🇪🇸 Spanish practice guide

Build answers you can say naturally, then practise the conversation and role play together.

Start practising Spanish

Choose your practice route

Higher Level is selected by default. Choose Ordinary Level if that is your course. Use Study Mode to explore vocabulary, grammar and optional speaking prompts; return to Exam Practice to answer independently. You do not need to include every study point in one answer.

Conversation: answer, develop, personalise

Choose a topic and listen to the question. Give a direct answer, add a reason or detail, then a personal example. Use past or future language when the question calls for it. Select Corregir Respuesta, read the feedback and say your improved answer aloud without reading it.

Role plays: communicate every instruction

Open Roleplays and choose a scenario. Read the Candidate Card, play the examiner audio and reply to each turn. Check that you communicate every requested point, including any question you must ask. The fifth response includes an unseen question: listen and answer what you hear. At the end, use the feedback for all five responses to repair missing information and unclear language.

Full mock: follow the complete route

Select Start Full Mock Exam and choose three of the five role plays. The app asks six conversation questions: four general topics, one past question and one future question. It then chooses one of your selected role plays at random. The final indicative result combines conversation out of 70 and role play out of 30. An optional opinion extension may appear; it does not change the conversation mark.

Example: make a short answer more useful

Me gusta el fútbol porque es divertido. Juego con mis amigos los sábados. El fin de semana pasado jugamos en el parque. This adds a reason, a personal detail and a past example. Use your own details, and include the past example only when it fits the question.

Speak, dictate and listen

Add the Spanish keyboard in your device settings. Tap the answer box and use the keyboard microphone to dictate, or type your answer. Set dictation to the language you are speaking and check that the transcript matches your words before submitting. If audio is silent, check the device volume and whether your browser has a suitable language voice. Try another browser or device if needed. The “listen to my answer” control reads the submitted text using a synthetic voice; it does not replay a recording of you.

Use feedback to improve your next attempt

The AI reviews your submitted text. It cannot reliably assess your pronunciation, pace or live interaction from a transcript. Treat scores as practice estimates. Check suggestions that seem doubtful with your teacher. Choose one useful correction and one phrase, then answer again aloud in your own words.

A 15-minute practice routine

  1. 3 minutes: choose one topic and prepare a few useful words or a structure in Study Mode.
  2. 5 minutes: answer aloud, submit your response and read the feedback.
  3. 4 minutes: repeat the answer without reading, then practise one more question or task.
  4. 3 minutes: note one improvement and one target for next time.
Use a separate session for a mock. Try the same topic on another day to see whether you can answer more independently.

Before your next session

  • I can understand the question and answer it directly.
  • I can add a relevant reason or example.
  • I have practised one correction aloud.
  • I know which task or topic to practise next.
