Buenos Aires, is a complex, energetic and seductive port city, which has been the gateway to Argentina for centuries. This magical city called the Paris of the Americas, offers wonderful nightlife including cafes, bars and countless tango clubs that are open until sunrise. Imagine walking home in the early morning through the Plaza de Mayo, where the citizens of this great city gathered together to hear speeches by Juan and Evita Peron.
Buenos Aires is a sprawling giant, with towering glass skyscrapers casting shadows A vibrant European heritage is obvious in a city whose inhabitants' names are markedly Italian and German. Their lifestyle and architecture are noticeably more European than any other city in South America. The city's physical structure is a mosaic as varied and diverse as its culture. The city has no dominating district; the city's neighborhoods are small and highly individualized, each with its own characteristic colors and forms.
Our school is centrally located with easy access to all forms of public transportation.
The school is in Las Catalinas, an area of modern, high-rise buildings in downtown Buenos Aires. We are just blocks from the Retiro train station and close to Puerto Madero, a fashionable renovated waterfront district where you can find some of the city's best restaurants.
A few blocks from the school is the famous Florida street, a pedestrian zone filled with shops and cafés, as well as the Galerias Pacificos, a beautiful shopping mall which also houses the Borges Cultural Center. A few blocks in the other direction, you will find yourself in the peaceful Plaza San Martín, where you can enjoy green grass and enormous trees in the midst of the city.
The school has a wonderful atmosphere due to the friendly, helpful staff that go out of their way to make sure that every aspect of your stay exceeds your expectations. The excellent facilities, great location and outstanding staff and teachers make this an ideal school for learning Spanish.
The school’s excellent location also makes it easy for students to practice their Spanish in nearby restaurants or cafes, shopping centers, art galleries, museums, and while sightseeing, all of which are within walking distance of the school. The nearest beach is only 4 hours away.
Our programs cater for all language levels from absolute beginners to the more advanced, include the use of course materials and provide a variety of options to enhance your program.
With the Direct Method of language training, you will learn to speak a foreign language more quickly and easily than you may expect. The goal of our methodology is to make you comfortable using your new language in the practical situations that you encounter in everyday life, for example: travel, conducting business, meeting people, using the telephone, meetings, participating in a conversation effectively, etc.
With our communicative and dynamic approach, you will rapidly find yourself speaking in a new language. Levels & method:
A typical week involves activities such as outings to salsa clubs, museum tours, happy hours, regional cooking lessons, local festivals, world-class theatre events, conversation clubs, cooking classes, Salsa classes, football games rafting, hiking and horse back riding.
Visit the Neighbourhood of La Boca or visit a National Park, Antique market or just enjoy this gastronomic paradise (some of the best food in the world). Chile's port city of Valparaiso and nearby Isla Negra, home to Nobel Prize-winning poet Pablo Neruda's most famous house, Buenos Aires tango shows, Santiago vineyard tours.
Living with a host family is probably the best and most effective way to become fully immersed into the language and culture of your chosen country.
All families are chosen after a careful selection procedure and are visited regularly by the school to ensure that high living standards are maintained. As many of our host families live in the surrounding neighborhoods, the trip to school, is usually not more than 30 minutes away.
Staying in a family is a truly wonderful experience and many students make lifetime friends with their host family. However, you should also have realistic expectations and recognize that an element of flexibility is required to adjust to the local customs and way of life. Your host family may not have the same comforts as your own home but you will always be treated as a guest and free to come and go as you wish.

"The course organised by Languages Abroad was the perfect way to improve my language skills and get to know the culture of a new place.
I made some new friends from all over the world and enjoyed the whole experience. The accommodation was better than expected although the information I was given wasn't up to date (e.g. who lives in the household).
From the day I began booking my trip to the day I left Buenos Aires, Languages Abroad were always willing to answer any questions and resolve any problems I had. When I wanted to upgrade my programme after my first week in Argentina, they organised the change really well together with the language school and everything went smoothly.
I couldn't have asked for a more organised and helpful company to deal with. The pre-departure information was the perfect way to prepare me for a trip like this to somewhere I had never visited before and it meant I was well prepared when I arrived and got the most out of my three weeks there.
________________________________
The staff was awesome. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Classes were pretty good, but a bit too by the book. Would have liked more real-life situations to be included. Atmosphere was nice--a very clean (aside from 1 bathroom for all students) and professional atmosphere, and other students were cool.
