In class when our teacher asks us how are day is going, after we tell her, she says tambien. On the street this spanish lady was talking about what she wanted to have done when she got home and her response from the other woman was tambien, tambien.
It seems as though it means "very well" or some other form of "ok". Does anyone know what i'm talking about because others dont.

I imagine that to the untrained ear it would not be out of the ordinary to mistake the expression "está bien" (a phrase which when pronounced might sometimes come out sounding like "'tábien") for "también"

Lol that might be so! Actually, I think you may be right! I'll continue though to pay close to attention to her pronunciation and use of words! - kuddah, Oct 21, 2013

More context is needed.

- Spanish Lady 1: I would like to have my house clean when I get home.
- Spanish Lade 2: Me too! Me too!
It fits just fine with what you heard.
