Welcome to Spanish From Square One

Inspired by input-based methods like Antimoon, AJATT, and the ALG method, this free course helps you learn Spanish, as it is spoken in Mexico, by reading and listening to natural conversations, not by memorising grammar or drilling vocabulary.

There's no speaking requirement, no grammar explanations, and no need to search for materials. Everything is here: a short conversation for every day with its English translation and simple guidance, so you can learn Spanish naturally and for free. Audio in AI voices is on the way.

The conversations sound like Spanish as people in Mexico really speak it, with the right way of addressing each person, a friendly tú or a polite usted: friends and couples, families and coworkers, shopkeepers and strangers, women and men, children and grandparents.

Just follow the lessons, day by day, and let your understanding grow.

Getting Started

• Before anything else, read the How to Use page. It explains how to get the most from this course.
• Take a few minutes with the sounds of Spanish first. Spanish spelling is very regular, so once you know how the letters sound, you can read almost every word aloud.
• Start with Day 1: read the dialogue and its translation, without worrying about understanding everything right away.
• Revisit lessons whenever you like. Repetition is natural and helpful.
