On this Putney Student Travel program for students completing grades 9 – 12, combine language immersion and service/volunteer work to maximize your summer experience.

Immerse yourself in Ecuadoran life in a small mountain village. Practice your Spanish each day as you work hand in hand with Ecuadorian friends. Volunteer on meaningful community service initiatives, ranging from volunteer construction projects to running a summer camp for local children to helping farmers harvest crops. 

To further your Spanish, live with a welcoming local family for a one-week homestay. End your program with several days in the Galápagos Islands for outdoor exploration, learning, and continued language practice.
