"I have been here in Buenos Aires for two months and it was a great experience!!!!! And i will never forget my experience here!!!
I enjoyed the Spanish course and the volunteer work a lot. The people are very friendly and nice and they tried to make me happy to work there.
I've learned now how to work with little baby's, because i'm was really afraid to work with them. But I learned that they only need love and holding and attention.
It was an great experience!!!!!"

"Mi vida porteña
Yo disfrutaba cada día en Buenos Aires. Me encanta Argentina; la gente, la cultura y naturalmente la carne… y Buenos Aires es la ciudad perfecta para mí. Podía bailar un montón de Salsa, Samba y aprendí también un poco de Tango. Me gustaban las conversaciones en el subte, en el colectivo o en la cola delante de la caja del supermercado “Coto”. La gente acá es mucho más abierta y cariñosa que en Suiza. También más emocional, por ejemplo durante un partido de fútbol. Voy a extrañar todo eso y especialmente mi mate diario.
Podía mejorar mi español acá, en la escuela en mi familia y en la residencia. GRACIAS a Amauta y especialmente a mis profesoras: Natalia, Lucía, Geraldine y Bárbara. Cada día tenía ganas de ir a la escuela. Siempre era muy divertido y las profesoras creaban un ambiente amistoso pero eficiente. No sólo aprendí la gramática, sino también practicamos y charlamos mucho. La mezcla entre la teoría y la practica era perfecto para mí. Muchas veces tomábamos mate y charlábamos después de las clases. Así podía conocer a mucha gente y hacer nuevos amigos."

"Our experience at the Amauta Buenos Aires Spanish school was fantastic. The facility is beautiful and very comfortable. Paul and I both thought all of our teachers were excellent and that we were both placed in the appropriate classes for our levels. Most importantly, our kids had a great time. They both loved their classes. All their teachers were great, and Sherilynn organized fun activities for the kids that they really enjoyed, like the scavenger hunt and the play. They looked forward to the play all week long!
We’re hoping to return in the Summer of 2011 for a longer stay. Until then…"

"Our thoughts from the very first beginning till now are: WOW.. We love Buenos Aires as a city, it's great to live and study in. Every day is a completely other day. We live in the super-residence close to school. The house is very big and has everything what you need. A big kitchen, great rooms, a lot of nice students, safety, swimmingpool etc. etc. It's close to a subte, school and supermarkets, so you can walk everything. The school also is very nice, great building with nice people, especially the teachers! The service is really good, if something is wrong you will get help right away.
Well thats everything till now, we are enjoying and loving the city, and look foward to the next 6 weeks!!
Nikki & Maxime"

"Amauta es un lugar muy especial! En el primer día, me sentí inmediatamente muy cómodo en la escuela. Los profesores eran muy amables y siempre contentos. Las clases eran bien preparado, divertido y interesante. Yo aprendí mucho. Ahora todavía es difícil, pero puedo hablar y escribir en español! Me gustaban mucho las actividades por las tardes. Especialmente en las primeras semanas, cuando quise conocer a los otros estudiantes. Mi familia (Barby y Bernardo Botte) era fantástico! Tenían una casa linda y eran amables. Tenía un cuarto y un baño solo para mí. Muy cómodo! Me ayudaban con mis planes de viajar en Argentina, con la ruta y con comprar tickets de avión. Después yo ira al hostel, me invitaban para un asado cuando mi novio llegó a Buenos Aires.
La residencia me gustaba mucho también. Hay un buen ambiente, gente amable, tiene muchos colores, flores y una terraza muy linda. Utilizamos mucho durante los días y noches de primavera.
He disfrutado mucho estas 8 semanas en AMAUTA!"

"Amauta Spanish School is not just a school to learn the Spanish language, it’s also a good place to have joy and make new friends. You are always welcome and there are enough nice activities to enjoy yourself. The classes are interactive and the teachers are the best! I also learnt a lot about Argentine culture and about the country itself"

"AMAUTA language school in Buenos Aires offers a great environment to learn Spanish. The teachers were extremely friendly and approachable and balanced the classes with an adequate mix of conversation and grammar. Furthermore, the classes were varied (including literature, drama, role-play and more) and pitched at the right level and included teachers from different countries in Latin America, enabling me to understand different accents and forms of Spanish. The additional activities (which included walking tours of the city, tango classes and visits to prominent museums in the city) encouraged me to learn much more about Argentina outside of the classroom and were a great way to get to know the other students. For an all -round language- and cultural-learning experience, I would definitely recommend AMAUTA."

"In July 2009, I was studying at Amauta Spanish School in Buenos Aires. I decided to do the programme of "Spanish and Volunteer Work". I didn't know much of Spanish when I came to Buenos Aires. That's why I really enjoyed the classes at Amauta, where I could learn the language quickly. I was surprised how fast I could make progress and have the first "real" conversations.
I liked the teachers and also the fact that there were very small classes. This gave us students the opportunity to improve more quickly, as the teachers could also respond to individual questions. Moreover, the atmosphere at the school was always very nice. It was not only about learning a language; it was also about getting to know the Argentinean culture and lifestyle. I felt like all the staff wanted me to feel at home: If you are looking for a place to have dinner, just ask! You will get at least 5 different recommendations!.
Buenos Aires is an excellent place to learn Spanish, to live and to have a good time! If you want to get to know new places, learn Spanish and meet new people, just take the opportunity!"

"Hi, I am Denise, I am twenty years old and I spent two months here in Buenos Aires. I learned Spanish at AMAUTA Spanish School, which was really cool, because the teachers are so nice, but so were the people I had class with. I met so many nice people from all over the world and we had a great time together. I enjoyed the free time activities AMAUTA offers. They were really interesting. I also loved my volunteer work. Everything was so well organized and the people and the children there were also very nice. Enjoy your stay!"
