The page is divided into three parts. First you can learn the most common ways to say "Hi" in Spanish. You could continue with the phrases for "How are you". And lastly situated is the "Goodbye" vocabulary. On the bottom of the reading you can see an example dialogue consistent only of greeting expressions.
Take into account that in Spanish there is one greeting that includes "Good afternoon" and "Good evening" in one. Instead of two different phrases you just turn to speak "Buenas tardes" in both of the cases.
Spanish | English |
---|---|
¡Hola! | Hello! |
¡Buenos días! | Good morning! |
¡Buenas tardes! | Good afternoon!/Good evening! |
¡Hola a todos! | Hello everyone! |
¡Hola a todo el mundo! | Hello everybody! |
Take online language lessons with a professional teacher
Except of just saying "hi", it's important to query "How are you".
Spanish | English |
---|---|
¿Cómo estás? | How are you? |
¿Qué tal? | What´s up? |
¿Cómo está (Usted)? (formal) | How are you? |
¿Qué pasa? | What´s up? |
¿Cómo estamos? (more informal) | How are you? |
In Spanish culture it's not so common to begin to complain when someone ask you "How are you". You´d rather answer "Muy bien".
Spanish | English |
---|---|
¡Muy bien! | Very well! |
¡Estupendo! | Great! |
¡Perfecto! | Perfect! |
Más o menos. | So so. |
No puedo quejarme. | I cannot complain. |
You can use "Hasta luego" and "Hasta pronto" in case you will see the person soon and "Adiós" and "Hasta la vista" for a long-term separation.
Spanish | English |
---|---|
¡Hasta luego! | See you later! |
¡Adiós! | Goodbye! |
¡Que tenga(s) buen día! ¡Que tenga(s) buena tarde! | Have a nice day/afternoon! |
¡Igualmente! | Same to you! |
¡Hasta la vista! | Goodbye! |
¡Hasta pronto! | See you soon! |
¡Un abrazo! | A hug! |
Let´s represent a simple conversation, consistent only of greetings:
Ramón: ¡Hola, Raul! Hello, Raul!
Raul: ¡Buenos días, Ramón! Good morning, Ramon!
Ramón: ¿Qué pasa? How is it going?
Raul: Todo bien. Y tú, ¿Cómo estás? Everything's OK. What about you?
Ramón: ¡Estupendo! I'm fine!
Raul: Bueno, ¡que tengas un buen fin de semana! Great, have a nice weekend!
Ramón: ¡Igualmente! Same to you!
Congratulations! After this lesson you are supposed to be prepared to have a small talk in Spanish. Practice it here with the microphones, the exercises or go out and practice outside! Don´t forget the kisses and hugs as a considerable part of the greetings. ¡Vamos!
¡Un abrazo!

My name is Laia, and I am an infant and primary school teacher, specialized in additional languages. This year I have finished my second degree in Early Childhood Education. Previously, I had completed my degree in Primary Education in English. This last year I have combined my studies with a job in the reception classroom of a school. My main aim was to teach newly arrived pupils the official languages of my country and helping them to adapt to their new environment.
In addition, I have been an English teacher and monitor with students of different ages. I can adapt to my students, looking for the best way to individualize their learning.
Furthermore, I did the 120 hours course with TEFL this summer as I decided to delve more deeply into teaching English as a foreign language to help my students in a better way.
I would describe my classes as dynamic and entertaining. The aim is that during the first class we get to know each other so we can find out what your needs and goals are.
For my classes, I will use different materials that I used in my previous jobs, for example, games, role plays, flashcards, grammar summaries, or sample exams.
Finally, I would like to talk about my hobbies so that you can get to know me a little better. I am passionate about art and sea sports. I love watching films and series of any kind of genre. I also enjoy reading, especially when it is a mystery or action.

