Our philosophy
Why Esparza
Language &
Community
We offer not just language classes but a transformative experience.
A family-run center, part of a solidary community
As a family-run language center, we take pride in being part of a solidary Esparzana community. We bridge our international students and our community through activities that allow both groups to learn and grow.
We support community organizations, projects, and local entrepreneurship initiatives through collaborations and volunteer work. We believe in a sustainable model that connects students with the community so they can both thrive.
01
Family-run

Activities that bring international students and neighbours together, so both groups learn and grow.
03

04
A sustainable model
Students connected with the community just so they can both thrive — season after season.
Life in a real Costa Rican town
Our students have the opportunity to live in a REAL Costa Rican town while actively participating in community projects and initiatives.
As a Esparza Language student you will not only significantly improve your Spanish language skills but will get to know the community and truly become part of it.
At the table
Spanish learned where it is actually spoken
Meals with a host family, conversations at the feria, an afternoon on a community project. The classroom is one hour of your day — the town is the rest of it.
