Market Opportunity
Spanish is the second most-studied language globally. Learners finish Duolingo and still can't hold a conversation. An affordable, friendly Spanish conversation club with native-speaking facilitators fills the massive gap between app-learning and fluency.
The Idea
Create '¡Hablamos! Spanish Conversation Club.' Multiple weekly sessions at 3 levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced). Themes rotate: travel Spanish, food and culture, current events, music and film, business Spanish. Native-speaking facilitators guide conversation; AI generates vocabulary prep sheets. Charge $29–49/mo.
Key to Success
- Hire native speakers from Latin America and Spain as facilitators — authentic accents and cultural knowledge are the product
- Use AI to generate pre-session vocabulary lists and post-session review materials
- Create 'Immersion Weekends' — 2-day intensive with multiple sessions, cultural activities, and cooking classes
