CULTURAL INMERSION FOR A WEEK
Teach, Learn, and Serve by joining us on a Cultural Tour in the heart of Colombia!
Every year, TLS works with Idiomas Nativos, SAS, a Colombian English teaching institution, to provide Cultural Tours in Colombia for adventurers like you. During the week long Cultural Tour, you will work with local teachers to provide English lessons to a classroom of eager Colombian students at Idiomas Nativos, SAS. TLS will provide you with a week long schedule so when you're not teaching you will participate in social projects and cultural excursions. TLS will also handle transportation, lodging, and food so you can focus on what you came to do: Teach and grow through cultural immersion. Gain international experience while doing what you love to do! |
