Carmen is a wonderful person and a great teacher. She divides the class into segments, each one has a specific topic. Carmen explains everything clearly and in details. I enjoy learning, and every time I get a lot of new knowledge. My level of Spanish has improved dramatically in three months of studying.

Jose made my first Spanish class interesting and fun. The whole class we talked and at the same time, he taught me expressions and idioms. I learned new words and phrases using comparisons if I couldn't understand. I liked that Jose is patient and explains everything in an accessible way. I look forward to the next lesson!

DELE Exam: What Is It?
The abbreviation DELE stands for Diploma de Español como Lengua Extranjera ("Diploma in Spanish as a Foreign Language"). It is an internationally recognized Spanish language proficiency exam. The DELE certificate is issued by the Cervantes Institute on behalf of the Ministry of Education of Spain.
DELE has no expiration date, but you can retake the exam to reassess your knowledge or obtain a higher-level certificate. The exam certifies one of six Spanish proficiency levels: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. For students aged 11–17, there are special exam sessions with levels A1, A2, and B1. From age 16, candidates can take the regular exam sessions.

Questions and answers
Why is it important to learn Spanish?
There are currently approximately 580 million Spanish speakers worldwide; that's 7.6% of the world's population. In fact, Spanish is the second most widely spoken language in the world and the third most widely used language on the Internet after English and Chinese.
How long does it take to learn Spanish?
It takes the average person between 575 and 600 hours to get from zero to fluent Spanish. Fluency is difficult to determine because everyone progresses at different rates and there are many contributing factors.
Why are the exclamation points and question marks inverted in Spanish?
The inverted question mark was adopted around 1754, when the Royal Academy recommended the use of this symbol to indicate the beginning of a question in written Spanish, such as "¿Cuántos años tienes?" The institution also ordered the same system of inverted symbols for exclamatory expressions using the symbols "¡" and "!"
Does Spanish have dialects?
Spanish spoken in Spain is different from Spanish in Argentina. Spanish is quite varied when it comes to spoken form, varying to different degrees from one country to another, especially in pronunciation and vocabulary. Variations exist not only between European Spanish and Spanish in the Americas, but also in many different dialects of Spain and Latin America.
What is DELE?
DELE is an official document certifying the degree of competence and knowledge of Spanish, issued by the Instituto Cervantes on behalf of the Spanish Ministry of Education. It corresponds to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) and ranges from A1 (Beginner) to C2 (Proficiency).
