Yes
Bien is an adverb and so modifies a verb
Bueno is an adjective and so modifies a noun
Bien= well
Bueno= good
Although in English at times we use good when we should use well, it is not correct usage.
In the sentence:
I speak Spanish well- the well is indicating how the Spanish is spoken; I speak it well.
In the sentence:
I speak good Spanish- the good is indicating what type of Spanish is spoken- good Spanish is spoken. You cannot say I speak good it; and if you say I speak it good, you are using incorrect English.
Yes, in both English and Spanish, good (bueno/a) is an adjective and well (bien) is an adverb. Pienso la forma correcta es "Hablo español muy bien." However tha sounds a little boastful. "Habla español muy bien" would be complimentary.
