Spanish courses in Sevilla

|
 Spanish courses in Seville are run all-year-round at different levels, from complete beginner to proficiency.
Our courses include General Spanish, Spanish for professional purposes, and DELE exam preparation courses. All of them include two cultural activities per week in the afternoons (Tuesday and Thursday).
The maximum group size is 10 students, allowing teachers to guarantee plenty of individual attention. This will permit you to maximise progress in the time available
All Spanish courses can be taken at all levels, with the exception of the DELE course, which requires at least an intermediate level of Spanish language.
On the first day of class, students are required to take a level test that will enable us to assess their level and assign them to the most appropriate class. Students with no previous knowledge of the language will be automatically placed in the beginners group.
Upon completion of your course, we will present you with an attendance certificate or diploma indicating the course type and duration as well as the level of Spanish acquired.
