My Students: Costa Rica´s Cultural Ambassadors
Service Journal: Volunteer Work in Santa Ana
One of the experiences I am enjoying the most here in Costa Rica is volunteering to teach English at the local library. As I told David Kaufman at Conversa, it feels great to give back to a community which has given me so much. Currently, I have seven wonderful students ranging in ages from 12 to 17. In this post you will getting the opportunity to learn a little about these students. In my mind, each of these second language learners are like myself: cultural ambassadors. As cultural ambassadors our ESL children are a rich source of information about new people and exciting places. I will let the videos of our first cultural ambassadors speak for themselves.
