Our group classes start every Monday during the year, except for Argentine holidays, and consist of 20 hours a week from 9 am to 1 pm, Monday through Friday. This schedule is conducive to learning Spanish as our students can take what they learn in the classroom in the morning and use it around the city in the afternoon.

Our average group class size is 4 students giving students plenty of one-on-one time with their teacher and ample time for questions or review. Students can practice conversation, engage in group activities, improve sentence structure, and maintain fluency throughout their Spanish learning with their fellow classmates.

All course materials, internet access and the student services that are provided at our school are included in the price. There are no reservation or booking fees.

At Expanish we believe the best approach to learning a language is to also learn about the culture and how the two intertwine. For this reason, we organize a number of activities and workshops so that our students can apply the Spanish that they have learned in the classroom to real life situations in order to improve upon both their speaking and comprehension abilities. These activities range from weekly student / staff dinners to day trips to the delta town of Tigre to visiting an Estancia (or Argentine ranch).

Faculty Information:
