Spanish placement test result

You have a beginner foundation in Spanish.

You can recognise and use very common words and simple phrases about yourself, your family and your immediate surroundings — enough for isolated, rehearsed exchanges.

A1 · Beginner

What you can do at this level

  • Introduce yourself and ask simple personal questions (name, nationality, address).
  • Understand and use everyday greetings, numbers, dates and prices.
  • Ask for and give simple directions word by word.
  • Write short, simple notes such as a hotel registration or a shopping list.

Hours to reach A2

Using Cambridge English's guided-learning-hours guideline (published for English and used here as a proxy — Spanish is a Category I language for English speakers per the US Foreign Service Institute), moving from A1 to A2 takes roughly ≈ 80–110 hours of guided learning.
