CHILDREN’S CAMPS ABROAD

Children’s consciousness is like a sponge – the child quickly absorbs new information, eagerly learning about the interesting and impressive world around. Therefore, it is extremely important to give the child the opportunity to spend this wonderful time as productively as possible, contributing to the disclosure of potential and the realization of abilities. Education plays one of the key roles in this process, and teaching foreign languages from childhood allows you to develop communication skills. Children’s camps abroad, providing a rare opportunity for your child to make new friends and spend a few weeks or even months in a rich language environment, are the best option for periodic study abroad.

AGE LIMITS AND STRUCTURE OF TRAINING IN A CHILDREN’S CAMP ABROAD

Language camps for children based abroad accept children from 7 years old as part of their programs, some separate institutions are ready to deal with kids from 3 years old. In addition, there is the concept of a teenage camp, the minimum age for participation starts from 14 years old. A youth camp is a camp in which the youngest participants are 17 years old.

For the knowledge gained in the camp to be better absorbed by the inquisitive children’s minds, it is necessary to develop a program where studying abroad alternates with exciting activities, games, discussions, and communication with representatives of other cultures and language speakers. This form of language learning contributes not only to expanding vocabulary and mastering the rules of a competent structure of speech but also to developing communication skills, as well as just having a good time.

GROUP TRIPS TO LANGUAGE CAMPS

Every caring parent, before sending their child to a camp abroad, begins to worry and worry: how will the child get to a foreign country? Who will meet him there and accompany him to the venue of the training program? Who will make sure that the baby eats regularly and is healthy? How will his clothes be washed? Every little thing raises a million questions because the safety, health, and well-being of a child for caring mothers and fathers always stand above all values.

Many camps abroad organize group trips, ideal for just such cases when parents are worried about the lack of independence of the baby and the need for help from adults. Stars Academy LMS especially recommends group trips for those children who are going to go to a language camp abroad for the first time.

We try to form groups for admission to camps abroad based, first of all, on the age criterion. Checking the level of knowledge of English among children is carried out using a test directly in the camp, according to the results, all students are divided into groups. Particular attention in such institutions is paid to ensuring that children communicate with each other and with teachers in English – this contributes to more rapid growth in speech and communication skills, as well as consolidates the knowledge gained in the lessons.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A GROUP TRIP?

Group trips to children’s camps abroad have the following undeniable advantages:

Security.

From the moment of departure to arrival back home, the group is accompanied by a Russian-speaking responsible adult who also knows English very well.

Experienced group leader.

As a rule, this person is a STAR Academy employee or an English teacher with vast experience in organizing and conducting such trips for children to other countries.

Escort at any event.

Among the recreational activities included in the program of the educational children’s camp, there are always several excursions. Of course, they are conducted in English.

Cost control.

If desired, parents can give the child’s pocket money directly to the group leader to avoid rash and frivolous spending in the camp.

THE CAMP ABROAD INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING ASPECTS IN ITS PROGRAM:

language courses abroad.
accommodation in the camp.
three healthy and balanced meals a day.
sports activities and games.
exciting leisure activities (events, excursions, master classes).

STAR Academy is ready to offer assistance in preparing documents and choosing a summer camp program for children, as well as to assist teachers who have already formed children’s groups and wish to go with them to a foreign children’s language camp.
