Student Testimonial:
Saskia
de Schutter (Holanda):
I have in at Ecela for 12 weeks in total. Most of the
time I spend in Buenos Aires. I had, like almost everyone,
a great time there! Because BA is great city, but also
because of the school. A lot of really nice activities
are organised, in and outside BA. And if I needed to
know anything else, where to go or what to do, there`re
always the staff who can help you. It`s also a really
easy way to meet a lot of nice people! I also went a
week to the school in Bariloche. The school is really
diferent there, because it`s much smaller. But the people
are also al really nice and there`s a lot of stuff to
do in Bariloche aswell. It was a different experience
than BA, but also very good! So I think if you go to
Ecela there`s a really small chance that you won`t have
a good time!
Julie,
(USA): I find myself organizing my time and
trying to squeeze in social activities between the planned
events, my Argentine friends and the students themselves.
Never in my life have I have to turn down so many invitations
out.
Glauro
Bernardina (Brasil): Bueno, los 4 meses que
pase en Encela fueron preciosos, para mi crecimiento
personal. Pase super bien con toda la gente, pude mejorar
ene mi español, aprendi a llevar bien con las
diferencias, a respetar a todos en su forma de pensar,
de obrar y de ser como persona. Además de todo
y en especial, aprendi mucho, mucho, mucho español...
