WELCOME, EXPLORER
Ready to set off
Hey there! I’m Matías, creator of Venture Out and “Traé Alfajores,” and a certified Spanish teacher from International House Buenos Aires.
I’m here, ready to help you on your journey to learn Spanish, wherever you are right now.
Over the past few years, I’ve accompanied over 100 students from around the world as we explored Rioplatense Spanish together. Most of them had a personal reason: a partner, family, friends, coworkers. Some had fallen in love with the Argentinian accent and expressions. Others were already living in Buenos Aires but didn’t quite feel comfortable with the language.
You know what happened?
They reached out, we met, and we started walking the path together. Before long, the voseo, the yeísmo, and the local idioms weren’t so obscure anymore. They started gaining confidence, seizing opportunities to use the language instead of avoiding them. Having fun in social situations instead of getting nervous.
For me, the recipe is simple: the only way to learn a language is to speak it. That’s why my teaching method is founded on the importance of creating a real connection between us. If we connect on a human level, we’ve already won.
There’s nothing more powerful than the synergy of two people who trust each other. Our goal is to co-create a learning space where you can enjoy the process without unnecessary suffering. Nobody was born knowing!
Of course, we talk about grammar when necessary, but what matters most to me is giving you authentic tools to use the language naturally and effectively.
If you’ve made it this far and feel like we’re on the same page, you’re ready to take the step.
I’ll be waiting!

Are you looking for a guide to join you in your journey?
There’s no better feeling than that you experience when you find the right person.
We all know that.
We all want that.
I don’t know what brought you here—maybe my podcast, my YouTube channel, or just Google doing its thing.
But I’m guessing you’re into Spanish. Argentinian Spanish, to be precise.
Here’s the deal:
I’m not going to sell you language-learning fantasies.
Learning Spanish takes time, money, and real commitment.
(I know the language well enough to know there are no shortcuts.)
But here’s what I can promise: you won’t be alone.
I’ve guided 100+ students through this exact journey. Most started lost. All left speaking.
If you’re willing to invest in yourself and to trust in me, we’ve got a deal:
You’ll be supporting a small business, not a corporate octopus
You’ll get honest guidance from someone who actually gets the Argentinian vibe
You’ll help me pay for my drum lessons (and food, but mostly drums)
You’ll be part of why my wife and son put up with the noise when I’m not teaching
You’ll help me, and I’ll help you.
And, hopefully, we’ll both get that feeling.
Whether you are already learning Spanish or just getting started, I’m here!
