Each immersion trip focuses on improving your Spanish proficiency. Working hard together, we have more fun than you can imagine with unique adventure-travel experiences. Our immersion programs cost more than a DIY do it yourself trip, and possibly even more than other travel companies. This begs the obvious value question… Why travel on Spanish immersion with Common Ground? Oh, and by they way, all our trip leaders are Spanish teachers as well — we got your back!
DIY trips are possible, but neither convenient nor do you have complete confidence that your plans will become reality. You can dial us up and speak English to us at any time! Btw, our CO number also rings abroad — just in case you need to connect with us down there: Spanish Immersion realities like culture shock, unmet expectations, situational realities can derail you from learning all you can.
Most any program can throw together a host family experience for you, but we take it much beyond that on our Spanish immersion trips. Your host family is invested in you. You will get to know your family and their values through some specially designed interviews. Additionally, you will partner with a local community organization to work on projects.
These projects are in Spanish and make you rub shoulders with everyday people. One common complaint of international volunteering is that the work Americans do abroad is more about them feeling better. This happens with one-off activities that have no long-term longevity. Furthermore, sometimes work is irrelevant to the true needs of the community. Our team of well-seasoned leaders take care to satisfy the highest standards for international volunteering on our immersion trips.
Costa Rica is one of the most beautiful countries in Central America. Costa Rica is a small country replete with beauty and invested in conserving its ecology. In addition to its unmatched beauty, Costa Rica is one of the most stable countries in Central America, and has a long history of welcoming North Americans with hospitality.
Its hospitality is matched by an eager willingness to care for its visitors and ensure their safe travels. Ecuador is also a very stable country to run our Spanish immersion programs in. Not only that, but it is a little less-known to the typical American traveler. Our only requirement of our participants is the willingness to learn Spanish. And our job as immersion program coordinators is to set up the experience to be manageable for the beginner and still challenging for the advanced speaker.
We are not a tour company that happens to provide trips to Costa Rica. We are immersion experts. Proper preparation is key if you want to arrive to your destination ready to soak in all the benefits of Spanish Immersion.
We value every second you have in-country; so you will spend approximately hours in a specifically designed online pre-departure course for your immersion program. I loved every minute of it! Avonne Colebrooke. Marketing Specialist, Bahamas — October In regards to the facilities, staff, and how the operation is put together I would say its beautifully done. Everyone is friendly and makes you feel comfortable, no matter what level of Spanish you are at.
