Payment and Beginning of classes at ÍBERO Spanish School

IMPORTANT: To register in our Spanish courses, all we need for you is to fill in the ONLINE REGISTRATION FORM. This is a free, fast and secure means of reserving your class spot. You can pay for your program in US dollars or the equivalent in Argentinian pesos before starting with your program or upon arrival, the first day of lessons.

Requirements to be a Spanish language student at ÍBERO:

- To have your visa ready to travel to Argentina and other important documents necessary for a safe stay here in Buenos Aires.

- To respect Íbero Spanish school’s rules and code of ethics between fellow students, teachers and staff.

-  To reserve a class spot (at least 24 hours before the course starts) and accommodation, if applicable, (at least 72 hours before starting with your program).

- To start and end the desired Spanish program on the stated dates confirmed by the student either in the written form or online form.

- To complete the Spanish Level Test. We will inform you on this procedure when we send you the Program confirmation via email, after you have completed our online registration form.

- To complete the level test at least 72 hours before starting with your Spanish course. If you consider yourself to be an absolute beginner, there is no need to complete our level test. Please write it as a comment when filling out our online form.

- To pay for the program before starting it or on the first day of classes. Discounted programs are valid only when payment is done before arriving to Buenos Aires or upon arrival on the first or second day of classes, otherwise we will apply our regular rates.

 

IMPORTANT: Filling out the ONLINE REGISTRATION FORM means that you have already signed up for the Spanish Course. If you wish to cancel the reservation, please do it at least 7 days before starting with your program.

Three easy steps to start your Spanish program here at ÍBERO

1-      Complete our ONLINE REGISTRATION FORM. No prior payment required.

3-      Payment for the program can be done by wire transfer or on the first day of classes.

 

Payment

IMPORTANT: Once registered online, the student must take into account that:

- He/she should be in our offices, at least half an hour before the beginning of the course.
- In case of changing the start date of the course, the student must inform it to our offices as soon as possible.

- If the student wants to switch programs (i.e.: 20 hour per week group lessons to 10 hour per week private lessons) he/she will have to pay a small fee for covering an organizational processing fee.

- The school has a non refund policy once the student has decided to study at the school on the dates previously mentioned in one or both of the forms.

- If the student thinks that he/she has a certain level of Spanish and the assigned teacher for the course disagrees, he/she will only respond to the assessment of his/her assigned teacher.

- The school is not responsible for any external damages/ liabilities the student may suffer outside of the school premises.

Payment can be done in two ways:

1- Wire the cost of your program into the school bank account. Please ask the school for bank details: courses@iberospanish.com

2- The first day of arrival you can pay in American Express Travelers’ cheques or cash, pesos or American dollars.

Airport pick up

Airport pick up costs 45 USD. It is still valid if the flight is delayed, etc.  This is a much safer option to arrive in Buenos Aires given the fact that the pick up is carried out by the school driver, who will take you safely to your destination.

Discounts

You can pay for your Spanish program in one payment or weekly.
If you choose to pay per week, it is more expensive but more flexible, if you choose to make a one time payment, you benefit from long term or crazy discounts. Please ask.

Program Changes

If you choose to extend your program, please talk with the school director in advance. This is important for class and accommodation scheduling.
If you choose to change a part or your entire scheduled program, we will refigure your invoice and you will be charged a small processing fee.

Refunds
No refunds are made by the school once classes have started.

Cancellation of Spanish Program by Íbero School

If the school has to cancel a course before the start date, the full amount received will be refunded.

Group Formation

Group courses have a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 7 students. Semi private classes have always 2 students.
Length of Spanish levels

Each class hour has 55 minutes. Each one of our 8 different levels has a syllabus to be completed in 60 hours time (to be completed in a three week cycle or two weeks done very intensively in a private immersion course).

Íbero Placement Test

We have a very organized placement system. Once you have registered for a Spanish course with us, we will send you by email the Íbero Spanish School placement test. Otherwise, if you are already here in Buenos Aires you can take it immediately at our facilities.

Our Academic Coordinator will establish the specific level of Spanish knowledge the student has. After that, the student will be placed in the correct level.


Final Examination

Once the student has completed the Spanish level (We have 8 levels of Spanish), he/she takes a final examination, and obtains a diploma that is certified by Íbero Spanish Argentina.
