Impact 🌎

At Tico Lingo, we strive to minimize our environmental footprint while maximizing our positive contribution to Costa Rica’s ecosystems.

Wicked!

Loved absolutely everything about this course! I have learned more Spanish with Tico Lingo online than I did for six years at school. The best and most effective part was learning from a local which not only worked wonders for my pronunciation challenges :) but also helped me learn about Costa Rican culture. I have finally overcome my fear of speaking Spanish which, according to my teacher Freddie, is a natural part of the language learning journey. I am now really motivated to go to Costa Rica and start using what I have learned..
Muchas gracias!

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I should have done it sooner. I hesitated too long before signing up thinking that online wouldn't be as effective as in class.

Really improving my Spanish!

I would absolutely recommend online Spanish classes with any of the wonderful teachers at Tico Lingo. I have been doing online classes with Tico Lingo for about 3 weeks. My teacher is Freddy Fraiñas. We have been working on preparing me to take my bilingual certification test. We practice grammar, conversation and writing. I am really enjoying my time with Tico Lingo and my Spanish has improved immensely. I wish that I could be in Costa Rica right now, actually taking these classes in person, but this is the next best thing!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
I would recommend studying with the Tico Lingo teachers for multiple weeks to get the most benefit.
