Spanish Classes at YokoVillage!
And free English classes for the local community in need.
Many of us at YokoVillage want to improve our spanish skills, or begin to learn spanish, in order to be able to live more independently, communicate with the locals & get to know the community, and navigate life in Costa Rica with ease.
We are excited to announce that we have created a joint venture with one of the largest language schools in the world, Live Lingua. Those of us who have lived here will confirm that the best way to learn to speak Spanish is by simply practicing with a native speaker. That’s where Live Lingua comes in, where you can learn to speak in a group setting with a native speaker, or even benefit from one-on-one classes, all virtually.
As part of our partnership, Live Lingua is offering a discount on language classes, and, if we get enough individuals from our community signed up, we can do a custom class exclusive to YokoMembers! The best part? We pay it forward by offering free English classes to the local community in Santa Teresa.
Yoko Family let’s get fluent together! For details, please message our Language Program Coordinator here.
