We are happy to organize private or group Spanish classes for you – before you begin your volunteer project.
Accommodation, Food, and Transport
While staying at the language school, you’ll be living at a host family around San Isidro del General. All of the host families have years of experience hosting students, and they’re very happy to have you there. You will commute to class by bus normally, since San Isidro is a bigger city and distances are a little further and not walkable (note that bus fares are very cheap, less than $0.50, and are not included in the project fees).
