Online Spanish course A2 for self-study at intermediate level with continuous teacher assistance.
Our Online Spanish course A2 is designed for independent learners who wish to learn Spanish at their own pace and decide their own schedule, but who also want a structured course with guidance from an expert teacher.
The course is aimed at adult learners who have a basic knowledge of Spanish and have completed level A1. For students who wish to start at our school and who already have some knowledge of Spanish, we do a level test to recommend the most appropriate course at CELA according to their knowledge.
The course material consists of 12 lessons per level, with a wide variety of exercises and activities. Each lesson has between 12 and 15 activities. A large part of the exercises has feedback from the teacher by e-mail and voice message. Grammar explanations are available in videos and have exercises for self-monitoring and exercises that are sent to the teacher for correction. There are many videos from different sources for listening comprehension exercises with application exercises. We also include texts adapted to A2 level for reading comprehension and vocabulary learning. We put a lot of emphasis on Spanish pronunciation. The course offers a wide variety of pronunciation exercises and audio samples. Pronunciation is corrected by voice messages. Written production is also very relevant in this distance learning course. Texts are reviewed and corrected by the teacher by e-mail.
The cost of the course is US$ 260 for the complete level. It includes the didactic material (12 lessons), the teacher’s assistance by e-mail and voice message and the certificate.
At the bottom of this page there is a video in which we give details of the course.
For students who wish to have more oral interaction, we offer additional live classes by videoconference. Classes last one hour of 60 minutes and cost US$ 25 each.

Frequently asked questions about our Online Spanish Course A2:
We will answer some of the questions we are most frequently asked regarding the course.
When does the course start and what is the schedule?
The course has no start date or end date. Each student decides his or her pace of progress and the duration of the course. You can start the course today if you wish. We recommend having some fixed days and times to learn Spanish. This way a habit is created. It is not necessary to dedicate many hours to the study of Spanish. It is more effective to do a little at a time, but be consistent. The A2 course can be completed in 3 months if you invest 20 hours a week of time. In total the course is designed for about 240 hours of study. There are students who have finished it in this time, but there are also others who have taken 1 or 2 years. Everyone has different rhythms and needs.
What language is the course taught in?
The explanations of the A2 course are in Spanish with translation into English and German. The explanatory videos are available in 3 languages: Spanish, German and English. The teacher speaks English, German and Italian, in addition to her native Spanish.
What do I need for the course?
The course material has everything you will need to learn the language in an orderly and progressive way. You will need a computer or tablet, as we do a lot of writing in the course. An internet connection to watch the videos and send the exercises. A cell phone to send the audios. Two notebooks: one for grammar and vocabulary notes and one to work with the teacher’s corrections. We recommend writing the corrections by hand in a notebook. Writing by hand helps us a lot when learning a language, just like reading aloud.
Who is the course instructor?
The teacher and author of the course material is Dr. Sabine Loffler, director of CELA, PhD in Hispanic Philology from UNED, specialist in Adult Education and Spanish teacher since 1992. Spanish is her mother tongue because she grew up and lives in Venezuela. She speaks English, German and Italian.

How do I know if the A2 course is for me?
With all those interested in our courses who have some knowledge of Spanish we do a level test. You will receive the test by e-mail. We will review it and send you the corrections with the recommendation of the appropriate course for you at CELA. We will also send you a free trial lesson of the course so that you can decide at your leisure if you like the course.
Is there a trial lesson?
Of course there is. For those interested in the A2 online Spanish course we send the first lesson of the course as a trial lesson after you have taken the placement test.
What is the price of the course?
The A2 online Spanish course costs US$ 260. It includes the course material for 12 lessons, the teacher’s feedback by e-mail and voice message and the certificate.
What variety of Spanish is taught in the course?
The course considers both standard varieties of Spanish, Spanish from Spain and Latin America. The teacher is from Venezuela. The course material has speech samples of speakers from different countries, because we want our students to get used to different accents.
Does the course have a certificate?
Yes, once the students have finished the 12 lessons and have received feedback from the teacher, there is a short conversation via videoconference to check the knowledge acquired during the course and we deliver the course certificate.
What do students say about CELA?
My wish was to learn the basics of Spanish grammar in a good and well-founded way, with flexible time management. The CELA online course has more than achieved this. The course material, the assignments, the corrections and the correspondence with the course instructor were extremely good! The materials and exercises are didactically well prepared so that you simply must follow the instructions in the course materials to achieve the desired learning success. The flexible time management makes learning uncomplicated and the tasks, whether written or oral (voice recordings via whatsApp, Signal…) were always corrected within the following 24 hours.
All in all, I can highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn Spanish!
