About Program

Córdoba is the second largest city in the country. Its Jesuit heritage and its strong Spanish vividness result in a fascinating blend of past and modernity.

Tingua Volunteers' will have the opportunity to work alongside healthcare professionals.

You will be able to enhance their global perspective on medicine by exchanging knowledge in a cross-cultural context. The interaction with the local health professionals create new emerging bonds of trust between doctors and volunteers; thus, the hectic activity developed in a busy hospital encourages an enriching exchange between both the local staff and proactive foreign volunteers. If you aspire to a medical profession, we also offer medical volunteer opportunities for pre med, pre health and pre nursing students. Even without much experience, many volunteers may be able to help and to learn practicing.

Great Experience

I stayed in Cordoba for 3 months and did a two-month medical internship via Tingua Experience.
I felt really comfortable and had a great time working at the hospital.
The residence I stayed in was great, with many people from all kinds of countries, who were really open and friendly. It was located in the city centre, really close to the hospital, Cordobas night life and to the Spanish School.
The Spanish School had a great atmosphere and I quickly met many new friends.
On the weekends we went on many trips, many of them organised by Tingua.
I had a wonderful time and was really happy with Tingua Experience.
I would recommend it to anyone who wants to earn medical experience, to meet locals and new friends from all over the world, and learn the Spanish language.

Medical Internship

I really enjoyed my time in Cordoba and my internship.
I had a nice host family and a lot of freedom to go on adventures on the weekend.
The internship was very interesting and so different to the one I did in Germany. I've learned a lot and experienced things I would not have the change to experience in Germany.

I met so many nice people and went on a lot of fun weekend adventures.
Some adventures were also offered to us and we didn't have to do the planing or anything. They were also very cheap.

The people who took care of the program were so nice and interested in us and that we enjoy our stay. We could connect with them all the time to ask something or if we needed any help.

All in all I would recommend this to everybody who is interested in medicine and also open-minded and willing to meet new people, go on adventures but who is also not afraid to work hard and experience the hospital live to it's foulest.
