Spanish Classes in Buenos Aires Argentina at Ibero
Our Spanish immersion courses here at our Spanish school in Buenos Aires are an intensive 20 hour per week course taught in communicative Spanish by native Spanish teachers from Argentina, Spain and/or Latin America armed with a vast experience on teaching the Spanish language to foreign students (non-native Spanish speakers). All our Spanish immersion courses at Íbero Buenos Aires will enable the student to achieve a level defined as ¨independent user¨ by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), which involves having enough autonomy to carry out the majority of the specific exercises that require the use of language in all Spanish speaking countries.
Each Spanish course at Ibero Spanish has a set schedule and number of Spanish classes hours provided by the school. All Spanish group classes will have a minimum of three students each. If, for any reason, this minimum cannot be reached, Íbero Spanish School Buenos Aires has the right to modify the class hours. Students in a group class of only one or two people will be provided with an academically equivalent structure of two hours of instruction.
All the prices for all students are the same as those posted on the school’s website. The student is required to complete payment on their first day of classes. Untimely completion of payment will result in the cancellation of all previously quoted discounts, and require the student to pay in full the posted price for all programs. Classes missed due to national holidays are not made up, but will be reflected in discounted weekly prices when necessary.
Each original Íbero textbook is the sole property of the individual who has the book, and it is to be used only for the academic course for which it was created. The textbook is personal and non-transferable, just like Íbero´s Spanish lessons, and it is prohibited to lend, gift or photocopy the Íbero Spanish textbook.
Our method of teaching Spanish to foreign students here at Íbero pays equal attention to developing all four language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing), with a special emphasis on the effective communication in Spanish.

The Path to Fluency: A 6-Month Roadmap
For a student starting from zero, we offer a thorough six-month immersion program that is widely considered one of the most comprehensive in Buenos Aires.
The First 3 Months: Building the Foundation
During the first ninety days, you will focus on the core pillars of the language: reading, writing, comprehension, and pronunciation. This period involves a mix of theory and practice to take you from a total beginner to an "independent user."
The Final 3 Months: Mastering the Culture
Once you have the foundation, the final three months bring your linguistic study into the real world. You will use media from current events, popular culture, and authentic texts like literature and movies to refine your skills and achieve Superior or Mastery levels.
Total Spanish Language Immersion: This six-month journey is the most effective way to achieve complete fluency because it forces you to use the language in every social and professional situation.
