Camp Beaumont’s “English In Action” courses lead the field, appealing to young learners from all over the world. We give students the opportunity to improve their English language proficiency, Information Technology and study skills in a vibrant English speaking environment, where UK children also go for their holidays.
Active learning
English in Action is about learning actively, sometimes in teams, sometimes with a classmate and sometimes as an individual. Aided by the most innovative written publications, audio-visual materials and English language IT programmes, students carry out tasks which will improve their abilities in the four key areas of speaking, listening, reading and writing. These graded tasks deal with universal topics such as the environment, entertainment, healthy living or sport and can include taking part in a discussion, planning and presenting a publicity campaign, researching and then describing an important local or international issue or carrying out a survey. There are also games and competitions too! Students act out everyday situations such as going shopping or even dramatic self-produced sketches, which are recorded and stored for future enjoyment.
Improved Learning Ability
Another important element of Camp Beaumont’s courses is the element of study skills provided. Students are encouraged to think about how they organise their studies so they can learn more quickly and efficiently. They learn how to note down, categorise and store new information, making it easier to remember and review. They learn how to structure talks or written pieces coherently and how to look for patterns in word and sentence structures. This will prove invaluable for their studies in the future. By the end of their stay at Camp Beaumont, students will have improved their English language at every level, grown in confidence and be more prepared for future study.
