The following are some positive and negative aspects of my experience that you may want to consider. + POSITIVES ~ Teachers are generally dedicated and of high caliber.

Great beach to learn how to surf. Plenty of places to rent a board or take a lesson. Very clean. Not much parking and the May sun made it very hot from 10-2. Scorcher. More

We spent two weeks at WAYRA in Tamarindo and it was a great experience. All three schools we attended were good, but the quality of instructors and curriculum at WAYRA were the... More

They were able to accommodate my wife and I with lessons along with our 12 year daughter. Since we have a 4 month old newborn, they were even able to recommend a nanny who... More

Teachers rotate every week - generally teachers are pretty good, lots of teaching experience and well organized and try hard to make the lessons interesting and relevant. Note that classes are either morning or afternoon sessions and they move you each week. Afternoon sessions are beastly hot. Students are mostly... More

To encourage him, we all decided to learn a little Spanish with him. Wayra Spanish School was the only school that was able to accommodate the entire family. We started in... More
