What we like about the school
  • Own study material
  • Small class sizes
  • Excellent rating of teaching quality
    4.7
  • Free assistance in finding flats for long-term students.
What we dislike about the school
  • Average age of students is a bit higher than at most schools. Great for students 25 years or older.

Location: Academia Buenos Aires is located in the bustling and culturally rich capital city of Argentina, Buenos Aires. The school is housed in a centrally located building with a spacious, renovated interior and a friendly and open environment. The school is close to the renowned Plaza de Mayo and many eateries, links to public transport and sites of social and cultural interest. Such attractions within walking distance of the school include the Teatro Colon, the Centro Cultural Kirchner (CCK), Palacio Barolo, the Plaza del Congreso and many more.

Getting around: The school is a short 130m walk from the nearest subway station, Peru station. Bus stations and taxi services can also be found equally close to the school.

Social and cultural: The city is so grand in size and population that the social and cultural aspects of Buenos Aires may take many visits to see and experience! Academia Buenos Aires promotes the local culture and happenings through an active and varied social calendar, with many activities free of charge or low cost. Every week the school proposes four social or cultural experiences for students to take part in that week. The school promotes that language and culture go hand-in-hand and that both play an important role in learning a language. Activities arranged by the school can include language workshops, movie nights, guided city tours, tango shows, theatre visits and much more.

Special note for 2025 holiday season: If you plan to take a course during the high season months of April, June, July or August 2025 we urgently advise you to book as early as possible. In 2024 many schools were fully booked during the holidays, and the situation is unlikely to be different for 2025 due to a current shortage of teachers, which affects most schools.

Our teacher was great.There were only two of us and we spoke a lot of Spanish. The school was very flexible and even the public holiday was made up. The pick-up from the airport and contact with the host family went really well.
Disliked
Unfortunately too few joint excursions, the two that were offered within two weeks were great. It would be good if the first information email included what you need to do to use public transport. Get a Sube card from the kiosk and top it up. Individualised directions from the host family to the school would also be great.

We had the perfect teacher in Guadolope. Her methods were varied and the lessons flew by. The excursion to La Boca was very interesting, but difficult for beginners. Dedicated management of the school.

The lessons were very good! Small classes and very easy to understand language. The students were directly involved and everything was clearly explained. There was homework which was discussed directly.
Details of the review
Other comments The accommodation was not good! Indeed lovely and well located, but no working heating (very cold!). The other roommates had nothing to do with the school, i.e. you had little contact with other classmates, which was actually the purpose of the shared apartment! Scruffy apartment, moldy fridge. Not worth it. At least for the price!

We spoke a lot during the lessons. They immediately start speaking in Spanish, which helps a lot!!
Details of the review
Quality of teaching / language progress: The intensive group course is very nice! 4 hours for me in a day is enough, you have also lots of time to explore the city and meet people. In a group is a nice idea because I learned a lot from other people. (About the question the afternoon activities and excursions offered by school, I did not do anything there, so I don't know it, but I heard from other people that they liked it).

I think the teaching should be in Spanish-Spanish, not Argentine Spanish. It gets confusing when you go to other Spanish-speaking countries.

Enthusiasm of the teachrs.
Insider tip: I attended A1 level class. However, it was absolutely essential to review and prepare for the lessons, as the pace of the lessons was quite fast. Even if I was prepared well, sometimes I couldn't follow them. When you have some questions, you should ask a teacher without any hesitation. If the teacher recognizes you have some difficulties, he (and even your classmates as well) helps you to understand them. I was very happy with my class. You should have the solid motivation to learn, otherwise you will have a hard time there. Of course, if you devote to study at the school, you'll be rewarded. The school offers the free coffee/tea service. As the students have a break at the same time, a student room is always packed.
