Experiences Camp – full immersion

You learn a language by experiencing it and that is the approach used at our experiences camps. Here, the focus is less on language workshops and more on learning the language by speaking it at all times. Under the guidance of our camp coaches, you will debate, explore a city, learn a new (adventurous) sport or let your creativity run wild, all in the target language. Participants should have a good grasp of the basics of the language. We expect you to be able to understand simple conversations and instructions without much effort and to talk about simple topics (talk about yourself, express your feelings, ask simple questions). Although there are fewer or no language workshops at these camps, our camp coaches will of course continue to help you become increasingly fluent in the target language.
