  • Description

    Enjoy learning one of the world's most widely spoken, and therefore valuable, languages whilst integrating yourself into the daily rhythm of life in Honduras. In one of the country's leading educational centres you will experience the true culture and community life of this enchanting country. Give something back to your host community by combining your Spanish lessons with teaching English. Add a touch of spice to your project by using your spare time to explore the spellbinding landscapes and natural wonders of this fascinating country. Enjoy adventure sports like scuba diving, horseback riding, trekking, relax on the spotless white sand beaches and make friends in your new home.

    * What Will I Be Doing?

    You'll wake up to a morning bird chorus and a delicious Latin American style breakfast. Your mornings are free to explore the many splendours of the Cortes region before returning in the afternoon to begin your language tuition. Taught by an experienced teacher you will get an excellent introduction to this elegant language, picking up on colloquialisms whilst mastering your pronunciation. In class exercises, reading, writing, and grammar will all be covered, ensuring that you grasp the fundamentals before moving on to more complex constructions and subjects as your confidence builds.

    One of the most rewarding things that you can do with your time is teach. You're sure to find enthusiasm, enjoyment, plenty of laughs and a sea of smiling faces that greet you as a teacher. With a flexible attitude, a bit of patience, enthusiasm and a good sense of humour, you're bound to take away a wealth of wonderful experiences and memories for life, and leave a legacy for the future generation to build on.
