LEVELS
LEARN SPANISH IS EASY
All Our Schools follow the criteria laid down by the Council of Europe on the teaching of languages.
One of the aims of the "Common European Framework of Reference: Learning, Teaching, Assessment", Council of Europe reference document for the European Language Portfolio, is to help partners to describe the levels of proficiency required by existing standards, tests and examinations in order to facilitate comparisons between different systems of qualifications.
For this purpose the Council of Europe has developed a European Framework with common reference levels.
