Presentation

These programs aim to develop expression, oral and written comprehension skills, so that you reach the successive linguistic and communicative levels corresponding to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages ​​(CEFR).

The teaching methodology and contents are defined according to international linguistic skills and competences and therefore, the levels are divided into A1 and A2, basic level, B1 and B2, intermediate, and C1 and C2, advanced, for those who master language exceptionally.

The language courses are divided into regular (7 months), intensive (4 months), specific (two levels of 2 months each). They are all online.

Students, teachers, administrative staff and graduates can consult about the program of scholarships to study languages.

Levels

Access

If I start from scratch:

If you do not have any knowledge of the language, you must select the A1 level option when pre-registering. In this case you will not need to perform a classification test.

If I already have knowledge of the language:

  1. If you have knowledge of the language but do not know exactly what level you have, you should write to us at languages@um.edu.ar, to coordinate your leveling exam. This test is only an indicative test, so during the first two weeks of the course and, if the teacher deems it appropriate, a level change can be made.
  2. If you have taken and passed the language at the UM Language Center, you will be able to automatically access the next level, without having to take the leveling exam. If you have taken it more than two years ago, we recommend that you take the leveling exam.
