BAIN Language Exchange Group

BAIN is starting a Language Exchange Group

Are you interested in practicing your Spanish?  Practicing your English?  Let’s start talking!

We will have two language groups with various levels of proficiency.  A small mixed group of native speakers (English/Spanish) will spend half of the time communicating in one language and half the time in the other.  Activities will be structured to cover all areas of language acquisition — vocabulary, pronunciation and listening comprehension. In addition, the activities will be designed to enable students to discover the “conversation culture”, that is, the way that native speakers of the other culture interact. The class will have a relaxing, fun and flexible structure so that it can be stress-free and enjoyable.

 If interested, or if you have questions about the structure, please contact Solange at smecham25@yahoo.com or Celia at celiacriseo@rauljak.com.ar .

Spend the Morning Outdoors!

“LET’S GO FOR A WALK…”

Come and join us to walk at your own pace, spend some fun time with friends old and new and enjoy the outdoors. Bring yourself, your dog, your children, your friends and join us for a walk, or bring a blanket and some snacks and meet us at the end!
Sunday, May 5 is the kick off. We’ll meet at Cafe Martinez on Av del Libertador 3598 (http://goo.gl/maps/vGTwC). We will then continue to walk around “El Rosedal” on Palermo. We will start near the park entrance closest to the US Embassy Residence, those that wish to skip the walk and enjoy a picnic can set up blankets there.

This is a nice activity for everyone with or without children. See you there!
