The Internship/Volunteer Abroad Programs provide an unparalleled opportunity to practice Spanish in real-life situations and get to know the local cultures and people on a deeper level. The required first month of classes is designed for you to feel comfortable with the language and culture that surrounds you. Living with a host family, learning to communicate in Spanish and getting to know your new community makes the volunteer project one month later all the more enjoyable and rewarding.
This program is available all year round for every Spanish level.
The Volunteer Program includes a shared room in a traditional homestay, two meals/day, airport pick-up, orientation, project management, and 4 hours/day of work Monday-Friday. Includes 2 classes/day group Spanish classes for the first 4 weeks.
Listening, Speaking, Pronunciation, Reading, Writing, Vocabulary, Grammar and Activities

It may be known as the “old city of Guatemala”, but during your Spanish courses in Antigua, you will get to know the new parts of this city just as well. The language school here is situated right in the city centre, so you will be able to explore for yourself all of the shops, restaurants, cafes, bars, and interesting sites such as the Cathedral right nearby. The school itself is a colonial home, giving you a mixture of the old world and the new with many amenities. And with Antigua being a relatively small city you will be able to easily access everything that you could need as a student.
There are several programs on offer here, and for more information, you can visit the links provided to find the course pages with detailed explanations of how they work. Each one is calculated to suit all types of learners with interesting tuition styles and fun lessons that will keep you motivated and entertained, with excursions outside of class to fill your time in visiting worthwhile places.
The intensive course offered here follows the same syllabus as that offered at every other existing Enforex school, so you can be sure that it is of the highest quality standard. It is perfectly pitched to make sure that you have a great balance of study and free time, optimizing both the amount that you can learn in class and how much relaxation you can find outside of the classroom.
If you want to do more learning within a shorter space of time, you can opt to take the super intensive course (this option is not always available), which adds an extra ten lessons per week. This is great for those who can only spare one or two weeks out of their busy schedules, as it means that you reach a better standard of language quicker than you would with the intensive course. You may find that you do not manage to explore the excursions very much, but there will still be time to relax and enjoy the holiday element of your stay in full.
You can also take private lessons if learning in a group does not appeal to you. The standard private course gives you twenty lessons per week. This can be a great chance for one to one tuition of an impressive standard.
The nationality and age mix at Enforex: Antigua varies over different time periods, courses and levels.

Homestays are carefully selected and offer students the opportunity to learn more about the local culture in a comfortable setting while studying Spanish in Antigua. These homes are often between 20 - 30 minutes away from the school by public transport. Families usually offer affordable meal plans that allow you to sample the local cuisine. If you have special requests or diet restrictions (because of religion or health reasons), please let us know in advance. Your housing starts on the Sunday before your first day of class and ends on the Saturday after your last day of class, unless otherwise noted. Learn more about homestay housing
