some questions on spanish
In the sentence, "Cuando una leccion es acabado, la mando al colegio", do I use the subjunctive 'sea' or the indicative 'es'. Does the 'cuando' at the start require the subjunctive form?
How do you say "I look forward to..."?
How do you say "home study course"?
Gracias

Hi there.
You would use estar and not ser. I don't think you'd use acabar, that means to run out and you are wanting to say finished. So, to write the sentence in the form you've used you'd say 'Cuando una lección está terminada...'
I think, and we'd need to verify with a native, that you'd more likely say 'Cuando se termina una lección...'
There may be verbs other than terminar that are suitable.
As to whether you use subjunctive or indicative, my understanding is that it depends on whether you know when the class will finish (indicative) or whether you want to say something like 'when the class is over, whenever that might be, I (will) send her to college' (subjunctive).
Search this site for different ways of saying 'to look forward to', it's doesn't translate directly.
Ni idea re. 'home study course'.
Welcome.
Also, it's not obvious to me what you are trying to get across. It often helps if you write your piece in English too.
