James Spanish School

James Spanish School (JSS) is an online language school tailored for English-speaking adults moving to or living in Spain. Led by James Bretherton, an English-born, Spanish-educated dual native speaker, JSS offers a simplified, very practical approach to learning Spanish, as spoken in Spain – designed for real-life conversations, not exams.

 

Students build sentences naturally, without grammar jargon, and can quickly gain confidence speaking with locals. The course focuses on sentence structure and speaking and listening skills. Cultural insights – and its humour – make lessons engaging and memorable.

 

The 100-lesson programme includes 170 videos, downloadable notes, quizzes and 75+ hours of spoken practice modules to boost comprehension.

 

Students can learn anytime, anywhere, and progress at their own pace. Advanced learners aren't held back and strong tutorial support ensures questions are answered quickly. JSS has a cast-iron guarantee offering extra practice if needed.

 

Also included is WordAmigo, the AI tool, which enhances memory retention with adaptive flashcards and pronunciation testing – helping learners reach a conversational level of a Spanish youngster with vocabulary that grows more adult over time.
