Why students stay

Built around conversation, not memorisation.

Five reasons our students stick around — and why 4 out of 5 renew at the end of their first term.

Speak from day one

Forget passive listening. Our teachers run live, structured speaking drills every session — you'll order coffee in Spanish before week two.

Tiny groups, real attention

Max 6 students per group. Your teacher knows your goals and your weak spots — and we keep the same class together for the whole term.

Native, certified teachers

Every teacher holds an ELE or DELE Examiner certification, with at least 5 years of teaching experience.

Flexible schedule

30+ time slots across European, American and Asian time zones. Reschedule any class up to 4 hours before it starts.

More than grammar

Each week dives into Spanish & Latin culture — cinema, music, food, idioms — so you don't just learn words, you actually use them.

The method

Three steps from "hola" to fluent.

  1. 01

    Level test & goals call

    A free 20-minute call with a teacher to gauge your level, your goals (travel, work, family?) and pair you with the right course.

  2. 02

    Speak weekly with your teacher

    Two to three live sessions a week in your cohort. Conversation-led, no boring slides. We track your speaking confidence every month.

  3. 03

    Earn your milestone certificate

    Every 12 weeks you get a recognised CEFR-aligned certificate. Stop, switch tracks, or level up — your call.

Student stories

They came for a class.
They stayed for life.

"I tried three apps before this. After ten weeks at You Say Hola I held a 40-minute dinner conversation in Madrid. Worth every euro."

Marie Dubois
Product Designer · Paris

"The teachers actually listen. Sofía spotted my finance vocabulary gap in week one and built three sessions around it."

JW
James Whitaker
Finance Director · London

"Booked a free trial, stayed for a year. My 8-year-old asks for class on Saturdays. That's the highest praise I can give."

PS
Priya Sharma
Parent of a Hola Kids student

"Passed DELE B2 on the first try. The mock exams felt harder than the real thing — exactly the prep I needed."

TA
Tariq Al-Mansoori
Engineering Manager · Dubai

"Small groups make all the difference. Six people, one teacher, zero hiding in the back. I spoke more in week two than a whole year of school."
