![]() The course itself was amazing - the teachers were incredible and totally managed to tailor their skills to your need, despite the class size - I am still thoroughly impressed by this, it was so good! Shout out to Kevin, Zaida and Jobeth ✌□□ The home stay was incredible - I feel like I landed the best family in Costa Rica, as did many of my friends - which says a lot - the people you stay with are soooo lovely, welcoming, kind and such beautiful people. Every ridiculous and sensible question was answered professionally and with love and care. Yeni was available to contact during my whole 9 months before starting school here - she is so lovely and I count her as a mate after 8 weeks. I felt safe in the school’s hands after speaking with Robert, probably because he is Welsh to my English, either way Tico Lingo did not let me down! After speaking wit, agreeing fees and paying a deposit with Robert, I felt super comfortable with the process. From the first call with Robert, to the last goodbye with my tico family. I would do it again in a heartbeat, and probably will. I learned a lot of Spanish without even really noticing I was doing it! I spent 3 weeks there and could have easily spent 3 more if I didn’t have my annoying life to get back to. My Professor, Yobeth Calbaleta, was not only very professional and knowledgeable, but also just a lot of fun to talk with. You will keep yourself in good shape by walking, there is so much to see! You can also get a half hour bus ride into the center of San José to see the museums, and there is a tour available every weekend for a bit over $100 us, as well as free yoga and dance classes and a 5 dollar cooking class, all in the early afternoon. The school itself has a great location, within easy walking distance of the house and close to a large market, restaurants, gyms, and not that far to the big fitness themed mall, the Oxígeno. My host family was amazing the entire time, the most wonderful food and conversation. I got picked up promptly at the airport and taken directly to my host families home. This school, for me, checked all of the boxes from beginning to end.
