Hi Nasia. Welcome to the forum. 
To find out the word for the past tense word "was" in Spanish you'll need to know the verbs for "to be." Estar means to be, as in "estoy en el parque." Also, Ser means to be, as in "Soy estudiante."
Here’s a link to an article in the Reference section on Ser and Estar, both of which mean "to be."
Once you make up your mind whether you want "ser" or "estar" you can click at the top of the page "More" > "Conjugation" .

Era is what is used for was...in certain context. Yo era joven...I was young. But my wife says yo sigo joven.
