For four hours every weekday, we’ll work with native-speaker instructors in small, private classes to improve our Spanish. Outside of class, students will have opportunities for Spanish conversation both in our service work and through daily interactions with Costa Ricans. A week-long homestay offers a superb setting where students experience firsthand the culture and family life of Costa Rica.
Language & Service Costa Rica: Three Weeks (for grades 7-9) is based in picturesque San Isidro de el General. We’ll serve the community by working alongside local students in our service projects. Through this service work, we’ll assist with trail maintenance and wildlife conservation in the lush rainforests of the Fudebiol Reserve. On our weekend travel, we’ll raft the Pacuare River, explore the beautiful Marino Ballena National Park and visit an indigenous community.
On Language & Service Costa Rica: Four Weeks (for grades 9-12), students will live, learn and serve in the rural town of Heredia, the cloud forests of Monteverde, the unspoiled beaches of Playa Flamingo, and the North Carribean town of Sarapiqui. We will partner with local organizations to address the needs of each community that we visit. On our weekends, we’ll explore Arenal, Costa Rica’s most active volcano, and raft the Pacuare River. L&S Costa Rica offers an unbeatable combination of language study, service, cultural engagement and active exploration in a country of great natural beauty. Less
