I am really enjoying teaching English
by: Jacob SwirskyProgram: Teach English in Colombia: With Salsa and Spanish ClassesAs a volunteer teacher at Connections, I am really enjoying teaching English to a class of enthusiastic and inspiring students. With activities at the weekend you get the opportunity to explore the amazing landscape outside of the city in ways only a local can. The Spanish classes each week are a great resource to improve your Spanish in a short space of time, and when living in Ibague, you'll need it!
