BUENOS AIRES
I have studied in different countries, but this experience was awesome!
My teacher Cecilia worked as a professional but she was also polite
and fun, and I consider her a friend. Thanks Cecilia for your patience,
smile and company! Ileana was always in a good mood, and she always
participated in the activities. In my opinion, she is the foundation
of the school. It was a lovely experience!

I enjoyed an experience that included good activities to know the
city and the other students better. But, most of all, I learnt a
lot thanks to the quality of the teachers. They were not only my
teachers but also my friends. My family could not have been better,
we have become very good friends, I got on well with Francisco who
is an excellent cook. Now I have a place to stay next time I am
in Buenos Aires.
With respect to the activities, I was impressed by the philharmonic
orchestra and the tango classes, I learnt how to dance a little.
But the most important thing for me is that the waiter of Mr Mate
taught me how to prepare a GOOD mate.
I recommend:
- although you are on holidays, please do the homework, it will
help you.
- read.
- even if it is difficult for you, speak Spanish with the other
students, not only with the Argentine. You will not learn anything
speaking your own language!!

liked my time in TANDEM. The teachers are very good and effective.
I loved that there was always something to do at nights. My family
was the best. In short, I would not change anything about my experience
in TANDEM.
I enjoyed the activities a lot. My favourite one was tango classes
at Mr Mate.

This
was the first time I visited Buenos Aires and I loved the city and
the friends I have made. The school is well located and the people
are very kind. I learnt a lot in the classes and I think I will
be back in the future to stay longer.

Tandem has the best program and teacher I have ever had. The information
that Ileana gave me about the city and Buenos Aires way of living
was very useful. Congratulations on TANDEM personnel!!!! You are
very professional, pleasant and friendly! Now I am very busy at
work in the office and ( Attention!:) since yesterday we have had
30 cm. snow on the streets. It is hard to come back to daily routine
life!
I will recommend TANDEM as a school to study Spanish and Argentina
to be visited. I am looking forward to coming back to Argentina
in the future.

I stayed in a flat with Argentine girls. I got on well with my flatmates.
I enjoyed all the trips organized by the school. I think it is good
to practice Spanish and to get to know the city. I participated
in lots of activities. I went to Tigre, to Uruguay and to the Empanadas
party!.
This school is excellent. It is well located, the teachers are professional
and the people are friendly, especially Ileana and Megumi because
they care a lot about the students.
Everything is very good!!!! I love the school and I recommend it
to everyone!! It organizes lots of activities that help us enjoy
the city!. Attention in the office is excellent!
I would love to come back!

It was a great and unique experience: we made a lot of
friends and everything was wonderful. Two weeks were not enough
since we had such a nice time and so much to keep learning about
the language and the culture.

I do not need to say that TANDEM has a good teaching level. Moreover
there are teachers who are very kind and have a great heart.
The atmosphere at the school is great and the best of all is that
people are not troublesome.
It is like a big family, everybody is always ready to help.
The most important for me is that people here make their best to
make the students feel well.

The professors at TANDEM are very professional. Classes are planned
according to each student´s skill and need. The school is
sensitive to the fact that students have come to Bariloche to learn
Spanish and to learn about the culture. As a result, a student ends
her course well rounded in Spanish Culture with a firm foundation
in the language. In regards to my host family, it was perfet for
me. Her home was very clean and neat.
I recommend TANDEM highly! If you are a student searching for a
short term course or long term course, TANDEM is for you.

The school and all staff are very professional and friendly.
- location of the school is convenient
- course material is suitable and relevant to visitors from other
countries
- classrooms are well equipped
Christina Kreitlow
I could neither speak nor write in Spanish when I arrived. The teachers
gave me a lot of attention and were very helpful. There are lots
of opportunities to speak Spanish,not only in class but also in
the extra activities; which, by the way, are so many. In a few words,
TANDEM is a good place to meet other students, practice Spanish
and learn about the city.

CORDOBA
I stayed in Cordoba, Argentina for little over two months
and loved it. I attended classes while I was there and thought that
the teachers were excellent. Not only were they intelligent but
they were all very friendly and fun people to go out with and to
get to know. I picked Cordoba because I felt like I could learn
more there than in Buenos Aires. While I was attending TANDEM, I
attended most activities that were held because they were usually
a lot of fun. My favorite was camping in the mountains with Rolo
and his friends.
Clark Blakely
My family was the best. I did not know much Spanish and they were
very patient and helpful. They absorbed me into the family fold
and I felt very comfortable and safe. They were open to all my questions
and helped me to adapt.
Two weeks is not enough! Many students came and went while we were
here and I feel in 5 weeks I had an invaluable experience. The most
frequent comment I heard from other students was "I wish I
could stay longer".
Hope Cypryla-Jennings
I have really enjoyed studying Spanish at TANDEM. The staff are
extremely friendly and always ready to answer any questions whether
it is about the course or not, they join to provide one local knowledge.
My teacher Guadalupe has always been very patient with me when I
did not quite understand and really made my classes interesting
by incorporating local culture and history in the lessons. This
is my fortune, studying Spanish, and TANDEM have provided a great
foundation for me to continue learning Spanish.
Thank you,
