We have several volunteering and internship openings for restaurants & hotels like hosting, waiting tables, receptionists, chefs, etc. Inquire in case of wanting to know about another specific restaurant or hotel job.
All the students must speak at least 50% or in an intermediate level of Spanish in order to be accepted, otherwise, they'll have to take a 2 week intensive Spanish course with us or any other school of their choice before participating as volunteers or interns.
In most of the volunteering and internship programs, the students don't need previous experience at all, except for some jobs, so please inquire about those agencies that do require specific skills. Speaking Spanish is a must!
It varies from USD 80 to USD 375.
There's a registration fee when taking Spanish lessons, and depending on the length of weeks taking part of the volunteering/internship the costs will vary. Lodging and food are charged separately.
yes
In most cases salaries are not offered for the volunteers at all. Ask us about those agencies who provide housing and board.
no
We haven't had anyone coming to participate in any of the restaurant and/or hotel volunteering/internship openings yet. Hopefuly, you'll be the first one to join us. We strive to have students from universities to participate in the volunteering/internship programs at the same time that they could study Spanish, we have students that already speak Spanish and therefore, they don't need the lessons, they just come to volunteer.
from 16 and up!

TLALOC's main purpose is to become a leading language school in teaching Spanish as a second language for foreigners as same as bringing volunteers from abroad with the mere purpose of helping those communities who most need it. TLALOC strives to help both, the local and foreign students to learn the language in a highly and effective method, especially Spanish in the way it is spoken in Mexico and English for the Mexican students with a motivated method that is at an affordable price. We also promote mutual cultural experience from Mexico's poorest towns within the state of Morelos. That's why TLALOC offers different volunteering and internship opportunities as a plus so that the participants can help out in making a big difference in the sorrounding poor communities that arise every day in Cuernavaca's City and the state of Morelos, Mexico. All kinds of Donations are always welcome!
