DELE · SIELE · Instituto Cervantes
At delesiele we prepare you for the DELE and SIELE with a decisive edge: it's marked by someone who assesses it from the inside. Our lessons are taught by an official examiner accredited by the Instituto Cervantes.
What we offer
These aren't conversation classes: they're classes to pass the exam.
At delesiele we prepare the DELE and SIELE with a method aimed at one goal: passing first time. The difference is who is behind the marking.
We work with you on every skill until the exam stops being scary.

Very professional preparation. Always interesting topics and ideas, tailored to my level on an individual basis.
