Study abroad- VALPARAISO, CHILE or BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA?

Study Abroad in Buenos Aires, Argentina for this upcoming summer?

  • I am an American and I really want to go to another country, (i have my eyes set on Argentina) this upcoming summer. I want to learn a language. I know I am only going to speak a language fluently if i immerse myself w/i an environment in which people only speak that language. I have taken French all my life, but I am extremely confident I can pick up Spanish, as i am a fast learner and i have complete determination and faith in myself. I am currently a senior in high school, so I will be 18 by the time i arrive in Buenos Aires and when my summer vacation is over i will have to go back to America to attend my University. (I want to leave sometime in June) i want to leave immediately after my high school graduation. I hope to only return to America to attend my university. Does anyone have any good suggestions or programs that can provide me with an opportunity that i have drawn out? I do not want to be part of a program that would confine me and set a strict schedule. I want to perhaps stay with a host family, explore Buenos Aires freely and the rest of Argentina. Rest assured i have every intention of treating my host family (if this should occur) with the utmost respect and abiding by their rules. I believe staying with a host family would greatly benefit me as i would have someone to converse with (in Spanish) I also would like to take a language class (if possible...I'm sure it is) but i am totally open to suggestion. Thank you very very much...i hope to hear some great responses soon THANKS A MILLION!!!

  • Answer:

    Argentina is a great place to visit but the only problem I see is that if you learn Spanish therem you will learn a type of spanish which is only spoken in Argentina. Grammar is different from the rest of spanish spoken elsewhere and so is the accent. If you want to learn really good spanish go to either Peru or Colombia where the most pure spanish is spoken according to the Royal Academy of the spoken language.
