School

Our partner school in Buenos Aires distinguishes itself by a very Argentinian passion for education in an elegant setting. For the teachers who will surround you, teaching Spanish in Buenos Aires means opening a door onto the culture of their country. The course centre is located at the heart of Buenos Aires, a few hundred metres away from the famous obelisk of the Avenida 9 de Julio. Close to the intersection of three metro lines and the most important bus lines, the school is easy to access, surrounded by numerous bars and restaurants of this very lively district and a few minutes' walk from Florida Street, the shopping pedestrian area. You will learn Spanish in a magnificent baroque-style building with high ceilings, nice wood parquet floors and the appearance of a private hotel of Paris. The 14 classrooms are bright and large, and a pleasant common area or a spacious cafeteria allow students to meet during breaks over a coffee and snacks. Two nice outdoor patios for relaxing after classes, free Internet access via WiFi and air-conditioning/heating throughout the building characterise this school which has recently been extended in order to now occupy two floors of a stylish building in the city centre.
