Costa Rica is a personal favorite of IGS staff members and a location we are all too happy to nudge students looking to practice their Spanish. In the capital city of San Jose, previous participants have worked at a language school where they assisted in the classroom and tutored children.

Worked in one of the private schools in san jose as a tutor and teaching staff, teaching English and Spanish. my most delightful part is when we the students did a performance for us. they are so cute and very much participative. very active in sports too. I'm happy I took the plunge and did this internship

Strategic first step before I officially start my law school (hopefully in Harvard) in the next year

I am an aspiring attorney. Law is my ultimate passion and childhood dream, even. Henceforth, I asked the respectable Mr. Adams to look for a legal internship for me, which specifically concerns criminal defense. I am beyond grateful for the IGS staff and mentors that communicated with me. I am now more aware of legal concepts and terms. This is a strategic first step before I officially start my law school (hopefully in Harvard) in the next year.

i and my co-interns are given work on research and digital marketing. we worked with a bunch of interesting people that are not just experts on their fields, but also fun to be with. after our long day, we eat out with officemates. our favorite place is in cocina eclectica in San Jose, capital city. i was there in the winter months of December and so we also participated in their christmas celebrations and exchange gifts. i love the traditions!

    Costa Rica is a personal favorite of IGS staff members and a location we are all too happy to nudge students looking to practice their Spanish. In the capital city of San Jose, previous participants have worked at a language school where they assisted in the classroom and tutored children. One of our law students requested work in a bilingual law office in the downtown area and we secured a terrific litigation attorney for her. In the highlands of Monteverde, past interns have assisted a rainforest education institute that serves visiting school groups. They helped the local staff educate visitors on the dynamics of what makes a cloud forest unique. Our internship program includes a range of activities such as guided night excursions in search of tree-dwelling ocelots (wild cats) and m...
