LA MONTAÑA SPANISH IN BARILOCHE, PATAGONIA, ARGENTINA

In 2012 La Montaña and Spanish in Bariloche – two of the leading Spanish schools in Patagonia, started working together to maximize the quality of the academic and cultural experience. Founded in 2002, we have more that 10 years of experience in teaching Spanish to people with various backgrounds, interests and nationalities. We offer customized group and private classes, Spanish immersion programs, family stays, special packages and volunteer & internship opportunities.

 

We are glad to have such a privileged location in the heart of one of the most desired destinations in Argentina. Bariloche, the capital of adventure of Argentina, is the perfect place to combine studying Spanish with enjoying magnificent scenery, endless outdoor sports and activities all year around, and the best skiing in South America in winter.

Student Stories: Ramon

Ramon estuvo con nosotros 14 semanas y obtuvo un Master en "Che, Vos y Mate". Mucha suerte en tu viaje! Te vamos a extrañar mucho!

Durante mis clases en La Montaña tenia profesores increíbles. Profesores de Buenos Aires, Barcelona, Bariloche, y partes diferentes de Argentina. Todos los profesores son muy inteligentes, divertidos, y amables. Cuando llegue a Bariloche y a la escuela, no sabia que iba a encontrar. Yo aprendí muy rápido que toda la gente es muy simpática. Yo vivía con una familia de Argentina  por tres meses. Mi experiencia mejoró tanto con la familia. Podía practicar mi español, comía comida muy rica, y pasaba tiempo en una cultura diferente. Además, los estudiantes de la escuela siempre tenían ganas de estudiar y aprender español. La escuela tiene un ambiente muy bueno y les da a los estudiantes muchas oportunidades para aprender. Las clases de cocina, los juegos, clases de yoga y mucho mas me enseñaron mucho.     

  La Montaña es la razón porque puedo hablar español y comunicarme con la gente de America del Sur. Ahora, me voy a otros partes pero ya quiero regresar a la Montaña. No voy a olvidarme de nada de mi experiencia en Bariloche y espero que pueda regresar un día. Gracias a mi familia, mis profesores, Verónica, María y todos mis amigos. Fue una experiencia asombrosa.

My wife and I spent five weeks with Spanish in Bariloche

My wife and I spent five weeks with Spanish in Bariloche, Spanish School. Veronica made excellent arrangements and we could not have asked for a better instructor than Sasha. Sasha dealt with our differing needs in Spanish in intensive one-of-one sessions. Always cheerful, always on time — a sheer delight.

The Spanish instruction is wonderful

Veronica runs a fantastic program at "Spanish in Bariloche".  The Spanish instruction is wonderful but, on top of that, she and her team  also do so much more! Her school is terrific and the teachers are excellent. However, the big bonus for me was that she helped us organize our trip and also helped us find a place to stay and things to do while we were there.  If Veronica had not been so instrumental in helping us get organized, we probably would not have gone to Bariloche and would have missed out on amazing hikes and nature, wonderful food, excellent spanish instruction and a wonderful summer camp.  My three boys (3, 8 and 10 years old) loved the classes and activities and learned so much and my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed
exploring all that Bariloche has to offer. Veronica is a sweetheart and a delight to work with and know.  I can't recommend her highly enough.

This is a community to help!

The school was reccommeded by a friend. I received very attentive and quick responses from Veronica. Overall, the Spanish School was very good for my experience, friendships and help with my life in general!! This is not just a Spanish School. This is a community to help with every aspect of your time in Bariloche. I couldn't have survived three months in Bariloche without all their help and support.

A highly enjoyable and fulfilling experience at Spanish in Bariloche

Thank you so much for a highly enjoyable and fulfilling experience. Whilst I still have a huge amount to learn, I feel as though have made heavy good progress which now needs lots of practice to consolidate. The Spanish school has clearly employed a number of excellent teachers but I have personally, been impressed with the quality of teaching that I have received from my teacher who has been highly motivating, well organised + incredibly patient. As a teacher myself, I recognise the skills that have made her so effective for my learning and cannot thank her enough.
