דִבַּרְתָּ אֵת הַלָשׁוֹן מְאֹד טוֹב! הַסְפָרַדִּית הִיא לְשׁוֹן הַמִשְׁפַּחְתּי וְהָאָרְצִי, אֲבָל הַחַלְתִּי לְדַבֵּרָהּ כְּנַעַר בְּבֵּית הַסֵפֶר.
You speak the language very well! Spanish is the language of my family and my country, but I only truly began learning it as a lad in school.

EDIT: A minor correction: in Spanish one speaks a language rather than speaks in a language—consequently, hablar el idioma rather than hablar en el idioma. Hope this helps! [:D]
