"I had a great experience with SEPA and I would definitely recommend it to others. SEPA helped me to learn about the environment by setting up an interview with a man from MINAE and by showing me a video on the national parks. After watching this with my professor, we discussed the relevant terms and vocabulary in Spanish for example, endangered species like the sea turtles and scarlet macaws.
I stayed with a woman and her grandson, and another student from Costa Rica, was living with us too. My Costa Rican family was extremely accommodating and generous. I was able to practice Spanish all the time with them on top of the 4 hours of Spanish lessons a day. The classes were very relaxed and my teacher and I understood each other well. My Spanish improved a lot.
The office and classroom at SEPA were very comfortable and pleasant. There are a lot of beautiful artifacts in the building and a lovely garden.
Wilbure and Nidia were very helpful and understanding. They are concerned and knowledgeable about the environment of Costa Rica. They offer many trips to explore natural wonders for example, beaches, hot springs and National Parks.
San Isidro is a pretty modern city with all the resources and luxuries you could need. It is a very walk able city and a field safe there.
Wilbure and Nidia cater to your interests. I wanted to teach English so, they set me up to help at an elementary school and a university.
I came here to study so that I would be able to say, "I speak Spanish" with more confidence, and to take part in a different culture. I have been able to do that and more."
