Amerispan- Language Study in Monteverde
Costa Rica
Term: Throughout the year
Dates: New classes begin each month
Description:
Monteverde is a small community located in the Tilaran mountain range. The community was founded by North American Quakers in the 1950's. Primarily a community of dairy farmers, the Quakers began conservation efforts of the cloud forest to protect the watershed. Today, the Monteverde Cloud Forest Preserve covers 10,500 hectares and receives thousands of visitors each year, making eco-tourism a big industry in this area. Despite the number of tourists, Monteverde and the adjoining town of Santa Elena (only 3 kilometers away) still maintain a small town community and a life that goes on outside the busy tourism industry. This program is ideal for nature lovers. Program in Monteverde (included in tuition): - 4 hours daily instruction (20 hrs/week)
- Small group instruction (max 4)
- Private room with host family
- Breakfast and dinner daily
- Laundry service
- Airport pick-up in San Jose
- Travel insurance & assistance
- 'In-Touch' message service
- AmeriSpan Discount Card
- Hotel for first Saturday night
- 2-3 organized activities per week
Highlights:
Known as the Switzerland of Central America, Costa Rica has an abundance of natural beauty and is populated by a friendly, well-educated people. Costa Rica has obtained the highest standard of living in Central America by embracing democracy and disbanding its army. This small country is a paradise for nature lovers with many national parks, jungles, volcanoes, beaches and more rivers and water per square mile than any other country in the world, excluding New Zealand. However, the small pre-Colombian Indigenous population was wiped out by diseases brought to the new world by the conquistadors.

AmeriSpan Study Abroad's Mission Statement: Our mantra is "Every Language, Every Culture, Everywhere." AmeriSpan Study Abroad has over 15 years experience and over 30,000 past participants. Our staff has three passions: language, culture, and travel. Individually and as a group, we have accumulated experiences and knowledge related to these passions. AmeriSpan's staff has traveled to more than 65 countries, every continent except Antarctica, speak 10 languages, and we are happy to share this enormous amount of relevant knowledge with you. Every staff member has studied and/or lived abroad for extended periods of time. We are neither a language school nor a travel agent, we're a hybrid of the two: a language travel organization. AmeriSpan has evaluated hundreds of schools, host families and destinations to determine which programs to offer, and our independence allows us to give you unbiased evaluations of these programs.
Our pledge to our participants is to make going abroad 'worry-free'. There is no risk in choosing an AmeriSpan program because you'll get the best program, best price and can cancel for any reason and get a full refund on every dollar we have received for your program.
Year Founded: 1993
