SIELE Programmes
- On a monthly basis: You can choose how many hours of tuition you want per week. The times and dates are arranged between the student and the teacher.
However, once the time slot has been fixed, the tuition must take place on the same day and time every week.
- Pay as you go: You can book however much tuition time you need, whenever you need it, without committing to a regular weekly time slot.
The times and dates are arranged between the student and the teacher; these can be flexible. Fees from £55 per hour.
- 4-hour exam preparation course: We work for 1 hour on each of the following: writing, listening, speaking, and reading comprehension. This programme is ideal for students who have already completed a SIELE course and need a final revision a few days prior to the exam.
The times and dates are arranged between the student and the teacher-examiner. These must take place within a maximum of two weeks and be completed at least 72 hours before the exam.
- Spanish Homestay Immersion Programme (SHIP): You can make the most of your immersive stay and prepare for and take the SIELE exam whilst you are staying with us in Spain.
What better way than to top off your educational holiday with an official Spanish qualification?
