Vamos organized this event and not only I met great people, but got to practise a lot of spanish and even my french! great oportunity to let loose and enjoy a great time while practising.

5.00I signed up for Café Duolingo because I wanted a more relaxed, informal way to practice Spanish since I don’t speak much yet and it was the best idea I could have had! We tried some delicious food, laughed, chatted, and learned in a fun, interactive setting. The academy is right in the city center, making it even more enjoyable. Perfect for beginners like me and a great way to meet new people.
Fun and relaxed way to practice Spanish

5.00I went to the Duolingo Café at Vamos Academy while visiting Buenos Aires and honestly had the best time. It was super chill, everyone was really friendly, and it helped me and my partner practice our Spanish in a fun, easy way. It didn’t feel like a class more like hanging out and learning at the same time. Totally recommend it if you’re in the city!
