El Invu, Costa Rica
The Costa Rica site was started in 2003 by Mary Scholl with support from her late husband. We are located in a small town in rural Costa Rica about 2.5 hours from the SJO airport. The main trainers are Roger Ramirez, Laura Zalazar, Nicolas Tamburini and Matt Schaefer with some help from Amanda Rossi. Over the years we have run 75 TESOL Certificate Courses at our site and have trained a lot of trainers! We are currently running a pilot right for a certificate for teaching English to young learners. We also have other courses for teacher development and work on projects funded mostly by the US State Department in Costa Rica, Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. You can see our most recent video below. We are on Facebook, twitter and instagram as well!
