I have been at Españolé International House of Valencia to prepare my Spanish exam DELE B2. I am enthusiast about this School. Everything was top grade: Valencia itself, the location of the school, the teachers and the organisation. I made the perfect choice.

The Dele preparation course is very practical, it is a simulation of the real exam process, so that I don't feel overwhelmed when I actually take the exam.  The teacher who taught us is also a Dele examiner, the teacher is very professional and responsible, he also corrects our homework every day after class.  The learning environment of the school is very beautiful, it is in the center of the most prosperous city of Valencia, an old and beautiful palace, where I had an unforgettable happy time. I highly recommend this school.
