If you book through a booking agency, it is very hard to adjust your booking (e.g. group lessons --> private lessons).

My teacher, Florencia, has been amazingly professional, and really made it worth! There is also a very nice atmosphere in the school, and I've met very nice people. I will definitely go back, and why not, next time, use the accomodation facility which I haven't used this time (I was staying with friends).
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
The town is worth the trip, people are friendly, there is a lot to see and to do, the culture there is amazingly rich. I've met people whom I am still in contact with and hope to welcome in Europe in turn, and go back and visit. Argentina's a really big country, and I will need a thousand trips to see it all!
