The DELE, Spanish acronym for Diploma of Spanish as a Foreign Language, is the sole standardized accreditation system for Spanish as a foreign language students accepted in over 100 different countries around the world. This certification is granted by The Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport through the Instituto Cervantes. A DELE diploma provides the beholder with an accredited level of competence and mastery of Spanish.
We are perhaps the only language center in Mexico with official accreditation for DELE testing from, The Ministry for Education of Spain and The Teaching of Spanish as a Foreign Language from The Secretary of Education of Mexico.
We offer two types of courses that will prepare you for the DELE exam:
1. Our group preparation course is a 4-week program which begins one month from the examination date with a minimum of 4 participants. However, if you can put together a group of minimum four people, all taking the same level of exam, we can set up a group preparation course for you to begin on any Monday.
2. If you are on a tight schedule and can only attend certain hours per day or if there are only certain aspects of the exam you would like to prepare for, then a private preparation program is best for you. This will allow you to take from as little as 1 hour up to as many hours per day as you wish as well as prepare for the entire exam or only focus on certain sections you may be concerned with. A private program may begin any day of the week.
IMAC offered a wonderful program. The teachers were excellent and the program was well organized. In addition to the classes, IMAC offered optional and free Wednesday morning excursions. I attended two walking excursions during my two weeks to visit a museum with Jose Clemente Orozco murals and to see a local park. The school offered English classes to the locals and Spanish classes to visitors, and locals and visitors were paired to practice our new languages and learn about each other's cultures. I really enjoyed these excursions and the young Guadalajarans I met on these outings. They also offered an optional and free conversation class every day for an hour that was well worth the time spent. The school's location is also ideal since it is less than a ten minute walk from the historic center and its famous Cathedral.

My experience with IMAC was great. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here. I learnt a lot in a short space of time and drastically progressed my Spanish language abilities.
I had an excellent teacher - Lia - who ensured that the lessons were fun and engaging. Lesson plans and learning styles were adapted to suit what I wanted and needed in order to progress. The tailored learning experience meant that I was more engaged and progressed faster.
The school facilities are great and all staff were incredibly helpful during my time there. Additionally, the school is located in a great place in the city, easily connected and close to the city centre.
Had private lessons, instructor was very welcoming and demonstrated dedication to helping me achieve my learning goals. Safe location in city center within walking distance to many attractions. A lot of hotels near by

I enjoyed the classes they were they were thorough and my favorite part was the mid week trips we got to take on Wednesdays. My teacher was very professional and good and explaining vocabulary and grammar. The school is centrally located in Guadalajara surrounded by museums plazas and restaurants, there is always something near to do. The best part of the trip for me was the family I stayed with they made me feel very welcome in their home and I can't praise them highly enough.
IMAC is a very professional organization with qualified teachers. It's a large school with many classrooms. It's very well located in the center of Gualadajara. I only took private lessons. 2.5 hours a day for four days. We could not arrive on Monday, when group classes start. My teacher was good, but 2.5 hours one-on-one was mentally draining for me. I would recommend group classes if possible because the pressure to speak only Spanish for so long is less and there is more time to absorb the lessons. We did not participate in activities. We stayed nearby at the excellent Portobello hotel, which is not expensive by US or European standards.
"Everything went really well, great people and great classes."

Very good teachers that became very good friends. Nice colleagues and really good opportunities for practicing Spanish and talking with Mexicans. I made many friends and had a really good experience overall.
