Do you mean you want to say “I was” in Spanish, or “I was in …” (somewhere), or that you were in a Spanish class/place? I can help either way. Quick guide:

- “I was” (general)
- yo fui — preterite of ser (used for completed events, e.g. “I was a teacher” = Fui profesor).
- yo era — imperfect of ser (ongoing/repeated past, e.g. “I was shy as a child” = Era tímido).
- yo estuve — preterite of estar (completed past, often location or temporary state, e.g. “I was at home” = Estuve en casa).
- yo estaba — imperfect of estar (ongoing/description in the past, e.g. “I was tired” = Estaba cansado/a).

- “I was in …” (location)
- Estuve en España. = I was in Spain. (completed visit)
- Estaba en la clase de español. = I was in Spanish class. (ongoing/setting)

If you give the full sentence you want translated or the context (completed action vs ongoing/description), I’ll provide the best Spanish version.
