Year one gets a teen speaking. Year two, the guide says, teaches them to be worth listening to. Spanish II has five units and 18+ hours at about 30 minutes a day. The method is the same, but Clara speaks much more Spanish and will disagree with your teen on purpose.

The five units

Saying More Than You Did Last Year, seven weeks. Telling and Explaining, seven weeks. Opinions That Hold Up, eight weeks. Other People's Worlds, seven weeks. Talking Like Yourself, seven weeks.

Length comes first

The guide calls length the real gap between a first-year and second-year speaker. Unit 1 breaks the one-sentence habit: linking sentences, describing someone well enough to recognize, asking questions that keep a person talking, and talking for two minutes without stopping.

Explaining sorts the past tenses

Unit 2 has your teen tell a story that jumps around in time, explain how something works or why it happened, give instructions and warnings, and report what someone else said. The guide says past-tense endings still come out wrong well into year two, and Clara still does not correct them directly.

Arguing in Spanish

Unit 3 gives an opinion with a real reason, argues both sides, disagrees without being rude, answers an objection, says something carefully when unsure, complains, and talks about what you would do if things were different. It ends by holding a position for a whole conversation.

Speech that is not slowed down

Unit 4 treats regional differences, speaking to a stranger versus a friend, awkward requests, news, films and songs, and following a conversation that is not aimed at your teen. Unit 5 covers humor, fixing mistakes mid-sentence, hopes and regrets, plans after school and explaining their own culture.

What this is not

It is not for a complete beginner. The guide says the prerequisite is being able to introduce yourself, talk about your week and say what you did yesterday, not a grade in year one.
It is not easy in the first two weeks. The guide warns that this year runs in much more Spanish from day one, so expect a fortnight where it feels harder than June.
It is not a grammar course. Clara never explains grammar and says wrong answers back correctly, as the guide describes learning a first language.

What grade(s)? (so their first lesson is ready)

Before your child starts: what we collect and why

We collect only what it takes to teach your child: the first name and sign-in you choose, their answers and progress, and their chat with Clara (written by Anthropic's AI, read aloud by OpenAI). Nobody trains AI on it or sells it, and you can see or delete it any time. You create your child's account yourself. Ticking the box below is how you, as the parent, give consent.

Read what we collect and why

Your consent is needed before we collect anything from your child, and we collect nothing without it. You create your child's account yourself; they never sign up alone.

What we collect from your child: the first name and sign-in you choose, their answers, time on lessons and progress, and their chat with Clara. Used to run the lessons, build their transcript and show you how they are doing.
Who else handles it: Anthropic writes Clara's replies from the chat, the lesson and your child's first name. OpenAI turns lesson text and Clara's replies into the read-aloud voice. Spoken answers are turned into text on our own server and never sent anywhere. Our email provider sends you reports. Nobody sells your child's data or uses it for anything else.
Your rights: see everything collected from your child, have it deleted, or stop further collection at any time, from your account or by emailing our support address. If you refuse the sharing above, Clara cannot teach, so the service cannot run. Chats are deleted after 30 days.
Safety: if your child writes something suggesting they may be hurt or in danger, we email you and the owner of Letters & Devotion the same day.

Ticking the box below is how you, as the parent, give that consent. Full details, including how long we keep each thing: Privacy Policy (version 2026-10-09).

I am this child's parent or guardian, and I agree to the above.

Free for 30 days. No card. When the free days end, lessons pause unless you choose to subscribe, $29 a month for every child in the family. Nothing is ever charged without a card.

By continuing you agree to the Terms and Privacy Policy.

Questions parents ask

What if Spanish I feels rusty?

The guide says to repeat unit 1 rather than push on. It also says the first fortnight feels like going backwards after a summer, and usually comes back within about three sessions.

Will this show up on a transcript?

The guide says colleges look for two years of the same language. The dated list of what your teen has demonstrated serves as evidence for the second year, though whether a given college accepts it is for you to check.

Do I need Spanish myself?

No. The progress page shows your teen's level, how much of the conversation is now in Spanish, and what they have demonstrated. Free conversation stays open outside the modules.

What does it cost?

$29 a month or $290 a year for every child. The first 30 days are free with no card.
