Who is business Spanish for?

People who deal with Latin American or Spanish clients, suppliers or colleagues, anyone moving to a Spanish-speaking office, and teams in export, tourism, education and agritech who need to be understood rather than polished. Lessons are one to one, or can be shared by two colleagues at the same level.

  • People with Spanish-speaking clients, suppliers or colleagues
  • Anyone moving to a Spanish-speaking office
  • Export, tourism, education and agritech teams
  • Professionals who need to sound confident, not perfect

What does a business Spanish lesson cover?

Your tutor starts from your real work: the meeting next week, the email you need to send, the client you have to phone. You rehearse those, learn the formal and informal registers Spanish speakers switch between at work, and build the vocabulary of your own industry, with lessons at your office, a café near work or online.

Rehearse the real thing

Bring the meeting, the call or the email you have coming up. You practise it with your tutor before you do it for real.

Tú or usted

Spanish at work moves between formal and informal. Your tutor teaches when each fits in the country you deal with, which a general course rarely does.

Your industry's words

Freight, dairy, software, hospitality or education. Your tutor builds vocabulary from your own documents rather than a generic business textbook.

Which Spanish levels do you teach?

We teach 4 levels, A1 to B2: from introducing yourself and ordering food at A1 up to holding a real conversation with native speakers at B2. Your tutor confirms where you are in your first lesson and tells you what comes next.

  1. A1Order a coffee, say who you are, ask for directions
  2. A2Get around on holiday, talk about your week
  3. B1Chat with your partner's family, follow a slow podcast
  4. B2Hold a real conversation, work in Spanish

Questions about business spanish

Do I need some Spanish already for business Spanish?

It helps to be at about A2, able to talk about your week and your work in simple sentences. If you are starting from zero, begin with beginners lessons and your tutor moves you onto work topics as soon as you are ready.

Can my employer pay?

Yes. We can send the receipt for a pack to your employer, and a pack can be bought by the company and used by one learner.

Can two colleagues share a lesson?

Yes, if you are at a similar level. Tell us when you book the trial and we will match a tutor who can take you both at the same time.

Can lessons happen at my office?

In Auckland and Wellington, yes, including at lunchtime. Everywhere else, lessons are online with the same tutors.
