ENGLISH CLASSES
​
According to The Tico Times News "there is a direct correlation both here and abroad between the number of meaningful job opportunities and the English-language proficiency level of the workforce." Therefore, we seek to motivate youth to improve their English, in order to maximize their career options in the future.
​
Naturally, it takes more than just classes to gain the level of fluency necessary to be competitive in the workplace. Students need to have a certain level of dedication to apply their English beyond the classroom, and incorporate it into their everyday lives. Tacos4Ticos is a perfect opportunity for this, because as well as practicing their English on the field, their learning is supported by bi-weekly classes at our 'Namu University'. We believe that these classes, coupled with our football program, will help combat school drop-out rates and unemployment locally.
