Program Overview

Grow your Spanish skills in the multicultural city of Buenos Aires.

Accelerate your Spanish with four weeks of language immersion in one of the world's most beloved cities, Buenos Aires. After language classes, dive into Spanish conversations while exploring bustling markets, eclectic architecture, and the city's vibrant 48 neighborhoods. Get an insider’s feel for Argentina’s multicultural identity through its tango music, street food, and fútbol. Meet locals while visiting the cultural centers of Corrientes Avenue, the historic French-styled neighborhood of Recoleta, the National Museum of Fine Arts, and more.

With your host family, practice your new language skills and experience authentic Argentinian life. On weekend excursions, visit an estancia (ranch) to eat some of the best parrillada (barbecue), and embark on a trip to Iguazú, the largest waterfall system in the world, where you'll take in Argentina's lush, biodiverse landscapes. By immersing yourself in this creative and passionate country, you will not only advance your Spanish but also experience the warm and vibrant spirit of Latin America.

Program Highlights

Hit the streets to trace the city’s vibrant graffiti and street art scene; discover how Buenos Aires became one of the coolest capitals for this edgy artform.
Step on the dance floor to work on your tango and milonga moves in a dance class, and understand the history of these traditional dances at the core of Argentinian culture.
Explore the ecological reserve Costanera Sur, a huge, biodiverse green space in Buenos Aires with more than 500 plant species and 300 bird species; then, catch panoramic views of the Río de la Plata.
Find yourself among rows of bookshelves and admire the domed roof and winding stairs at the most spectacular bookstore in the world, El Ateneo.

I learned a lot!

it was very fun and i really learned a lot during my trip. i know a lot of people that want to leave for programs and i had a great time so i would probably recommend this one. also ciee has a partnership with my school so i would probably recommend it to people at my school since it’s already pretty connected. I loved going to Iguazú Falls.

Valuable experience

It was a good experience! I don’t know if I learned as much about the language as I thought I would, but my Spanish still improved immensely, I learned a lot about a different culture, my perspective on my own culture in relation to others has changed, and I now view living abroad and my kids having an international life as a very viable possibility. I think that has been very valuable.

Prepare for college abroad!

I had a great time in the program, and I think lots of students at my school who take Spanish (or another language) would appreciate the opportunity to make all of the language learning worth something. Plus, it's a great opportunity to make friends and prepare for college (both in terms of applications and just being self-sufficient).
