Study Spanish in Argentina : Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is there a minimum level of Spanish required in order to take a course at Mundo Español?
No, there are no prerequisites for these Spanish programs. There are beginner's level classes so if you have no previous knowledge of Spanish, you will be placed accordingly in a group of students that have the same level of the language.
2. When can I start my Spanish immersion program?
All Spanish immersion programs start on Monday of every week but the student is free to decide on which day he wants to start lessons and also the duration of his course.
3. How do I determine the level of my Spanish and what course I should take?
When you register for a course with Mundo Español, we will send you a placement test and on the first day of classes you will also have an oral evaluation. From these two tests an assessment will be made and you will be placed in a class with students that have a similar level of Spanish as you do.
4. How will the level of my Spanish be evaluated at the end of my course?
Your progress will be evaluated by taking tests throughout the course as well as at the end and a certificate will be given at the end with your final grade.

10. What is the class schedule like?
Classes are held from 930 to 130 from Monday to Friday leaving the rest of the day free to get to know the city and do other cultural and tourist activities, such as tours of Buenos Aires, Argentine tango lessons or visits to museums or other historic sites in the city, all of which can be arranged by Mundo Español. However classes may take place on afternoons depending on the program that you choose and if you are taking for example customized or private Spanish lessons.
