Spanish Language Immersion - Materials and Method
Materials and Method
Standard classes material
All our class materials comply with DELE standards, and allow our students to gain a progressive mastery of Spanish grammar, as well as colloquial forms, right frm the beggining.
We consider that learning grammar is essential to acquiring a language, as it is the corner-stone to expressing oneself correctly, both formally and informally.
Spanish for special purposes material
Special Materials for Advanced Courses
AISL is the only school who has developed special materials, texts and exercises for advanced students (Level C2 of the Cervantes Institute syllabus).
Students are able to:
- Develop their communicative abilities in a higher language level
- Perfect their comprehension and expression skills
- Make contact with more sophisticated contents
- Speak and write according to functions and purposes of specialized subjects
Our System and Method
Our students, excepting beginners, are evaluated to determine their entrance level, so we can place each one in the group best matched to their ability, and to establish the appropriate program for their private classes.
Our concern is to meet the individual needs of each student during his/her acquisition of Spanish as a foreign language, for this reason our groups are no larger than 4 to 6 students each.

Group Courses
These classes are small, typically only 3 to 6 students, with similar levels of proficiency. AISL keeps classes small so that we can provide students with lots of personal attention.
AISL recommends the group classes to students who will be making longer visits, especially if they are interested in complementing their language studies with other cultural, sightseeing, and social experiences.
Home-stay
- Breakfast is included. Dinner can be provided at home (optional).
- Comfortable private or double rooms, with private or shared bathroom.
- AISL chooses your home-stay based on your preferences (smoking/non-smoking; couple with children/no children; etc) and your specific requirements (specific diet, no pets, etc.)
- Students staying with host families have total freedom to come and go as they please since they have their own house key.
- Host families homes are located in neighborhoods close to AISL and the city center. All families have been carefully selected and are monitored so that your home stay experience is to your complete satisfaction. AISL considers the level of culture, hospitality, affection, the comfort of the house, the atmosphere in the family, and the proximity to the school. Living standards are similar to Europe or North America.
- Home-stay is the perfect complement to increase your language learning and achieve complete cultural immersion. It is an opportunity to experience the culture and life-style of Argentina first-hand, and establish new friendships that will last you a lifetime.
