The Recoleta neighbourhood is ripe with activities and cultural sites for students to visit. Such attractions within walking distance of the school include the Centro Cultural Recoleta, the Plaza República del Paraguay, Plaza Mitre, the National Museum of Bellas Artes, and the National Library Mariano Moreno.

They regularly gather with students in the afternoon and go to the many parks in the Recoleta area of the city, where students and teachers alike can sit and enjoy having the traditional argentine infusion, mate, or organise soccer matches and practise sports. In November and December, polo matches are often part of the social programme. The school also organises visits to the 3 or 4 most interesting neighbourhoods in Buenos Aires and visits the sightseeing in them.

Student opinions about InterBA Spanish Institute, Buenos Aires

Liked
I am Hagen Javier from the USA. In 6 weeks I not only learned how to speak Spanish very well, I learned how to formulate my sentences correctly to build upon my time around Spanish speakers. Very well organized, and the excursions every week are a great way to know the city and to know other people. I was the only student in my class since I came in the middle of winter, but the quality of learning was very high.
Disliked
Nothing, I loved it all
Insider tips about what future students should not miss: Come in summer time in Argentina. November-March. Winter was fun too to see another side of the city.

The teaching style was very good. I felt that my teacher was of very high quality and structured the 3-hour class without using textbooks so that I would not get bored.
Disliked
It was inconvenient that I could not pay the balance of tuition to the school with a credit card. I had USD cash so I could pay.

If you want to have a bigger learning group for the purpose of joint activities, you should come during the main travel times. Also, the LanguageCourse.net WhatsApp group is hardly used during off-peak times (due to lack of participants). However, InterBA itself has organised very nice activities.
