DELE stands for Diploma de Español como Lengua Extranjera, or "Spanish as a Foreign Language Diploma". It is the only certificate for non-native Spanish speakers that is officially recognized by the Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport. This diploma is of great international value for those who are going to study at a Spanish University and who want to work, or are going to work in a Spanish speaking environment. We advise everyone taking a long term Spanish course to take the DELE examination.
You can follow the DELE preparation courses for the Certificado Inicial (CIE), Diploma Intermedio (DIE) and the most advanced Diploma Superior (DSE) at all the don Quijote schools. Up to today, a very high percentage of our students have succeeded. This does not guarantee that you will successfully pass the official DELE exam, as this always depends upon various circumstances. However, we do guarantee you the high quality of these courses.
The place and time of the course are fully harmonized with the examination dates established by the Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport. Because of practical advantages most students take the examination in Spain, although it is also possible to take the examination outside Spain. The examination fees are set each year by the Spanish Ministry, the Instituto Cervantes and each examination center.
Exam and registration fees are not included. Prices range per level from € 85 to € 235.

Marbella, the undisputed highlight of Costa del Sol, is an exclusive Mediterranean resort town with some of the best beaches in Europe. Its beautiful parks and gardens, top-notch golf courses and picturesque old quarter, the Casco Antiguo, make Marbella a relaxing yet stimulating place to learn Spanish.
Classes and teachers were great! I have really improved my Spanish!
The housing was not perfect, but fine (2 bathrooms for 15 people is not enough).
I really enjoyed my time with Don Quijote. The Enforex School was a really good choice and every single morning I looked forward to school. The atmosphere at school was really relaxed and every single teacher I had was really helpful and nice. They all had different teaching techniques which was also really nice because it never got boring there. Unfortunately, the classes were sometimes really big due to the summer season and therefore the language levels of the students in one class were sometimes really different.
