Teaching English in Costa Rica from US$285
Company : International Volunteer HQ (IVHQ)
Activities : Gap year / Education Programmes / Teaching / Language Projects / Charity
Countries : Costa Rica
Location : San Jose
Info
Teaching English to low-income communities in San Jose and surrounding areas is a rewarding project.
Children, teenagers and young adults are very excited to practice their pronunciation and conversation skills with native speakers. Costa Rica is increasingly becoming the tourism capital of Central America, meaning English is a prerequisite for all people looking to make a career in the tourism industry and get above the poverty line. Volunteers will work in local schools, orphanages and community centers. Work varies but generally consists of providing tutoring to local students, setting up small workshops, assisting local teachers and organizing educational games and activities. NB Volunteers DO NOT need to be a qualified or experienced teacher.
