“Take part in an exciting teaching project in Costa Rica, where you’ll be integrated into the local community and learn to love the people, beaches, rainforests, and wildlife of this magical destination.”

Throw yourself in at the deep end and become immersed in Costa Rican culture teaching English at local schools. You’ll be pitching in wherever you’re most useful - depending on how long you stay for, you might be asked to assist in lessons, help children who are struggling or even plan lessons for your own small group.

After school you can help with extra-curricular activities like football or assist with the English classes for adults, run in the evening. The school closes at weekends, leaving you plenty of time for exploring further afield and checking out the bars, restaurants and clubs of Puerto Jimenez.
