This week in the Peace Corps: Teaching about language, leadership and life

Many Peace Corps Volunteers (PCVs) here in Costa Rica spend a large chunk of their time in schools. PCVs lead all kinds of activities depending on the sector they work in: youth development, community economic development, or English. From leadership workshops, to computer classes and English classes, Peace Corps Volunteers never have a dull moment working with kids.


The Peace Corps photo series in The Tico Times Costa Rica Changemakers section is sponsored by the Costa Rica USA Foundation for Cooperation (CRUSA), a proud financial supporter of Peace Corps Volunteer projects nationwide.

Volunteers’ last names and community names are withheld from these publications, per Peace Corps policy.
