Love the kids đź©·
June 28, 2025by: Sofia Reel - United StatesProgram: Working with Kids—Volunteer in Costa Rica!While San Jose itself as a city wasn’t my favorite, the experience with the little kids was one of the most amazing. I loved them all and it was so great being able to be wi the them and learn from them in my time volunteering.
Most eye opening and exciting journey of my life
June 28, 2025by: Nicholas Arthur - United StatesProgram: Working with Kids—Volunteer in Costa Rica!I loved learning about how a country other than my own functions and it was so fun and exciting to be challenged to learn a different language. Working with the kids was amazing and the staff was excellent.
The WHOLE experience
June 27, 2025by: Grant McConnell - EnglandProgram: Spanish Immersion Programs | Learn Spanish in Latin AmericaYenny made learning so much quicker, easier and more enjoyable because she used enthusiastic real-life examples, and even acted out scenes. This helped contextualize learning and improve my understanding. I really learned so much in 10 hours. On top of that, the Spanish immersion with activities like tutoring, tandem conversation, etc. made the whole experience so impactful. Thank you :)

I'd previously volunteered in Cambodia teaching English, and I was keen to head somewhere else and help out. I had previously quit university and was tired of working two jobs...so I booked a ticket to South America.

I want to go to graduate school to pursue a PhD in Romance Languages. I have a degree in Spanish, but I knew I wanted to live abroad, immersed in the language and culture, and really perfect my Spanish skills before beginning such a high-caliber program. Having a degree in teaching ESL already, I knew I could get a job teaching English abroad without going through a TEFL/TESOL Certification program, but I wanted to go through an organization so that I would have a support system in my new home and could ease into life abroad with a group of peers who were doing the same type of thing as I was.

I traveled to many places, but as tourist only. I think I was just ready to take my experiences to a new level, really get to know the country as if I lived there. I traveled to India and China in the past, saw all the touristy places but didn't experience as much of their culture as I would like to. Volunteering in Guatemala was exactly what I was looking for: interaction with locals and living just like one of them.
