Welcome!

The purpose of English in Buenos Aires (EBA) blog is two-fold - to both inform and alert potential customers of English language services available in Argentina's capital city.

Hello, I'm Winn, a professor of English and certified translator and native of the United States. I hail from (south) Florida, the Sunshine State, where many Argentines call home.

Buenos Aires lies at the crosscurrents of the strong demand for English in Argentina. The vibrant "Paris of South America" opens its doors to the world with strong tourist, cultural, and commercial links.

Argentines are well-educated and porteƱos (residents of Buenos Aires) are especially tuned into the world around them. Given English at the moment is the lengua franca, it is therefore important to not only learn but dominate the language.

EBA covers the EFL (English Foreign Language) territory in the Argentine capital as well as life in general here for an American expat. Plus, given my profession as a translator as well, my loyal readers can get a daily sample of the headlines from Argentine papers translated into English.

I invite you to subscribe to EBA. If you are interested in EFL in Buenos Aires, want to learn about life here, sign up today!

If you need to learn English or prepare for the TOEFL or IELTS, need documents translated from Spanish, French or Portuguese into US English, require a specialized English service (writing letters, essays or CVs in English) or are visiting and require a confidential interpreter (Spanish<>English), not only subscribe but contact me directly!

Life abroad is full of unique challenges and rewards. Join me on this excursion!

In Buenos Aires, contact Professor Winn directly for your own English classes at: 1160 461 432 or mrenglish101 (at) gmail.com. Translations via email may also be sent to the gmail account for prompt evaluation.
