INTRODUCTION
DILE Cursos Internacionales de Espanol is a friendly Spanish language school in the centre of Salamanca, a beautiful university city in Spain. Salamanca is the ideal place to learn Spanish for the perfect Spanish spoken by its inhabitants, its rich cultural, historical and artistic heritage and its youthful, cosmopolitan atmosphere.
THE SCHOOL AND ITS TEACHERS
We offer our students high-quality teaching in a comfortable, modern building. The teachers are university graduates with expert teaching skills, and are friendly and approachable. Our groups are small (maximum 8, average 5 students per group). We have strict quality control and offer a permanent tutorial service to resolve students' problems and questions at any time. DILE has audiovisual and computer equipment, library and video library to enable students to consult the materials needed for their work.
LEVELS AND TEACHING METHOD
Our courses are divided into 8 levels, and students do a placement test on the first day of the course so that we can place them in the correct level. Our method gives prime importance to acquisition of speaking and listening skills, but all language skills are developed (reading, writing, metalinguistic skills).

DELE PREPARATION 
The "Diploma in Spanish as a Foreign Language" is the only official diploma awarded by the Department of Education and recognised by institutions the world over. There are 3 levels: Initial, Basic and Superior. Exams take place in May and November, and there is an additional exam in August only in Salamanca. DILE will arrange enrolment for our students.
Our DELE Preparation Course is extremely successful, with a 100% pass rate so far and includes exam practice techniques which cover all the different parts of the exam, including
grammar and vocabulary, writing, reading and listening comprehension and simulations for the oral exam.
ACCOMMODATION
DILE can arrange a variety of accommodation types for our students, including: host family; student residence; shared student flat; one/two-person apartment; hotel; hostel. We recommend the host family accommodation as it gives students the opportunity to practise their Spanish with the family outside the classroom and to experience the Spanish way of life.
ACTIVITIES
We know that having fun is essential in a language stay programmes, so classroom learning is complemented by out-of-class activities such as: cinema seasons; guided tour of Salamanca; parties; "tapas" evenings; weekend excursions, etc. We also provide information for our students about sports, concerts, exhibitions, dance and theatrical performances in the city.
