The letters D-E-L-E stand for Diploma de Español como Lengua Extranjera, and it is the most important and globally recognised Spanish language certificate. It is awarded by the Instituto Cervantes and is the only one recognised by the Spanish Ministry of Education and the Spanish Ministry of Culture.
DELE diplomas are offered at six levels (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2), according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
- DELE diplomas do not expire on a specific date.
- This diploma is essential for residence permit applications where it is necessary to prove that you have an A2 level or higher in order to be granted a residence permit. It is also necessary when applying for some study visas.

The DELE exam is a demanding exam for which you need to be very well prepared. For this reason, you should choose a date that allows you enough time to pass the exam.
At Hablamos, we will advise you free of charge to tell you if you have the right level to achieve this qualification or not. We have teachers with a lot of experience in the preparation of this exam and we will be happy to help you.
The price of the DELE exam depends on the country where the exam is being held and the level you have and want to certify. In Spain these prices range from 112 euros to 201/234 euros for the higher levels. We will help you with all the paperwork for this exam.
Our courses are focused on DELE exam preparation during the weeks before the official exam dates in February, April, May, July, September, October and November.
At Hablamos we know that this DELE exam requires a lot of dedication and effort, and for this reason, our courses are designed so that the student is well prepared and passes the exam. That is our goal. How do we do it? By teaching you exam techniques so that you acquire fluency and your scores get better and better. At the same time, we review past DELE exams and practice all the essential parts of the exam so that you master them. Are our DELE courses boring? Of course not! The Hablamos method is one hundred percent communicative, and in all our classes you will continue practising your Spanish and you will not stop learning grammar, writing, and all the skills required for the exam, but we will do it in a fun and effective way in order to achieve the main objective of these courses: To pass the DELE exam!
