I am an English teacher, and although I am not reading Shakespeare, my classes are not all conversational. Frankly, I have students who say they want conversation but it gets old quickly. You will inevitably need to teach grammar, idioms, phrasal verbs, etc in order to move beyond talking about...

Women here (and men for the fact) LOVE to stare at people. To me and the culture I was brought up in, it's rude. I asked my Argentine students about this and they say a few things: They are studying you to figure out where you are from, they are jealous of something you are wearing, they think...

We sat down with high hopes. We were greeted right away, ordered our food and waited. After a group of 6 came and went, and a group of 2 who sat down after us already received their food, we asked what was going on (there were only 3 tables---at least 45 mins for food is a bit too long). The...

Thanks everyone for your help. It looks like I will just be staying on the Argentina side. I was trying to save money by not crossing into Brazil and paying the visa fee and thought I could get away with a visa stamp at CDE, but I guess not. I already paid 800 pesos for a bus ticket there and...

I am going to Iguazu Falls this weekend, however we are staying on the Argentine side. I am in need of a visa stamp this month. Is there any way I can get stamped at Ciudad del Este? Is there even border patrol there checking passports? Someone told me that everyone just comes in and out without...

I would totally be interested in one class per week. I am not interested in Tango or Swing though--any interest in any Salsa/Bachata/Merengue, etc type dances?? Will the classes be in English or Spanish?

Yes, Whistle is from your computer to housephones/cell phones. So I'm not sure if that will work for you or not. I use it all the time and I have doctors or whoever call me back on the number.

I use whistle. You download it on your computer like Skype and you can make free calls to landlines and cell phones to the US. Plus, you get to pick the area code of the phone number they assign you.

Wait! The govt can tell you that you can't use a name? Seriously?

Ooof--I thought it was disgusting and I love gourmet thin crust pizzas! The waiter was very nice though.

I'm interested in going to the dance studio/gym Bailar. It's on Las Heras and it looks like a great mix of dance classes along with a couple of yoga and pilates classes. Anyone been? Thanks!

I've seen Ziploc bags at Coto and Jumbo. They are usually around the cleaning supplies. The only difference is that they come in a package of only 6 or so. No 100 count boxes here!

Yes, I work at an institute without a work visa. Each institute is different--some take taxes out in an attempt to be legit (although you use an Argentine's CUIT number--shady). The other institute I worked for didn't take taxes out. You get paid in cash or by a check.

Yea, the Wall Street Institute is horrible! I have not heard one good thing from any of their students or their teachers. Do not work there!

Hello! I am an English language teacher here. I work for an institute and and make 30 pesos an hour which is pretty standard. I also have private students which I charge 50 pesos an hour. Upon arrival I emailed a lot of institutes, had some interviews, and then picked which one I wanted to work...

Sorry....I don' t know anyone coming from Recoleta! Please come anyway :)
