Teach English in Buenos Aires

The program I did with Road doesn't require a TEFL certificate, so even though it's called "teaching English," it's really assisting a teacher in an English language classroom. I was placed at a private bilingual school, where I went for half-days every day because the school teaches half the day in Spanish and half in English. Since I was there during the "English half" I was asked not to speak Spanish to the students at all (so if you're hoping to practice Spanish, this isn't the best way do it). Sometimes I was just observing, but most of the time I was helping give one-on-one attention to students during activities. It took a little while to get settled in a routine because the English school coordinator hadn't really planned out which classrooms I'd be in, so I was moving around a lot between classrooms at first, and it's a shame that I only stayed for 4 weeks because I was just getting into a rhythm. (Part of the reason things were mixed up is that there were a lot of feriados, or holidays, while I was there so the school had a lot of days off.)

Road2Argentina is an amazing program for teaching in Argentina. They offer a wide variety of programs and really personalize each program for your interests. They make a strong effort to let you teach the grade and subject you are most interested in. They offer amazing support and fun weekly activities that are free for participants. The program allows you to not only meet other people on the program, but also immerse yourself in the culture and meet locals as well. I loved everything about this program and have no complaints!
