Learning Spanish Through Personal Stories: A Creative Approach for IB Students
At Cucu Spanish, we believe that language learning becomes truly effective when it connects with real-life experiences.
This week, our IB Spanish B and ab initio Spanish students worked on a creative project using a simple but powerful resource: a recent photo with their family or friends.

That image became the starting point for a full lesson covering:
- Personal information and introductions
- Questions and answers
- Irregular verbs
- Physical and personality descriptions
- Ser and estar
- Daily routines
- And even public speaking practice
Through this activity, students not only reviewed key grammar and vocabulary but also developed confidence in oral communication, a key skill for IB Spanish B oral exams and ab initio individual assessments.
By using personal materials, students feel more motivated and connected, learning Spanish in a way that is meaningful and memorable.
If you’re preparing for IB Spanish B or ab initio Spanish, our online lessons offer personalized support from qualified native tutors who understand the IB curriculum.
Whether you are based in Europe, the Middle East, or looking for ab initio Spanish tutors in Singapore, Cucu Spanish helps you achieve fluency and exam success through practical, engaging lessons.
