Eco English School

It is a great place to visit. Nicaragua is the biggest country in Central America. It is the only country which has an island with two volcanoes in it. Gastronomy is wide and rich. Our people are hospitable. If you love the beach, this is the best place to surf.

I have been a teacher for almost 28 years. I am passionate for teaching. My dream was to have my own school in which I could provide quality education to kids who do not have the opportunity to attend elite or high profile schools, so after ten years of working hard, preparing myself professionally and gaining the experience required, I finally could get my dream come true. Eco English school was born in 2019 with lots of hope. At the beginning there were only two of us, me and my kind and devoted co-worker who is the second in charge who strongly believed in me and the project. After almost five years I can say that we have succedeed, our kids leave with a big smile begging for the day to pass quickly and come back tomorrow for another new adventure at the school. Our community of parents are so happy to see how their kiddos are learning and enjoying their school life. It is still a small school, a small community but with a huge heart. We teach English as a second language and from second grade on, french is taugth. If you would like to be part of this lovely project and make an impact in those little minds for a better world, this is the right place. You won't regret it.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Joselina, her family and her staff. The school is such a positive environment to be a part of and the children are so eager to learn. I loved getting to know them and working in lessons teaching English as well as a couple of other subject areas as most of the lessons are delivered in English.
Joselina's family took good care of me, always making sure I was eating, comfortable and answered any of my questions. The room is spacious and right across from the school.
I would highly recommend coming to experience this lovely school.
Thank you so much

One of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever had. Joselina and Raul are amazing hosts and will immediately make you feel like part of their family.
Teaching the children at the school was very fulfilling and I had so much fun with the students. Eco English School is a very special place and makes a big difference for the community.
I had an unforgettable experience and can totally recommend volunteering here! :)

I am really thankful for Clementine's work. She was a great teacher for the students. I loved the fact she proposed ideas to improve the pronunciation of the kids, the way she socialize with the whole team and our family was so warming for us. I recommend Clementine for future volunteer work. She is absolutely reliable and trustworthy. Thanks a lot for all what you did for our kids! We hope to see you soon.

J'ai vécu une expérience formidable à Eco English school. Toute l'équipe éducative est au top et je suis touchée par leur engagement auprès des élèves qui sont très attachants. Tout le monde a fait de son mieux pour que je me sente à l'aise à faire ma classe de français et ça a fonctionné.
Ça fut aussi un grand plaisir de partager la vie avec la famille de Miss Joselina. Ça fait chaud au cœur d'être si bien accueillie.
Merci de m'avoir fait découvrir l'âme du Nicaragua à travers vous. Merci pour les visites du dimanches dans de beaux endroits du pays.
Je suis enchantée.

I had the best few weeks with Joselina and her family, the accommodation was right next to the school which was great. Joselina and her family were all so welcoming and the food was great! I tried so many traditional foods while I stayed and went on so many trips to nearby places in Nicaragua which were fantastic. The children at the school were so sweet and the staff were just the kindest and most welcoming people.
I would recommend staying and volunteering at English Eco school as I had the best time and Joselina and the staff are all making a real difference in the community! ❤️

We loved to have Chloe as part of our community. She was an amazing volunteer. I enjoyed her stay and I wish she could have stayed more. We tried to show her a little bit of Nicaragua culture. The cultural exchange was great! We learned from her country and she learned from ours. She got along with all the staff and my family quickly. It was like as if we knew her since long time ago. She even cooked English panckacke : ) for us. She was an angel among the kids and they loved her. We will miss you Chloe.
