The GEOS Study and Volunteer Program in San Francisco gives students the opportunity to learn English and gain work experience through volunteering in a real work environment. GEOS Languages PLUS strongly believes that studying English is just not enough. The volunteer program is designed for students who would like to volunteer during their free time after school. Most of our volunteer groups work with Non-Profit Organizations located within walking distance of our school or no more than one hour away by public transportation. GEOS San Francisco offers a variety of placements in fields including Preschool, Environmental Protection, Senior Care, Animal Care and International Businesses.

Students study at GEOS Languages PLUS in the morning and participate in volunteer activities in the afternoon in one of the most exciting cities in the US - San Francisco! By joining the American community through intensive English study, volunteer activities and host family experiences, students can broaden their English learning opportunities. Total immersion in English learning experiences such as this offers excitement, confidence building and satisfaction to all program participants.
