Christine,

I’m taking spanish on duolingo as well. What I did was install the spanish 
keyboard on the iPhone. Now whenever spanish is required for entry, the phone 
shows the spanish keyboard rather than the english one. If you are entering on 
the onscreen keyboard, I believe you still have to use the hold and slide 
method that others have described. However, if you are using a bluetooth 
keyboard. There are dedicated keys for entering accents and the n with tilda. 

The n tilde is the key to the right of the semicolon and the acute accent is 
the next key to the right of that one.
