Testimonials

A really wonderful school! Great staff, I loved my teacher Claudia. I also love how Expanish has lots of extracurricular activities. They are conveniently located in a charming townhouse in Palermo. I showed up in Buenos Aires knowing not one person (nor a word of Spanish), and within a month at Expanish I now have a wonderful group of friends, and I am able to converse in simple basic Spanish. If you are an adult wanting to learn Spanish at any level, and have a lot of FUN in Buenos Aires then I definitely recommend Expanish!

Great school. Located in Palermo (a safe neighborhood, even at night for alone women). There are many shops and restaurants close by that open until about 10:30 pm. The school has a lot of space and you can go there outside of class hours too. I went one day because I needed to work from there (remote office).

I had 3 very nice weeks at Expanish. Intensive Spanish lessons in small classes. Friendly teachers and staff in a pleasant environment where I felt at home immediately.

I had a great experience starting my Spanish learning journey here! I was here for two weeks. I really liked my instructor (Dolores), and my time here helped me form a strong foundation upon which I’ve been building as I continue my travels in South America. The school building itself is also quite nice, and everything ran smoothly administratively in my experience.

My time at Expanish was GREAT! It’s a small school so the staff know who you are and go out of their way to make sure you have a good experience. The intake process was smooth and I loved my teacher—I was only there for one week but I still made progress with my Spanish. And I made friends with my classmates! 10/10 would love to go back again!

My husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed our spanish courses at Expanish Buenos Aires. The environment is lovely, warm and inviting. In addition to the classes, the school offers lots of free activities for students to participate in (tours, cooking classes, dance classes, intercambios, etc). My husband and I are in our 60’s and have had a great time learning and participating in the school activities. I highly recommend Expanish for people of all ages. It has been a fantastic experience!
