Teaching English In Rural School

Teaching English Costa RicaPoor, rural children are falling behind their rich counterparts in the cities because the schools are in bad shape physically, there isn't enough space to teach to all of the children, and there aren't enough qualified teachers or enough teachers in general to attend to all of the subjects and students. Rustic Volunteer Travel’s volunteer/travel projects in teaching English offer volunteers ample opportunity to explore the day-to-day life in Costa Rica while helping young students improve their English skills. Volunteers working in this English-teaching project can make a meaningful contribution in the lives of rural children helping them attain a better future as well as helping them to compete and participate in the global market.
