International Volunteer HQ provide gap year volunteer programs in Guatemala and Central America and help to learn Spanish! IVHQ recommend that all gap year volunteers regardless of their Spanish language ability (unless they are extremely fluent), take advantage of the very affordable Spanish lessons offered exclusively to IVHQ volunteers by program staff in Guatemala.
Past volunteer feedback has shown IVHQ that volunteers feel they can contribute far more with some Spanish ability. Spanish is NOT a prerequisite for IVHQ's Guatemala gap year volunteer program, however on certain placements (such as medical placements) the level of work a volunteer can do will be restricted with limited Spanish. Local staff in Guatemala offer hugely discounted Spanish lessons to volunteers and a wide variety of options (one on one learning, group classes and a local student language exchange). More details on these options are provided when a volunteer registers.
