Latin Immersion Chile is the official DELE  exam center of Chile. DELE Information Pack (PDF)

Overview

The DELE (Diploma de Español como Lengua Extranjera), issued by Spain's Ministry of Education and administered by the Instituto Cervantes, is an offical accreditation of Spanish language abilities.  It is recognized by official institutions of Spanish-speaking countries as well as countries where Spanish is not the official language.  The exam verifies abilities in reading, writing, speaking, and understanding Spanish with three levels of certification:

 

Certificado Inicial  beginner Diploma Basico  intermediate Diploma Superior  superior

Apart from gaining Spanish language certification, the exam preparation course is an excellent way to arrive at a balanced level of proficiency.

In order to prepare for the exam, we have courses devoted entirely to DELE exam preparation. The sessions are one-to-one and enable you to focus on your areas needing rapid improvement. 

The course is taken as a private course, either full-time or as the private component of "group + private", 20 hours group plus 10 hours private.  Fees are the same as for standard courses.

All exam levels consist of the following:

reading, writing, listening, speaking, grammar, and vocabulary. 

The preparation courses cover all components with particular emphasis on your areas of more limited capabilities.
