DELE exam preparation online

Get an official Instituto Cervantes diploma. Carmen, an accredited DELE examiner, knows exactly what the examiners look for, and she prepares you for it.

What is the DELE?

The DELE (Diplomas de Español como Lengua Extranjera) are the official Spanish-language diplomas awarded by the Instituto Cervantes. They certify your level on the European scale, from A1 to C2, and the diploma does not expire. Many people take it for university admission, work, residency or simply as proof of progress.

Each exam tests four skills: reading comprehension, listening comprehension, written expression and interaction, and oral expression and interaction. Preparing well means knowing the tasks and practising each one under exam conditions.

What our preparation includes

  • Levels: B1 to C2.
  • A level check to find your real level and the right exam to aim for.
  • Exam practice with the format and the tasks you will meet on the day.
  • An accredited examiner: Carmen is a DELE examiner for B1/B2 and C1/C2.
