Very impressive for less than a year's worth of development experience. Appreciate the simple, clean design too. Congratulations on the launch!
How did you load the verbs + conjugations into the system?

Thanks a lot man! Most of the design credit should go to React Toolbox: http://react-toolbox.com
The verb data is from: https://github.com/ghidinelli/fred-jehle-spanish-verbs. I wrote a node script to turn it into a more efficient format.
If you're interested I wrote a little post about making it here: https://andycloke.github.io/Building-Verb-Master/

I've been working on learning spanish for a while and this looks super helpful - thanks for creating and sharing it! It would also be sweet if you could add an example of the verb used in a sentence after you've submitted your answer/guess, and then maybe a button to see that example sentence translated back to english. That would be a lot, but just a thought.

I've been using Duolingo to learn German for 3 weeks now, and so far I'm very impressed. They have a long list of languages.

Imperative (affirmative) for traer seems to have an error.
Usted traiga, vosotras traed. You have them switched.

Appears to be an error in the CSV file of the verb database I used. Looking into using the XLS file instead.

License? This is an excellent UI.

No license.
I hope to add audio, more tenses and more feedback (on your progress through each round) soon.
I wrote a blog post on the development here for anyone interested: https://andycloke.github.io/Building-Verb-Master/
This was my CS50 final project. Can't recommend the course highly enough.
