanish doesn’t work like that.
And honestly… neither does life.

Is This Online Spanish Program Right for You?

This is for you if:

You know learning to speak Spanish takes time
You want to use the language, not just study it
You enjoy stories, culture, and real conversations
You’re not in a rush, you’re in it for life
 

Learn Spanish Online with a Teacher Who Gets It — 11 Years of Real Experience

This is REAL Spanish.

You’re not stuck because you’re bad at Spanish.

You’re stuck because no one taught you how to actually use it.

Hi, I’m Mónica.
And after 11 years teaching Spanish…

I’ve seen the same mistakes again and again.

Not stupid mistakes.
Invisible ones.

 

The ones that keep you understanding…
but never speaking.

Mónica Bernabé Pérez, online Spanish teacher at BlanBla

I have been teaching Spanish for the last 11 years
This is What My Students Have to Say

I absolutely love Monica’s teaching style as it makes it so easy to learn Spanish in a practical way. By telling stories and using news, ads and music we’re able to easily process the language to learn to understand what’s being said. Personally I find this way of teaching to be easily digestible. Highly recommend this school if you’re looking to learn Spanish!

I always enjoy Monica's classes - she is a highly qualified Spanish teacher and examiner, she has an interesting approach to the language through current affairs, films and culture, and she is very supportive, especially through moments when progress feels slow.

Monica is the gentlest and most patient Spanish teacher I have ever had. She provides guidance when I need it, but she never makes me feel bad for not knowing how to express myself. I highly recommend BlanBla for anyone looking for Spanish classes!

Monica goes above and beyond for her students. She has amazing language strategies. With her you are not only learning Spanish but you also feel and breathe the language. She gives you a lot of insides and is a fantastic storyteller. I learnt so much about the culture, traditions. She teaches through movies, books, news, music and food.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do online Spanish classes cost?

My 1:1 private classes are $35 AUD / €21 per session. If you want to join The Spanish Tribe — my group programme — it's €250 / $412 AUD every 3 months. No long-term commitment, no card needed to start.

Can I learn Spanish online as a complete beginner?

Absolutely. I've taught complete beginners for 11 years and they all start the same way — nervous, unsure, convinced they're "bad at languages." You're not. You just haven't been taught to actually speak yet.

What's the difference between private Spanish lessons and group classes?

In private lessons, everything is built around you — your level, your goals, your pace. In the group, you practise with other learners in a small, relaxed setting. Both focus on real conversation. Neither involves grammar drills.

How long does it take to learn to speak Spanish?

Honestly? It depends on how often you practise. But most of my students feel a real shift within the first few weeks — not fluency, but confidence. That's what changes everything.

Are online Spanish lessons as effective as in-person classes?

In my experience, yes — sometimes more. You get a native teacher from Madrid, flexible timing, and all sessions are recorded so you can replay them. The only thing missing is the commute.

Do I need to be good at grammar to join?

No. I don't teach grammar — I teach you to speak. If you can string a few words together in Spanish, you're ready. If you can't yet, that's fine too.
