Spanish grammar is complex and relies heavily on memorizing conjugations. Most Spanish learners find it relatively easy to understand Spanish grammar when reading or listening but struggle to use it correctly when speaking or writing. However, with the right tools and practice, you can master Spanish grammar. I recommend learning new grammar patterns through input and practicing proper grammar through writing. You can gather input through any Spanish language resource, such as books or TV shows. When you come across a new grammar point you don’t understand, copy and paste it into Google and write “grammar” after it. For example, let’s look up “por grammar,” like in the image below. You will see several websites with grammar explanations pop up.
Here I’m using the website Story Learning. When you open the website, you will see a quick explanation of the grammar point, including meaning, how to use it, and example sentences. This is pretty standard across most grammar websites.
If you scroll down a little more, you will see more example sentences with English translations.
You can copy a few of the example sentences into your Anki deck for Spanish sentences so you can review the grammar pattern again later. If you don’t have the Spanish sentences decks downloaded or don’t know how to use Anki, you can learn more through the links below.
If you are still struggling with the grammar of a sentence, you can ask ChatGPT to explain it to you. You may have to ask a few times in different ways to get the answer you want, but you can get a grammar explanation in English or Spanish.
Grammar Websites
Conjuguemos
Conjuguemos is a fantastic website for learning and practicing Spanish grammar through games! It is also completely free for students and individual learners, and you can use it with or without an account! If you would like to save your process and keep track of your scores, you can register for a student account. Where it asks you to enter your username, enter your email address instead.
Once you are in, click on “library” in the upper right corner to see all available practices. Under Spanish, click on the area you would like to practice.
There are lots of fun mini-games to practice your vocabulary or conjugations!
There are also quizzes and worksheets for you to practice your grammar! What you choose to practice is up to you!
Spanish Dictionary
Spanish Dictionary has lots of great interactive grammar lessons for every level! Just choose what you want to practice! All of the practices are clear and easy to follow with lots of exercises.
When you first start a grammar lesson, you will be given an explanation to read through, then you will do some practice to get used to using the grammar pattern. If you don’t have a main Spanish learning resource, I highly recommend Spanish Dictionary, as working your way through all the lessons in order is a complete Spanish course. However, if you already have a main learning resource, you can just do the lessons for the grammar you are weakest on.
Spanish Dictionary also has a conjugation practice tool, where you can practice verb conjugations. This is super helpful as conjugations tend to be the most difficult part of Spanish for most learners.

ProfeDeELE is a Spanish practice website for intermediate to advanced learners. The lessons are fully in Spanish with lots of exercises to help you practice and build confidence in Spanish!

Grammar Practice Books
Practice is a great way to get better at grammar, especially when it requires a lot of memorization like Spanish. Practice books are a great way to get a complete overview of Spanish grammar if you work your way through the entire book, or they can be used as a reference for difficult grammar.
Complete Spanish Step-by-Step
Complete Spanish Step-by-Step goes over everything you need to have a strong foundation in Spanish. You can work your way through the entire book or use the glossary as a reference to find sections you would like to review.
