Spanish Tutors
As
part of our volunteer program, we work with various community
teachers to train our volunteers in Spanish. Teachers work very
flexible hours and are used to coodinating classes with volunteer
activities. Also, classes are scheduled and paid for by the
hour. Currently private classes are Q25 o $3 per hour.
The majority of volunteers take advantage of the lessons during
their stay, and some volunteers spend their first weeks focusing on
Spanish taking 4 hours a day. Short term travellers who are
interested in participating in our project and also want to take
lessons are more than welcome.
