0/ Introduction

Spanish is now the second most spoken language in the world and is the official
language in 22 countries including most of Central and South America. With
the rise of new economies in the region, Spanish has emerged as a key
language for business and is a sought-after skill by many employers in the UK
and beyond.

In addition, Spanish remains a very popular foreign language with cultural and
linguistic aficionados alike, as well as with the many visitors travelling to the
Spanish-speaking world every year.

Whatever your motivation, the good news is, Spanish is one of the easiest
foreign languages to learn and achieve progress in. Moreover, the way foreign
languages are taught has evolved enormously in recent years, making the
learning process more enjoyable and rewarding than ever before.

We are experienced in supporting a wide range of learners, so whatever your

level or language objectives, we will take your requirements on board. We will
team you up with a suitably qualified tutor and will design the right course for you:

We are pleased to offer a quality and flexible service at competitive rates.

We operate two transparent price bands: one for individual (1:1) lessons and one
for group lessons. Group lessons are charged by the hour and not by the number
of participants, meaning the cost can be spread across a number of learners,
making this a highly affordable option. However, we recommend a maximum
group size of 10 in order as this will help ensure a positive learning experience.

7/ Salamanca Trips

The Sanchez Method has launched an innovative intensive Spanish

course in Salamanca. Delegates from companies in the UK now have
the opportunity to learn Spanish in Salamanca on a one or two week
intensive Spanish course.
Whilst improving Spanish communication skills, delegates also learn
about Spanish culture and way of life invaluable if you are doing
business in Spain! Delegates study Spanish on a 1-1 basis during the
mornings, and explore sunny Salamanca in the afternoons, practising
their new Spanish skills in real situations eating tapas or walking
through the Plaza Mayor and Plaza Anaya.

8/ DELE

Today Spanish is the worlds fourth most commonly spoken language,

after Chinese, English and Hindi. Spanish is the official language of
around twenty countries, spoken in more than 40, and the mother
tongue of over 400 million people. Spanish is at the moment the
second language of international communication, and is being
increasingly used in economic, political and cultural relations.

The number of those studying Spanish throughout the world is growing

every year, and getting ready for the Diplomas of Spanish as a Foreign
Language (DELE), is definitely one of the best ways to start working
with Spanish and Latin American companies and institutions.

The Diplomas of Spanish as a Foreign Language (DELE) are official

qualifications, which prove your level of proficiency in the Spanish
language and which are awarded by the Spanish Ministry of Education
and Science.

The DELE Diplomas are internationally recognized, and enjoy great

prestige not only among public and private educational institutions and
authorities, but also in the business world and chambers of commerce.
They are ideal for furthering your career and access to education, both
in Spain and in other Latin American countries.

The DELE examinations have been designed following the guidelines of

the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR)
of the Council of Europe, which ensures a practical way of establishing
a standard, international and objective measurement of the level that
should be reached at each teaching stage, and in evaluating results.

There are six levels (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2), and therefore the
courses are organized in six levels, depending on the degree of
difficulty and according to the students ability to communicate in the
language on completion of each level.

The examinations include Reading Comprehension, Written Expression,

Oral Comprehension, Grammar and Vocabulary and Verbal Expression.

In Level A1, students will be able to express themselves simply in basic

and predictable everyday life situations.

In Level A2, students will be able to express themselves adequately in

basic social conventions and communicate satisfactorily in everyday
life situations.

In Level B1, students will be able to express themselves reasonably

accurately and with a degree of flexibility in familiar but more complex
everyday life situations.

In Level B2, students will be able to communicate fluently and with

sufficient accuracy, using an appropriate register of formality, to
express their ideas well, using language suitable for the situation.

In Level C1, students will be able to express themselves fluently and

spontaneously, using the register necessary for the context of the
conversation and the intentions of the speaker.
 And finally in Level C2, students will be able to express themselves in
all types of situations, including discussion on abstract and complex
specialised themes.

Every year, more than 45,000 candidates sit the examinations for this
Diploma. Examinations are held three times a year in May, August
and November, in 500 examination centres based in over 100
countries worldwide.

The University of Salamanca collaborates in designing exam papers

and in grading the tests with Instituto Cervantes, a public institution
from the Spanish Government that was founded in 1991 to promote
the development of Spanish and Latin American language and culture
throughout the world.

At the Diplomas website (http://diplomas.cervantes.es/en) you can find

all the information you need about DELE.
9/ Test your Spanish

We have designed a number of short quizzes that will help you test
your reading, grammar and comprehension. We suggest you start at
the level that you think best reflects your current ability and see how
youve done!

For an assessment of skills such as Speaking, Listening and Writing,

contact us for a free consultation with one of our language experts.

For further details on the proficiency levels listed, please refer to the
European CERF (Common European Framework of Reference for
Languages).

a/Check if you can understand and use basic phrases and everyday
expressions, such as introducing yourself and asking simple questions.

b/If you are a basic user of Spanish then you have reached elementary
level. Take this test to check if you can understand common sentences
and expressions relating to everyday life and routine activities.

c/At intermediate level , you should be able to describe familiar

situations and experiences, and understand the main points when
having a conversation in Spanish.

d/At upper intermediate level , you should be able to understand

complex ideas and use specialised vocabulary.

Some exercises in this test require you to type free text. Enter all text
in lower case and do not use any punctuation. Where appropriate, use
the Spanish accented letters (, , , , , , ).
