Learn a Language while Volunteering Overseas with Projects Abroad
While you are volunteering on a Projects Abroad placement you have the ideal opportunity to learn a new language while immersing yourself in the culture and traditions of your host country.

It’s very rewarding to learn a language abroad while you are living the local lifestyle of your chosen country. Our language courses offer a combination of personally tailored lessons and daily opportunities for practice. You will also be able to practice what you are learning in your daily volunteer placement. Consequently you will make good progress and may surprise yourself how quickly you are able to grasp a new language.
You can take part in 14 hour language courses in:
- Spanish - Argentina, Chile, Costa Rica, Mexico and Peru
- French - Senegal and Morocco
- Russian – Moldova
- Arabic – Morocco
- Mongolian – Mongolia
- Nepali – Nepal
- Romanian – Romania
Language courses are tailored to your level and run alongside your placement.
The 14-hour course costs $345.
Language Courses for Long Term Volunteer Placements
If you’re looking for more in depth study and are on a placement for at least three months, you could take part in a 60 hour course that runs alongside your placement. The following courses are available:

- Spanish in Argentina, Chile, Costa Rica, Mexico and Peru
- French in Senegal
- Arabic in Morocco
- Russian in Moldova
The 60 hr course costs $1.345
Full Time Foreign Language Courses with Projects Abroad
We also offer intensive one month language courses where you focus solely on learning a language, rather than combining it with a volunteer program. These courses involve 60 hours of individualized classes, and are particularly useful before you start placements in subjects where some grasp of the local language is of benefit, such as journalism or medicine.
Intensive one month language projects run in the following countries:
Argentina, Costa Rica, Mexico, Moldova, Morocco, Peru and Senegal.
