Since the San Jose location also teaches English to Costa Ricans, there is ample opportunity to meet and converse with native speakers at the school.
Many students arrange informal conversation exchange sessions.
Intensa believes that relaxation through recreation is an important ingredient of any intensive study program. Therefore, the school has supplemented the instruction program with a cultural program which includes homestay with a Costa Rican family, field trips, Latin American dance lessons, and tours through the lush, green, picturesque countryside and to breathtaking tropical beaches.
