Description
We are an international language school and cultural center run by a non-profit organisation. We are located near the center of the village of Mazunte on the Oaxaca Coast, on a hill with beautiful sea view and always touched by a fresh breeze.
Since 2010, we've been offering immersive Spanish classes to travelers and foreign residents worldwide. Additionally, we host English classes for the local community and others languages classes. Our project is not just a school, it's a space that functions as a place of exchange for different people and cultures and that is, for all students and visitors of Instituto Iguana, a welcoming place to arrive, relax and enjoy.
Founded in 2005 by Mexican and German friends (Ana & Eule), the project is now led by María and Elsa. As a volunteer, you'll be an integral part of our team, working closely with them both and with our teacher's team.
Ana and Eule, the school's founders, spend part of the year living at the school. Panuncio, responsible for gardens, cleaning, and maintenance, ensures the school remains a safe and welcoming space.

Autres infos...
We're an intercultural team from Mexico, Germany, Spain, and France, along with our friendly dog and four cats. Smoking is permitted. Our school is conveniently located just 5 minutes from the beach, offering various activities like swimming, snorkeling, diving, stand-up paddleboarding, surfing, and opportunities for whale, dolphin, and turtle watching. Public transport options include pickups and taxis, but since the village is small, walking is an easy option. The nearest airports, Huatulco and Puerto Escondido, are both just a 1-hour drive away.
