"I'm very pleased that I chose to study with this school. The mixture of volunteering, friendship and activities was just what I was looking for. Ecuador is a beautiful, diverse country and I would strongly recommend spending weeks or months here."

Spanish & Volunteers

In order to take full advantage of your time in Ecuador, we offer you the option of studying Spanish while volunteering in one of our programs APF Team's main goal is to help the needy.

The work with our volunteers has proved to be an enriching experience for both the people who are being helped and for the volunteers who have the opportunity to help the less fortunate while learning and practicing a new language. To help to the less fortunate concerns to everybody. Therefore, we offer the opportunity to volunteer in two programs:

1 - Humanitarian
2 - Ecological

Because the latter is being developed outside of Quito, your accommodations will be in the nature reserves or stations in which you are volunteering. In the Humanitarian programs, however, you can stay with a host family in Quito.

Programs:

Our Spanish & Volunteer programs are very flexible regarding the amount of time you would like to volunteer and/or study.

Therefore we give you two program options.


Volunteer Option 1:
Spanish and Volunteer ( Humanitarian volunteer in Quito )
This program is designed for people who would like to waste no time in our country. People who opt to enroll in this program would be studying Spanish and volunteering at the same time.
We are in need of volunteers for a variety of programs that work with the elderly, with children, and with community outreach programs throughout Quito.
To participate in this program, you might need to have a strong command of the Spanish language.
*Minimum time commitment: 2 weeks of Spanisch at the APF and 2 weeks volunteering.

Volunteer Option 2:
Spanish and Ecological volunteer (Outside Quito)
With this program, you will begin by taking a few weeks of Spanish lessons at APF in Quito, in order to improve your fluency level in Spanish before you volunteer in the project you have chosen. We have programs in the Coast, the Jungle, and the Highlands.
We advise that you take at least 2 weeks of Spanish prior to volunteering if you do not have any knowledge of the language.
*Minimum time commitment: 2 weeks of Spanish at APF and 2 weeks volunteering

Note: You can volunteer as a guide in the Jungle, but the minimum time for this program is 6 months. You need an advanced level in Spanish and English. It is important for applicants to be very interested to learn about the Amazon.

Cost for Humanitarian and Ecological Volunteer Programs:

Registration Fee:     US$ 50
Spanish tuition and Accommodation: refer to Quito prices.
