We invite our students to learn Spanish in Argentina in an exciting and challenging environment, participate in cultural activities and immerse themselves into a Spanish speaking lifestyle.
Each day we attempt to make Expanish synonymous with the chance to live, breath, and truly experience the Spanish language. We work to combine first rate Spanish education with great travel abroad experiences so that our students in Spanish immersion programs in Argentina are able to take away the most they can from their experience with us. Expanish hopes that all students who choose to study Spanish in Argentina by taking our Spanish immersion courses in Buenos Aires will leave with improved Spanish skills and wonderful memories involving the language in and out of the classroom.
