À propos du programme

This program is the perfect opportunity for people looking to gain real-world experience working with patients in speech therapy and physical therapy.

Work alongside experienced staff to treat patients with a variety of disabilities and traumas like cerebral palsy, down syndrome, brain injury, and stroke.

By interning in the speech therapy program you can expect to assist in tasks like:

  • Physical therapy
  • Especial education support
  • Creating educational material for patients.
  • Speech therapy.
  • Fine motor skill therapy.

The project aims to create an appropriate learning environment for people who suffer from mental disabilities or have suffered severe trauma. While attending the project, patients are challenged through a variety of specialized techniques to gain or regain motor skills, and speech. Patients also learn new alternative ways to carry on their day-to-day life.

Work is around 6 hours per day Monday to Friday, mostly taking place in the mornings.

Interns must be able to communicate in basic Spanish. If you don't speak any Spanish you are welcome to take online or in person lessons with us.

Sur le projet

Integrated Learning Experiences was founded in 2005 by former Peace Corps staff that wanted to provide flexible volunteer programs with a positive impact.

Rencontrez votre hôte

Integrated Learning Experiences’ (INLEX) mission is to strengthen human resources in Central America and South America through volunteer programs, educational travel and internship opportunities.

In addition to this, INLEX provides opportunities for students and professionals to further gain experience in their field of choice by matching participants with the best opening available.

We work towards:

  • Sustainability in the projects and communities that we work in.
  • Programs that promote cultural exchange.
  • Safe and affordable programs.
  • Strengthening and empowering communities.
  • Authentic experiences for our participants.
  • Facilitating education.

INLEX was set founded by former Peace Corps staff in Guatemala in 2005 who wanted to provide flexible programs for volunteers in Central America. This flexibility allows our participants the option to commit for as long as they want in the area they are best suited to support; creating a positive impact and a rewarding experience. We do this because we believe in the principle that every volunteer can make a difference.

Many years and happy people later, we continue working with key partner projects to develop communities in the Latin American region.

The work in preservation and protection programs of marine wildlife in Monterrico (Guatemala's Pacific's coast) was amazing: I did exactly the same work as my Guatemalan colleagues.
