Spanish Verb Workbook for Beginners: A Step-by-Step Guide to Spanish Verbs, Conjugation, and Tenses (Lingo Studio Spanish Learning Series)

THE ENGINE OF SPANISH. MASTER IT.

Verbs are the beating heart of every Spanish sentence. Without them, you can't express actions, ask questions, share feelings, or describe your world. With them, everything becomes possible.

Most verb books bury you in dry conjugation tables and move on. This one doesn't. The Spanish Verb Workbook for Beginners is your step-by-step adventure guide through every essential verb, tense, and mood you'll actually use in real life — from ordering coffee at a Madrid café to describing your past, planning your future, and expressing your opinions with confidence.

Structured in 3 clear parts across 17 chapters:

PART 1 — THE PRESENT TENSE: Talking About Now (Chapters 1–7)
Build your foundation with regular and irregular verbs, reflexives, modal verbs, stem-changing verbs, and the essential ser vs. estar distinction. Master the verbs that power everyday conversation.

PART 2 — EXPANDING YOUR TIMELINE (Chapters 8–14)
Travel through time. Learn the Preterite for completed past actions, the Imperfect for what used to happen, the Future and Conditional for plans and possibilities, verbs with prepositions, and a gentle introduction to the Subjunctive mood.

PART 3 — INTEGRATED PRACTICE (Chapters 15–17)
Apply everything in real-world scenarios. Chapter 15 puts verbs into everyday situations. Chapters 16 and 17 offer a comprehensive review by chapter and mixed practice by difficulty and theme — so you can test yourself the way real Spanish actually works.

Every chapter includes:
