Volunteer & Study

Descrizione del corso

This course combines volunteering with Spanish group classes. Volunteers usually work 3-4 hours per day in the morning and take 2 hours of Spanish in the afternoon. Participants can choose the type of project among the following:

- Working with kids
- Teaching English
- Medical/Healthcare
- Construction
- Animal Care

No Spanish knowledge is required to participate. Accommodation in a host family with a shared room and 2 meals/day (breakfast and dinner) is included in the program fee.
This program is designed for Spanish learners looking for an intensive language-learning opportunity and cultural immersion while working in a developing country and giving back to the global community. Throughout your language training, the teacher will continuously assess your ability in the four language skills – Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing; and the four language systems – Grammar, Vocabulary, Phonology, and Function. Textbooks and materials are all included in course prices, and all of the teachers are experienced native Spanish instructors – either certified in teaching Spanish as a foreign language or with their Bachelors and/or Masters in Education. We also have a free Tandem Conversation Program offering free conversation practice with local English students to supplement your regular classes.
