Spanish Past Tense Masterclass
Your blueprint for understanding Spanish past tenses
Why It Works
The real differences between the preterite tense and the imperfect tense are unfortunately still a mystery for most Spanish learners, and even many teachers, which causes learners to struggle in a sea of inaccurate descriptions and misleading rules.
In order to master the usage of these tenses, it is essential to understand the concept of static and dynamic events, and the concept of time reference, and be able to apply them to real language examples.
The Spanish Past Tense Masterclass...
"I'm now confident using the past tenses."

JORGE SIVIT
Founder of Light On Spanish and creator of the Spanish Past Tense Masterclass
I've been a Spanish teacher since 2003. Since the beginning of my career, I've been helping Spanish learners understand the differences between the different Spanish past tenses. I worked for two years together with some of my students to put my methods into a self learning course before I released the Spanish Past Tense Masterclass in 2017. And I personally answer any questions from students going trough the course.

You'll easily see what the difference between the imperfect tense and the preterite tense is, so you'll start to express yourself more clearly.

You'll discover that there isn't just one imperfect tense, which actually makes things much easier.
