My name is Alejandra (also known as Ale) and though I was born in Costa Rica, I grew up and lived in the US for more than 15 years. I came to Costa Rica after finishing school and taught English and primary in a private school before joining Intercultura as a Group Coordinator and Student Advisor. I give the new student orientation and city tour, and take all students on the free weekly local museum or historic town tour. I am passionate about getting to know different cultures and meeting people from all over the world. People describe me as friendly, thoughtful and that I like helping others. I love to spend time with my family and friends, do crafts, and listen to music.

 Feedback from groups

“Tanto los estudiantes como las dos profesoras coincidimos en que la experiencia brindada por Intercultura fue excelente en todos los ámbitos: académico, cultural, familiar, etc. El personal y profesorado que tienen está disponible en todo momento para facilitarnos a todos la experiencia. Además, la correspondencia y las tramitaciones burocráticas durante la planificación del programa previa a la llegada es rápida, frecuente y eficiente.”

¡Muchas gracias por todo!
