FAQs
What level of Spanish do I need to participate?
None! Or, you could improve your skills. The local language schools have options for a focus on conversational language or learning areas of your choice. As part of the program, you’ll complete a brief, informal placement exam and have a program orientation upon arrival.
When can I take classes?
You’ll have access to the school 7 days a week, but many people opt to learn Monday-Friday. At the schools you’ll have comfortable areas to study, community of students, friendly staff, and social activities.
Where will I be staying?
Choose from host families, hotels, or hostels.
What type of transport will I be using?
For each location, a program representative will meet you at the airport and accompany you to your host family home or lodging.
What can I do when I am not in classes?
It is up to you how to use free time, but the team is there to support! From local hikes, visiting wildlife sanctuaries, going to the beach, and exploring towns – you can take in the beautiful, rugged nature and warm, welcoming culture that Costa Rica is famous for. Book weekend getaways with help from the team, and connect with locals and fellow global travelers in the process!
