The DELEs are divided into three levels depending on the Spanish language competence:

Beginner level
Students at this level have sufficient knowledge of the Spanish language to allow control in basic situations, which require an elementary use of the language. This certified DELE level is an equivalent of the level B1 of the European Framework of Reference.

Intermediate level
Students at this level have the necessary knowledge of the Spanish language to allow communication in everyday situations which do not require specialized terms (e.g. technical terms). This certified DELE level is an equivalent of the level B2 of the European Framework of Reference.

Superior level
Students at this level have an advanced knowledge of the Spanish language allowing communication in all situations requiring superior use of the language and cultural background of the language. This certified DELE level is an equivalent of the level C1-C2 of the European Framework of Reference.

The DELE exams are offered twice a year, in May and November, and can be taken in Lima. ACUPARI staff can help you arrange and register for your DELE exam.

One-on-one preparation
DELE preparation classes are given on a one to one basis only to ensure your success once you are ready to take the DELE exam. One-on-one preparation is tailored to your individual requirements in every regard and your goal as far as the DELE level in which you are preparing. You yourself can determine content and rhythm of learning, be it more conversation or more grammar, vocabulary related to a specific field of interest or everyday speech, our teachers are quick to realize how they can best serve your needs. Another advantage of the one-on-one class is that you also can decide your hours.

Placement Test
Especially important to ensure that students are prepared appropriately and at their level of Spanish proficiency, students interested in preparing for the DELE are required to take a placement test. This is given on the first day of classes, prior to the beginning of the class.

Class hours: Standard or Intensive?
You can choose either our 4 hour per day Standard program or our 6 hour per day Intensive program. The advantage of our programs is that each period is taught by a different teacher offering you diversity of style in the classroom. If you opt for the Standard program, you will enjoy 2 different teachers during the week. If you are looking for more intense study, opt for the Intensive program, with up to 3 teachers during the week.

The teachers
To provide the highest quality in the classroom, our teaching team is made up of eight permanently employed Spanish teachers, who are highly qualified and undergo continuous training. In cooperation with the Argentinean Association of Spanish Teachers ACUPARI has financed an additional qualification training that is a prerequisite for teaching at ACUPARI. Even though the predominant language in the classroom is Spanish, some of the feedback we have received underlines that our teachers’ knowledge of English has been especially helpful.
