5 Reasons to Teach English in Costa Rica

Great weather! Being so close to the equator, there is no such thing as winter in Costa Rica. For this reason, hundreds of native English speakers from Canada, the US, and the UK move to the peaceful Central American nation every year.

Safe and Peaceful! Costa Rica is most often referred to as the ‘Switzerland of the Americas’. This peaceful and laid-back country has a stable government and no riots or political uprisings.

Well connected expat community! Many of the well-known towns have a solid expat network to rely on with weekly social gatherings and support among one another to acclimatize to life in Costa Rica.

A well-protected environment! 25% of Costa Rica’s forests and biodiversity are permanently protected by the government. This gives you the opportunity to live and explore one of the most biodiverse places in the world and have it at your doorstep!

A slower pace of life! Looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life? Look no further than this slowed-down culture that appreciates the finer things in life; sunshine, good food, smiles, and living well — all things that make up the expression, ‘Pura Vida’!
