City Info:

Buenos Aires is truly a world class city! It boasts European sophistication while retaining Latin charm. The city offers with countless pubs, cafes, colorful neighborhoods and an active nightlife diversion for many weeks or even months of exploration while learning and practicing Spanish!
Argentina’s capital is often called the “Paris of South America” because of its beautiful architecture, the impressive buildings and the attractive streets. The avenues of this big city with about 11 million habitants are famous because of its restaurants, theatres, tango shows and a lot of other pleasure possibilities for all the flavors.

An important aspect, which makes Buenos Aires even more attractive, are the low prices. Since the peso crashed some years ago, the city has become a bargain. The convenient currency rates with dollars for example, Euros or the yen made Buenos Aires to an important attraction of South America.
Apart from the fantastic capital, Argentina offers more for its visitors: the waterfalls in Iguaçu or Patagonia are unforgettable. Furthermore you can benefit from the short distance to Uruguay’s Colonia or the famous beach of Punta del Este


The School

We are the only school in Argentina, which is certificated by IALC (International Association of Language Centers) and can offer you a service of international quality and a warm and social ambiance to make your stay unforgettable!
Our school is located in the Recoleta neighborhood, one of the best neighborhoods of Buenos Aires. It is the ideal location for your Spanish immersion: close by a lot of restaurants, bars, cafes, attractive parks, museums, cinemas and shops. It is a very nice place, which connects culture, outdoor activities and fun with big attraction.
Recoleta is an upper-middle class neighborhood, safe at all hours and has many housing options available.
Our school building is constructed in the traditional “porteño-style” with stairs made of marble, floors of mosaic, a terrace and balconies.  We have 18 class rooms, community areas with free internet access, where our students can enjoy the breaks.
The school is well situated, only some minutes away from the subway station and the main bus lines and many housing options, we can organize for you, are closed by, as well as important sightseeing places of the city.

COMBINATION Buenos Aires – Santiago - Bariloche

ECELA offers you not only the opportunity to explore the Argentinean and Chilean capital but also invite you to explore the tourist capital of Patagonia, Bariloche.

Spanish and Tango

Buenos Aires is the cradle of the most passion and magical dance which exists: the TANGO. There are fancy tango shows in theatres or restaurants or you can see couples dancing tango on the streets… that is an essential part of the culture of Buenos Aires.
Dare to learn dancing tango with talented teachers and to practice during the nights of Buenos Aires!
You can complete your Spanish course with a tango course, which offers 4 tango lessons a week. You have group and private lessons to improve as fast as possible, so that you can bring a little bit Argentina home to your country!

HOUSING

During your stay you have several housing options. You can either have us arrange you a room in a student apartment or organize a home stay with an Chilean upper-middle class family. Of course, it is also possible to arrange a room yourself.

Shared Apartment: Our most popular housing option is the shared apartment, where you will live with other students. No meal plan is available with the shared apartments, however you have kitchen access to prepare your own meals. Furthermore, cooperation with other students is necessary as the common areas are maintained only once per week. The student apartment is the best option for everyone who wants to combine the Spanish experience with meeting new friends. All apartments are fully furnished and equipped.
You may have a private or shared room, with a same-sex roommate selected by our staff.

Family Stay: To make your immersion program complete, you may have us arrange a home stay with a local family.  We strongly recommend this option as it allows you to practice and to improve your Spanish in a natural environment while also exposing you to the local culture.  All families are carefully selected and provide the student with a private room, kitchen access, and comfortable surroundings. You may have a private or shared room, with a same-sex roommate selected by our staff.

TESTIMONIALS

Julie: I find myself organizing my time and trying to squeeze in social activities between the planned events, my Argentine friends and the students themselves. Never in my life have I have to turn down so many invitations out.
