VOLUNTEER WORK
Bolivian Spanish School (BSS) also provides the opportunity to do volunteer work with various organizations, which correspond to your interest, vocation and time. We have contacts with diversity on non-profit and/or charitable organizations. These include the Sucre psychiatric hospital, the psycho-pedagogical institute, local orphanages, daycare centers, women’s aid groups and child laborer educations centers.
Requirements - In order to participate in our volunteer work program, students should meet the following requirements:
1.- Students should have at least a basic to intermediate level of Spanish, both understanding and speaking. For students arriving without any prior Spanish, this can typically be accomplished in 2 – 6 weeks of Spanish study, depending on the student’s ability, and hours of study each week.
2.- Students must make a written request for a volunteer position accompanied by their resume or curriculum vitae.
*Students needs to stay at least for 4 weeks (one month) to be able to work with one of the Institutions.
The school will forward this information to the different organizations with whom we work in order to secure an appropriate volunteer position for the students.
