When to you use "bien" vs "bueno"?
I'm confused on when you use bien and when you use bueno to describe things.
Could someone please provide some examples on when you use each?
What are the differences between the words?
Thank you!

"Bien" is an adverb. "Bueno/a" is an adjective. The main difference between an adverb and an adjective in Spanish is that adjectives are used to describe nouns and adverbs are used to describe verbs or actions. For example:
-Alex trabaja bien (We're not describing Alex but the way he works, we're describing an action or verb ("trabajar"), so we need an adverb, "bien")
-Alex es bueno (We're describing Alex, a noun, so we use "bueno", the adjective)
Is it clearer now? :)

Bien is an adverb and bueno is an adjetive.

I think the simplest way to put it would be
bien = well (As Cristian said, "I am well, thanks." or "I think the test went well.")
bueno = good ("The rice is good.")
