"Hola Charley, What a beautiful country Costa Rica is! I was amazed by all
that I saw and did while I was there. It was a great experience! As for feedback
on certain things: The family [homestay] in Quepos was great. They had great
accommodations in that they were private and very clean. The family was very
friendly and helpful. The school in Manuel Antonio was exceptional. What
a beautiful location! The staff was terrific....Overall, I had a wonderful
time and apprectiate all the arrangements that you made for me. I liked the
country so much that my hope is to be able to move over there this summer!
(I actually would settle up in the Arenal area as that is where I have some
friends.) Muchas gracias!" Pat Mulhanney, Massachusetts, February 2006
(Excerpt from Pat's March '06 course
evaluation)
"Charley, now
that I am back from Costa Rica, I want to Thank You for your good choice
of school. COSI was all I hoped for and more. The administration personnel
and teachers were great and helped me a lot. Again, Charley, Thanks.

SUMMER IMMERSION PROGRAM LINK
The Costa Rica Spanish Institute (COSI) is a total
immersion Spanish language school with schools in both San José, Costa
Rica and at the beach at Playa Manuel Antonio near Quepos, Costa Rica, North
of Panama and Domincal and south of Jaco and Puntarenas on the Pacific Coast
of Costa Rica. COSI offers intensive Spanish language classes beginning each
week all year around at both campuses and our Teen Summer Spanish Program
between mid June and mid August. We accommodate families througout
the year.
Founded in 1994, COSI strives
to be the best language immersion school in Latin America by offering
high-quality, personalized instruction at a reasonable price. In spite of
being a relatively new language institute, we have quickly developed an excellent
reputation for providing personalized attention in a friendly atmosphere
and with a highly professional staff.
We offer Spanish language
immersion classes in San José, the capital of Costa Rica, and at Manuel
Antonio National Eco-Tourism Park (beach and rain forest) near Quepos
on the Pacific Coast south of Jaco.
We will pick you up at the
airport and arrange for your stay while in Costa Rica, either with a Costa
Rican host family, in an apartment or in a hotel. Yes, there is surfing and
other water sports available in the Manuel Antonio/Quepos!
Students typically arrive one to three days ahead of time and are picked
up by the school at the airport and taken directly to their homestay family
or any other accommodation that we have arranged. Most flights from the US
arrive in the evenings about 9:30pm. Thus, students heading for the Manuel
Antonio beach location will stay the night in the San José area and
we will arrange your stay there. Class material is arranged in one week modules
which allows us to begin new groups EVERY Monday throughout the year. Students
can arrange studies so that they are able to study both at our beach and
inland locations.
Students arrive early at
the school on Monday for an informal placement interview and are placed at
their appropriate level. We have both small group and individual classes
or you can mix these. Classes are from 8-12 in the mornings, with mixed
group/individual options having group in the morning followed by two hours
or more of private instruction in the afternoon. Pricing includes airport
pick-up, materials and snacks of bread, fresh fruit, coffee and juice
on campus. Your family will help you with getting to campus the first day
of class. The homestays are with middle class Costa Ricans or "Ticos" as
they call themselves.. They have hot water, etc., and include laundry service.
If you are vegetarian, diabetic or require other special diets, just note
this in the Comments section of the registration form online.
Our Summer Teen Program
is self-contained. More information noted on this below. Children's classes
are usually smaller and include instruction with teachers specialized in
working with children employing shorter time frames and different activities
(songs, arts/crafts and more) in these classes.
At COSI, there are many
opportunities to learn outside of the classroom, especially when you join
in cultural activities or go on tours with special COSI student discounts.
There are usually 2-3 weekday afternoon activities that range from free to
low cost and may include dance classes, short afternoon visits to area venues
and more.
We are especially excited
about our chaperoned
summer
program for teenagers. Families can send their teens for Spanish
language immersion with confidence in our well supervised program. This program
is actually in the Pueblito of San Francisco in the countryside away
from San José, near Heredia. This is an active program with morning,
afternoon and evening activities as well as weekend excursions. Some teens
travel with there families and all participate in the intensive language
programs. Other teens travel on their own to Costa Rica. Some travel with
teachers to study here. We offer incentives for teachers bringing teens to
our summer teen program. This program combines intensive Spanish language
studies with a variety of weekday activities, weekend excursions (Tabacon,
Arenal Volcano, La Fortuna, cloud forest eco-tourism parks, adventure sports),
and a homestay with a Costa Rican family.
Please contact AVENTURAS regarding the above programs or for Intensive
Spanish Language Immersion School Programs in Costa Rica.
