Here is what people think of our Adult Spanish Immersion Trip:
I’m interested in doing 6 weeks in CR with my husband and 2 kids. What would be the cost for a family?
I am interested in courses for 2 weeks
Hi Michelle, that’s great news! Go ahead and reserve a spot, with no obligation, to learn more!
Good morning.
Receive our sincere greetings from Africa Kenya hoping that you’re all doing well with the entire office. We’re an organisation based in Kenya looking for short courses in Costa Rica January 2024,are we qualified to participate.
Hi Arnold, yes of course. I’ll email separately and we can begin planning… time is short if you’re hoping to travel in January!
Do you have any recommendations for an airline to travel to Costa Rica? I am not finding reasonably priced airfare at all. The cheapest so far has been $802.00 arriving at SJO at 1 a.m. and many many hours of travel. Yikes!
Hi Rory. Am I reading it correctly that the group has to come up with a volunteer project in the weeks before traveling? Also, I know it depends on the individual, but is it reasonable to expect to be able to carry on a basic conversation at a market, restaurant, workplace back home after only 4-6 weeks when my current fluency doesn’t extend much beyond hola and cerveza?
Hey Larry, yes we’ll be collaborating with our community partners before the trip begins and sharing some volunteer project possibilities with you. You have some time to outline your project before you travel and while we’re on the ground working together.
And yes, 4-6 weeks is plenty of time for a beginner to gain basic conversational skills. You’ll be surprised at how much you walk away with after that much time abroad!
Hello Rory: I am thinking about a week of immersion with one of my (adult) granddaughters. Maybe two weekends with holiday activities and the week of instruction in between.
Thanks so much for the Medical Spanish just ending!
Looking forward to going back to the start and reviewing to enhance the learning.
It is already helping me every week in the clinic because translagtors are still scarce because of the pandemic and the big majority of patients speak no English.
Hey Mark, I just saw your registration come through yesterday… yay! Can’t wait to work with you again face to face :). I’ll email with details about weekends with your granddaughter. Cheers,
Hola Rory,
Acabo de ver su video acerca de los usos de por y para, y ahora quiero viajar a Costa Rica!
Favor de enviarme el horario de los viajes durante el verano ’21.
Muchas gracias,
Julia Blair

Hola Julia, sí con mucho gusto :). Los programas este verano empiezan el sábado 26 de junio. También puedes empezar el 3 de julio si prefieres. Aquí están las fechas específicas.
Please send information about CR 2021 summer immersion.
Carla Nelson
Sure Carla, I’ll email you and we can set up a time to chat.
I am interested in attending your adult Spanish immersion program. I am interested in the Costa Rica Program and possibly the Ecuador/Costa Rica combo program.
Please send me updated info.
Thank you,
Ellen Pugh
Awesome Ellen! We would love to work with you! We are planning Summer ’21 travel in Costa Rica, but not Ecuador this year. We’ll send updated dates in February. Thanks,
