Language Programs in Buenos Aires, Argentina

作为中文母语者，想要通过高阶的DELE考试是一项非常有挑战和困难的事情，因此我在考试前三周选择了Academia BA来进行强化练习。主要是口语部分，因为在中国很少有练习口语的机会。学校里的老师也针对我的薄弱点进行了强化，众所周知阿根廷的口音是众多口音里最难理解的，所以在这所学校进行考前强化确实对我的听力水平有极大的提升。这门preparación的课程也是完全严格按照DELE口语考试的Tarea123顺序来进行，在练习过程中，学校老师会进行速记然后在我结束发言后会精准地指出我的错误并且纠正，除此之外还会建议我使用哪些frasess hechas以及muletillas来让我的表达更地道和连贯。Highly Recommend! Especially for those students from P.R.China, R.O.China, South Korea and Japan!

I started learning Spanish online with Academia Buenos Aires in January and then transitioned to in-person in July. The transition was seamless and one I highly recommend! The same immersive language experience and instruction carried over, together with passionate teachers who really cared deeply that we come to know, use, and appreciate the Rioplatense Spanish of the region. I wasn’t expecting to learn as much culture as I did, but I am leaving with a more profound understanding of the history and customs that have shaped Argentina. Each day was a joy to learn with La Academia! The office staff, the teachers, and my classmates made each day so fun! I was always greeted with a genuine smile, a “charla”, and timely or useful information whenever I needed it! I will definitely be continuing online as I prepare to write the DELE later this year. And I know Academia will continue to help me achieve that goal!

Review Title: A Fantastic Experience in Argentina My two months in Buenos Aires were unforgettable. The accommodations were comfortable and in great locations like Recoleta or Palermo, making it easy to enjoy everything the city has to offer. One of the best parts of the experience was meeting people from all over the world and building friendships that will last. The local staff were welcoming, helpful, and always willing to assist with any questions. Buenos Aires is an incredible city full of culture, great food, and amazing energy, and this program made it easy to feel at home from day one. I highly recommend it to anyone considering spending time in Argentina.

I approached Mente to do a language course during my time in Argentina and it proved to be a very rewarding decision. Joining Mente gave me a community in BA as well as being the gateway to meeting some of the people I would make my most lasting memories of Argentina with and would push me to continue to improve my spanish. I was hesitant to pay the extra for Mente rather than doing language classes independently but I am very grateful I made the decision to be a part of the community and enrich my whole trip with the activities and people from Mente.

I had the amazing opportunity to do a two-week Spanish immersion program through Mente. It was such an amazing experience. The apartment they provided was modern and in a great location. I looked forward to going to class every day and enjoyed all the activities they arranged. Buenos Aires is the most beautiful city I have ever visited, and I can't wait to go back. I have already recommended Mente to many friends and plan on returning for another program.

Mente’s staff were very responsive and flexible, even after I arrived. Honestly, I wasn't comfortable with my first room, but they quickly moved me and made sure I was comfortable, and are always happy to help. I loved the Spanish school and felt very safe in my neighborhood. Activities were scheduled week by week, so you’d find out the details closer to the date, which kept things feeling spontaneous. Some of the activities were group meals. We also visited some great spots I wouldn’t have found on my own. Overall, I am really glad Mente made this experience in BA possible without needing to arrange everything myself.

This program was amazing. I learned so much while being immersed in the countries culture and enjoyed the classes. I had so much fun with the friends that I made through the program. I would recommend this program to anyone who is interested in a language school abroad. It was absolutely phenomenal

I had the opportunity to spend four weeks in Buenos Aires this summer, and I loved it! In the short time I was there, my Spanish improved so much and so did my confidence in speaking. I got to learn a lot about the culture through excursions and chatting with my host mom at dinner. I loved my teacher, and I met a lot of new people in my class. 10/10 Highly Recommend!

I had a great experience with Expanish. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone hoping to learn Spanish when living in Spain! I believe that if I had more time, i.e. was only focused on the lessons, I would have been able to truly see the full extent of my growth while participating in the program. I was quite busy while completing my course, however I was still able to extract great learnings and a deeper understanding of the Spanish language.

Lovely having a community when you are somewhere new. Expanish provides that. Friendly staff, cute decor, Starbucks next door. If you want or need to switch types of classes you can which leaves room for flexibility. They make you feel at home. Thank you.

It was a great experience. The school in Málaga was great, and the staff and teachers wonderful. The school was located in the historic center, and it was really great to be able to walk everywhere. The people were amazing.

The time that I spent at Expanish was incredible, I got the chance to improve my Spanish, meet new people and places. The environment of the school is amazing, very welcoming and comfortable, the teachers are great, i loved all of the teachers i had, specifically patricia and eva, but everyone was really nice and could explain everything with many details and in a really interesting way, which made my learning way faster and cooler. I wish I could have stayed longer cuz it really was a great and special time of my life. Moreover, I loved my host family a lot, they made me feel home and i am really grateful, flor and orlando are really special and made my experience beautiful as well! :)

We hope you are well and if you ever come back to Barcelona do not hesitate to come and say hi! We would love to see you again! ¡Un fuerte abrazo!

After high school, I choose to take a gap year. And 6 months of that year I went to Barcelona to study Spanish, because I never learned it in high school and because I just love the language. It also was the first time living alone, but it was (most of the time) not so hard for me, also because I already knew the city a little bit. Overall, it was a great experience and I am very happy that I can understand and speak Spanish on a basic level now, because it’s always useful for in the future.

During the month of classes at expanish in Madrid I was able to significantly improve my Spanish skills! I would especially like to highlight the teachers at the school. All of them are incredibly friendly, open, and try to motivate students to learn Spanish. I wish all students would be as motivated, as this was the only thing sometimes bothering me during class. So thank you to all the incredible teachers and the friendly staff in general at Expanish Madrid!

Returning to Madrid was without a doubt my best choice and studying at Expanish was the second best. There I made a new family, new friends and created connections that I couldn't make anywhere else. Everything was exceptional! excellent teachers, welcoming place and my host family was very polite and special. They were all kept in my heart with great affection ❤️

I had a really good time at Expanish Malaga! The school and the teachers are fantastic and I would definitely recommend it! The other classmates were also very nice and friendly. I also really enjoyed the city, as it’s an interesting and vivid place. Going to the beach after school or for some tapas in the evening also made my stay even more enjoyable. I also enjoyed the trips I made to Cordoba, Granada and Gibraltar. My housing was a shared apartment, only 1 minute from the school, which was also very neat!

I fell in love with Argentina and its environment. The language classes were fun and full of interesting conversations. I really liked our teacher, Pablo. He was so funny and asked thought-provoking questions. The cultural activities were lovely and our homestay was so kind to us. I will forever have precious memories of Argentina.
