My experience in the school was amazing. So much so I came back after a quick trip home. The flexible teaching schedule allows for plenty of time to explore the city, enjoy the beach, or relax by the pool. The out of class excursions with the students were a lot of fun and even was able to take advantage of the opportunity to shoot commercial ads for the school. Weekends and holidays we visited different towns, beaches and cultural sites. The students/staff create an environment that made everyday better than the next and with something to always look forward to!

Wow, this experience has been absolutely incredible! I got the pleasure of stay here for 2 months, I could not recommend volunteering here more. The host and staff at the school have been extremely welcoming and just amazing to work with. The school/house is very nice and well maintained. The rooms are private and pretty big and there is also a pool out back. The host was is a great guy. He always willing to show me around, if i wanted to do something like go to the beach or go to a nice restaurant he was always happy to take me. I will definitely be volunteering here again!

I was at Inglés Rápido from January 25th through February 16th, 2024. Robin and all the teachers were very welcoming and supportive. You have a private bedroom and bathroom with a full kitchen upstairs. The school is very well organized and the work consisted of being available for the students for 4 hours per day Monday - Friday. A teacher refers a student to you when he/she is ready, tells you what lesson they are on, and you have a book that tells you exactly what to review with them. The students too were great to work with. I'll miss not seeing them progress further.

Thank you for all your help with the students, Michael was very helpful with the English practice with the students of different levels and made them feel very comfortable and enthusiastic, I hope you can visit us again in the future, I hope everything goes well.

SALC provided a fulfilling experience as I enjoyed working with the students and embraced their unique & affective approach. Attending student events and a graduation ceremony added depth to my engagement. The agreed to hours were productive, balanced, and well respected. Exploring local restaurants with traditional food enriched my cultural experience. Robbie and Diego were incredibly accommodating, ensuring my time in Manta was maximized and making my overall experience with SALC truly rewarding. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to work with such a wonderful and caring staff!
