First Day of Classes!
After enjoying a day off to relax and celebrate Argentina's Independence Day, students had their first day of classes today. Before starting, students signed their language pledge where they promised to do their best to only speak in Spanish for the next 4 weeks. Although it will be a challenge, students were already having fun joking and speaking to each other in Spanish. Following class, students were using their skills in the park talking with locals. Everyone was very friendly and happy to answer their questions. Finally, we took a tour of the Ministry of Education and students concluded the tour by painting their home cities and sights they have seen of Buenos Aires.
