The School

Our partner school in Sosua is located in the eastern section of the city, in a neighborhood known as "El Batey". Both the city center and Sosua's principal beach are a short walk away from the school grounds, which are surrounded by tropical trees that shade the 4 outside terraces where classes can be held. Dominican students studying German or English and international students studying Spanish amicably socialize, relax and practice their new languages in the outdoor garden, equipped with comfortable lounge chairs and a ping pong table. Indoor classrooms are simple yet cozy. The school is equipped with computers with free internet access, and Wi-Fi for students who bring their own laptops.
