How can you type accents on an HP stream 14 cb-1xx laptop?

I cannot for the life of my get this laptop to type an accent or a tilde. I need to do spanish homework on it. I've not been able to get short cuts to work, I can't get the switching keyboard languages to work, the type apostrophe then the vowel doesn't work. How can I make this thing type accents marks??? I am getting so ungodly frustrated. It also took me forever to figure out that it's a two finger touche to get a right click, why is this machine so unintuitive? 

please help. i want this semester to go more smoothly than the last with constantly having to copy and past accented letters.

I think Spanish forums should be able to tell you what do you need. That must be very simple. I'm using a simple program to type my native characters nearly everyday, for example

à, ă, ã, ạ, ả ...uý, tỉnh thành ....
