I was beyond nervous for this experience, but it has given me the confidence I needed in my Spanish skills!
My teacher at Lapa Verde was amazing! Olma made us feel confident in our Spanish skills! Constantly she was providing us with material that would be beneficial in the classroom!
Also, I had an amazing host family! They loved showing us all the amazing things that Costa Rica has to offer!
