STUDY TRIP

COINED, in co-operation with local tour operators, is offering a program in which you will have the opportunity of combining an intensive Spanish course with a complete tourist program that you will share with a group of people from Argentina as well as from abroad.

During the week, students combine an Intensive Spanish course with extra curricular activities, such as guided tours to the historical town of Buenos Aires or Cordoba city or taking part in dance and cooking classes at the school.

During the weekends you will have free time to rest or explore Buenos Aires or Cordoba city. If you wish, COINED can arrange excursions outside the city (Please see below) where you can discover the beautiful countryside of Argentina.

Finally, you will travel to the North of Argentina or to Patagonia, passing through the most picturesque regions of the country.

THE SPANISH COURSE

This Spanish course is specially designed for students studying abroad with the goal of exercising practical vocabulary, grammatical structure, and intensive conversation.

During the classes, students will also be introduced to Argentinean culture. Our aim is not only that you learn and perfect your Spanish skills, but that you also integrate into the Argentine culture as much as possible.

The Spanish course is divided into three levels: Basic, Intermediate and Advanced. Before the Spanish course begins, the professors will assess each student in order to place them in the appropriate level. The classes are given in the main offices of COINED. During the Spanish course the teachers arrange small trips to distinctive places throughout the city to help the students familiarize with their surroundings.

• Duration: The Spanish course includes 60 lessons of 50 minutes each, and classes run everyday from Monday to Friday. Spanish Course schedules vary slightly according to the specific development of the final trip of this program.
• Teachers: The teachers are native Spanish speakers from Argentina, experienced in teaching Spanish as a foreign language. They all have University training and are culturally sensitive, which is fundamental to the interaction with the students. If possible, a teacher who is familiar with the native language of a student is assigned in order to facilitate the communication.
• Certificate: At the end of the course COINED will issue a certificate of completion of the Intensive Spanish Course.
