Spanish courses online in 6 levels A1 to C2
Spanish courses online for self-study with continuous teacher guidance.
At CELA Spanish School we offer Online Spanish courses for adult students who wish to learn at their own pace, in their own time, independently, but who nevertheless wish to be accompanied by an expert teacher.
We offer courses at 6 levels from beginner to advanced: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2.
The course material is comprehensive and consists of didactic material divided into 12 lessons per level with an average of 12 to 15 exercises and activities in each lesson.
It consists of clear and simple grammar explanations on video with application exercises that have solutions for self-checking. When students correct their own exercises, they focus their attention better. Then there are grammar exercises that are sent to the teacher by e-mail for correction and explanation. We have many reading and vocabulary exercises. Pronunciation exercises with solutions and pronunciation exercises to send to the teacher by voice message for feedback. Spanish videos from different sources with different topics and different accents with exercises to train listening comprehension. Writing exercises that are corrected by the teacher by e-mail, and much more.
Although our students learn according to the time they have available, they are never alone, they are always assisted by the teacher.
The course costs US$ 260 per level and includes the didactic material and the teacher’s feedback by e-mail and voice message.
For students who do not have many possibilities to speak Spanish on a daily basis and for those who want more oral practice we offer online Spanish classes by video conference as a complement. The videoconference class costs US$ 25 (60 minutes class).

We will now answer some frequently asked questions from people interested in the course:
Frequently asked questions:
Who is the course teacher?
The teacher of the course is Dr. Sabine Loffler (1965), author of the material and director of CELA Spanish School. Sabine holds a degree in Literature from the UCV in Venezuela, a PhD in Hispanic Philology from the UNED, a Master’s degree in Distance Education from the UNED, a Specialist in Adult Education from the UNED, she is Spanish teacher since 1992 and Spanish teacher trainer. Sabine is perfectly bilingual German-Spanish because she is the daughter of Germans raised in Venezuela, she also speaks English and Italian. Also collaborates with her occasionally native teachers trained in the CELA teacher training course.
How long does the course last?
The student determines the length of the course and the pace at which he/she wants to work. However, to complete a level, about 240 hours of work are required. At a rate of 20 hours per week, the course can be completed in 3 months. However, we recommend that students work at a leisurely pace in order to have sufficient opportunity to assimilate the knowledge. Each level of the course has 12 lessons and each lesson has 12 to 15 activities.
What do I need for the course?
The didactic material is very detailed. You will need internet access. A computer or tablet for the writing exercises. A cell phone to send voice messages. Two notebooks: one for vocabulary and grammar and a correction notebook in which you will write down your teacher’s corrections.
What is the course schedule?
Each student determines his or her own schedule. We recommend having one or more fixed days and times to study Spanish in order to create a habit. If you include the study of Spanish in your daily habits you will also work when your motivation has ups and downs.
How long will it take me to speak Spanish if I start from 0?
The A1 course can be finished in 3 months and the A2 course as well. Our students start speaking Spanish spontaneously from lesson 4 of level A2. This is because at this stage they have a good basic vocabulary and know the structure of the language. They master the present, past and future tenses.
How many hours a week should I study to progress at a good pace?
We recommend studying a minimum of 6 hours per week.
In which languages is the course material available?
The A1 and A2 courses have instructions in German and English. The B1 course is available with explanations in English, but from B2 onwards the course is in Spanish only. Nevertheless, all explanatory videos are offered in Spanish, English and German.
What variety of Spanish is learned in the course?
We consider in the course the standard Spanish of Spain and the standard Spanish of Latin America. The course material includes speech samples from different Spanish speakers. Sabine speaks standard Latin American Spanish. She is from Venezuela.
Is there a certificate?
Yes, after the students have completed all the activities of a course and have received feedback from the teacher, we do an oral evaluation by videoconference and deliver the level certificate.
Which course should I choose?
For students who already have some knowledge of Spanish we always do a level test. You will receive the test by mail, you will have to complete it without using the translator and send it to us so that the teacher can correct it. You will receive a corrected and commented test with the recommendation of the ideal CELA course for you.
Is there a trial lesson?
Yes, when you receive the corrected test, you will receive as a test lesson the first lesson of the course recommended by us.
