Our Spanish language school pick for Argentina
Buenos Aires
As stated in the introduction, the goal of this section is to help students who are looking for a Spanish language school in another country. Often, one has to make this choice in advance, from home, without being able to visit the school. We do this part for you, and only recommend schools that we have actually visited.
After visiting many schools in Buenos Aires, we highly recomend the following school.
The school is located in a great part of the city - (a few minutes walking distance to Recoleta) and is close to subway lines and bus lines which will take you to any other part of the city for less than .30 cents. We sat in on a few classes and found the teachers to be knowledgeable, caring, and pleasant.

-- Welcome to a Spanish Immersion experience in Buenos Aires --
At our school all students experience real language challenges. We help them to communicate more effectively and to speak their minds - to say what they really mean to say.
Being immersed in Spanish, students face communicative situations, in class, all the time: going to the supermarket, having lunch at a restaurant, preparing a dinner party, writing a short story, travelling by bus or presenting a product in a company meeting.
Our main goal is to equip our students with the necessary tools to deal with these situations: the activities and workshops that we offer allow students apply their knowledge outside the classroom, in real-life scenarios.
--- When we say Spanish Cultural Immersion, we mean it ---
We offer our students many ways of being immerse in our culture because we are sure that´s the best way of learning Spanish. That´s why, the activities we offer include the following:
- Open - Air Courses: cooking lessons, thematical rides around the city, Walking tours.
- Inter-cultural Spanish Workshops: Tango lessons, Juggling, Workout, Football.
- Cineclub: every Monday, movies with audio and subtitles in Spanish.
- Picadas: every Tuesday, a special meal to share and bond with other students and "porteños ".
- Spanish Immersion Programmes : when you are already studying Spanish you may feel that you need a 24 hours immersion on the language to make great progress on your learning process. You are right. Or maybe you want to start studying Spanish and you think that a shocking experience of total immersion would be a great way of starting. Right again. All levels of Spanish students can share the wonderful experience of being on a week trip with different people, in an unknown place and communicating in a whole new language.
We have Spanish Immersion Programmes Getaways three times a year: to the beach, to the spa and to the countryside.
--- passionate teachers and great learning environment ---
Our team is made up of teachers who have a passion. We encourage each teacher to show and share what they have inside. The teachers' various interests, hobbies, studies, ways of living and passions are brought into the school and into every classroom. This is why you, as a student, get to know most of them.
Each class has not only one, but two teachers, in order to provide students a more authentic approach to language learning, exposing them to different kinds of accents and teaching styles.
Supported by a carefully developed syllabus and constant training in the new methods for Second and Foreign Language Acquisition, our teachers further take into account the technical challenges of the acquisition of the Spanish language. In addition, the activities that we offer encourage students to delve even deeper, exploring the underlying cultural identity of the people who speak the language. We offer the best in linguistic and cultural experiences in a comfortable environment where learning is possible and mistakes are allowed. How else would we learn?
Our team of teachers is coordinated by a group of experienced educators who closely follow the progress of each class. Because each class has no more than eight students, we are able to consistently take into account the needs and interests of each and every student and tailor an individual's classes accordingly.
