incredible country. Our volunteer teachers offer free classes to children and/or adults in
rural/impoverished communities, tourism communities, learning centers and public
schools. EVOLC’s aim is to develop students’ English language skills and thus enable
them to completely change their lives by gaining a better education and more
opportunities!

office in Costa Rica’s capital city, San José. Upon finishing orientation, our volunteers will
be taken to their respective teaching communities. Volunteer teachers will live with
welcoming, experienced host families in communities throughout the country during their
volunteer work. They will be responsible for teaching English classes approximately 20
hours/week and have the rest of their time free to plan their lessons and enjoy Costa
Rica!
