Study Abroad Student Airport Pick-Up
Expanish recommends that parents and their students opt for our airport pick-up when your student arrives in Buenos Aires for their study abroad program. Your student will be met at the international airport and transferred to their accommodation by a hired, safe and secure car.
Pre-Arrivals and Welcome Materials
Parents can expect that their students will receive an electronic pre-arrival pack one week before their study abroad program begins in order to help your student prepare for their study abroad experience in Argentina. Upon arrival in Buenos Aires, your student will receive further welcome and orientation material including information about Buenos Aires, program and class information, activities, workshops, and excursions, as well as important safety information.
Study Abroad Spanish Conversation Partner
We ask parents to encourage their student to participate in our Expanish conversation exchange (Intercambio) where they will be partnered with an English student, meeting when they can, to spend time practising both Spanish and English. This is a great and free way for your student to practise Spanish, learn about the cultural, and to meet locals.
