    4 Course levels: 
    Beginner
    Elementary
    Intermediate
    Advanced

    Placement test and Certificate:
    It is very important for us to identify the right starting level for each student. This is why all students with some prior knowledge of Spanish are asked to take a placement test prior to their course. The test contains questions on various difficulty levels and takes 60 minutes maximum.

    Upon successful completion of the course the students receive a certificate of participation.

    Start dates:
    Spanish courses are offered all year round at both IIC Institutes.

    All private classes as well as group courses for higher language levels start every Monday. Group courses for total beginners begin every second Monday. If Monday is a public holiday, lessons will start on the following Tuesday.

    Course times: 
    Monday till Friday
    in the morning from 9am till 12:30pm
    (incl. a 30-min break)
    in the afternoon starting at 1:30pm

    Group courses usually take place in the morning; if there are many different course levels at a time it might be necessary for group courses to be in the afternoon. Private lessons are usually in the afternoons; other times on availability.

    Minimum age: 16 years
