ECELA Buenos Aires
Buenos Aires, ArgentinaWhy choose ECELA Buenos Aires:

High focus on conversational skills.
Chance of transferring between other ECELA schools in Argentina, Chile, and Peru within the same program—known as “hopping.”
Regular activities to discover Buenos Aires and its surroundings.
Small classes that ensure a highly-personalized experience for the students.
ECELA Buenos Aires philosophy:
We carefully designed a Spanish cultural immersion for our students’ success, incorporating a “school hop” between our schools for a multi-culture (and multi-accent) experience and spending over half of each class in micro-group conversational activities to get the most speaking practice. We encourage our students to interact as much as possible with other students, staff members, and with their hosts because we believe that lots of speaking time helps our students’ Spanish to not “just be good on paper”.

"I did a two-week program and loved it. The staff frequently organize activities after class, which is a great way to see Buenos Aires and meet the other students. The teachers did a really great job. My conversation instructor, Mariana, helped me put into use all the grammar I had learned in college. Thanks for a great program!”
