This course includes the Intensive 20 group course plus 5 afternoon private lessons per week aimed towards preparing the student for the desired SIELE exam. SIELE exam dates need to checked just before booking as they are given out only a few weeks in advance.
SIELE is the “Servicio Internacional de Evaluación de la Lengua Española” (International Assessment Service for the Spanish Language). It digitally certifies students' Spanish language proficiency.
SIELE is a multi-level exam. This means that every task in each test presents a different degree of difficulty. This determines the candidate’s proficiency level from level A1 to level C1 according to the CEFR.

The SIELE examination is modular, so you can decide if you want to take the complete exam (SIELE Global) or just some of the tests (S1 – S4).
These are the 5 different options:
- SIELE Global,
- S1: Reading & Listening comprehension,
- S2: Reading comprehension & Written expression and interaction,
- S3: Listening comprehension & Oral expression and interaction,
- S4: Spoken expression and interaction.
The SIELE Global exam consists of 4 tests that correspond to the four language communication skills. It is the most complete modality for certifying your level of Spanish proficiency.
The independent SIELE modalities (S1 – S4) are created from four possible combinations of the Global exam. They only certify your Spanish language level of the communication part of your choice.

Puerto la Cruz seems like a good place to do this (although it looks like we will have to wear wet suits) and I am available these dates to do so. Isn't it a good idea to book the surf lessons through you at this time?“This Intensive 20 + Surf classes includes the Intensive 20 group course and 5 surf lessons in the afternoons, so for 2 weeks you will have 10 surf lessons in total. The surf lessons take place from 16:00 to 18:00 at Playa Martiánez, located at only 15 minutes from the school.
