About Program
Costa Rica is a great place to teach in Central America. It has lots of teaching opportunities, and living there is not too expensive. Even though the salaries for teaching English may not be very high, Costa Rica is one of the best places to teach without needing a degree. The requisites are simple: proficiency in native English, possession of a TEFL certificate, and a spirit of adventure.
But what makes Costa Rica even more awesome for teaching is not just the jobs. The weather is always warm, there are nice beaches, green rainforests, and the people, called "Ticos," are very friendly. So, teaching in Costa Rica is not just about work, but also about enjoying the beautiful surroundings and the friendly culture.
