Studies show that we learn best in nature. We intuitively know nature makes us happy. At La Montaña, we are offer something unique- to learn Spanish in astounding nature, which means to learn language in a new light.
So, why did you decide to make the leap and study Spanish in the first place? If you are someone who wants to not only learn Spanish but travel with a purpose, then La Montaña can provide you with the perfect opportunity to become immersed in intentional travel.

While learning Spanish and experiencing the beautiful nature of Bariloche, there are opportunities in which you can become involved to further practice your Spanish and help the community and environment.

Not to mention gaining experience in volunteer work, you will receive discounts on Spanish classes when you realize that this opportunity is exactly what you’ve been looking for while traveling and learning a new language.