Hello! I am an English and Spanish teacher and a language lover.
At university I studied translation and interpreting in Spanish, English, Russian and French and have been a language teacher since 2013, which is something I love.
I have lived in France and have British and Spanish family, so speaking several languages is something I do and enjoy every day. I love conversation, grammar, studying new vocabulary and learning about the differences between cultures in order to learn from them.
I have taught privately, in academies, in primary schools and high schools and in companies, so I have experience in many areas and with all ages and levels.
I have prepared students for official Cambridge, Trinity London and Aptis exams, but I have also helped to prepare for exams specific to some university degrees.
I have also prepared students to take the Spanish DELE exam.
I adapt very well to the needs of each student and I make almost all the materials I use and adapt them to the specific situations of each student.

Hi, I'm Francesca
I have been teaching Italian to adults since 2010, individual and group lessons. I have a degree in English and French, and I have a diploma of interpreter in German. In the summer I teach Italian in full immersion courses in Tuscany, where I live.
I really enjoy helping people to learn more not only about Italian as a language but also the rich Italian culture.
Usually I divide my lessons into three parts: a bit of grammar (which is unfortunately very useful...but I can teach you some tricks to learn without much effort!), a listening/reading comprehension part usually with videos, songs, docs about Italy and then ... we talk about Italy!
I will provide all material, and I'll send them by email.

I base my lessons on your preferences. Would you like to speak better? No problem, so I'll look for nice pictures or newspaper articles for you that we can talk about.
Would you like to go deeper into grammar or do you always run into the same questions? I will explain the rules in a way that you can understand them so that you will learn the German language with more fun and success.
I have a great passion for languages and people. In Switzerland I gave a course for German as a foreign language and it was a nice experience. I also gave typing lessons to adults and so have a lot of experience in classrooms.
After that I followed a training course as a trainer for adults and now have a SVEB EUROLTA Diploma. Here in Eindhoven I also work for a language school and because I really love this work, I would like to give more lessons.
Reading, writing or speaking - do you find that difficult? Then we will work together to make it easier for you!

Hello, Spanish learner! I am Isabel, your Spanish teacher.
I am a professional online Spanish teacher for 3 years. I am a native speaker from Colombia.
My lessons are completely in Spanish because I want you to speak as much as possible. During my lessons, we will focus on conversation and pronunciation. But a typical lesson also contains a vocabulary topic and a grammar topic.
I will focus on your needs and your mistakes to improve your Spanish as quickly as possible. In the first lesson, we will do a level test to check your current level (CEFR A1, A2, B1, B2, C1)
If you would like to improve your Spanish, learn more about the South American culture, gastronomy and traditions, I am your teacher! Or if you just want to talk in Spanish, about any subject you like, I would be happy to meet you online.
Send me a message and I will provide you a 30-minute free trial lesson!
See you online on Skype.
Your Spanish teacher, Isabel

I am Susana or just call me Su, I grew up in Venezuela but my family is from Portugal, and I have been teaching in Madrid since 3 years ago. According to my students I am patient, dedicated and arrive to each class with a positive and happy attitude. As a teacher I am optimistic and enthusiastic and always try to transmit a boundless energy and yet straight-forward -guide. I know how to handle the change for different situations and to be flexible to every one according to their needs and goals.
The classes are a wonderful balance of textbook work and general speaking and reading, which is great to help with pronunciation and real life Spanish conversations.
The only I ask from students is that they want to learn and to share their stories as I will
I hold a Certificate in Teaching Spanish as a Second Language from Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru. My bachelor degree is Modern Languages from Universidad de Margarita but still I am learning everyday speacially from my students.
I started my experience as an assistant Spanish teacher at CELA Spanish School in Margarita island, eight years ago. Then I moved to London for one year and worked as one to one Spanish tutor. Today I am currently living in Madrid and work as a Spanish Teacher
on line. Hope I can meet you and help you in this beautiful process. See you soon!!!

Her teaching materials are good and she also does a great use of online tools.

Laura is a great Spanish teacher ! She is patient and adaptes any of her lessons according your demand and level. I could have improved my pronunciation, my vocabulary and my grammar in Spanish thanks to her. I also felt free to ask anything about Latinoamerica as learning more about colloquial expressions from there. She made structured, personalized, attractive and completed Spanish courses ! I strongly recommend her !
