It is not always necessary to travel far from home for your children to enjoy an English summer camp. Living the great experiences and games of a summer camp whilst learning English in a fun way is possible, thanks to a team of bilingual and native monitors who will speak the language throughout the camp. To communicate with each other, the young campers will need to use English in workshops, games and all other activities. Here is everything you need to know about English summer camps in Madrid.
But not all English camps are the same — there are English camps to suit every taste and preference. If parents are interested in full immersion in the language, there are English summer camps in Madrid where the entire team speaks exclusively in English throughout the whole programme. If, on the other hand, they prefer specific English-language classes or activities for a few hours each day, so their children do not forget what they have learnt during the school year, there are also residential and urban summer camps on offer that alternate those English hours with the rest of the classic summer camp activities in Spanish.
Language immersion at summer camps
Language immersion camps are the best option for combining learning with fun. Because the language is integrated into daily life and every planned activity, participants will learn almost without realising it and without any effort. This is a camp aimed at participants with an intermediate level of English who can understand and enjoy the camp and, at the same time, improve their spoken expression in the language. There will be sports activities, water activities, themed workshops, excursions, evening events — all with the overriding principle that English is the language of communication throughout the entire stay. Of course, in exceptional circumstances such as illness or personal difficulties, participants will be able to speak in Spanish with their key monitor.
Our Sierra de Madrid English Camp is an example of a summer camp close to Madrid, in full contact with nature and with a complete programme of outdoor activities — all led by a perfectly prepared team of bilingual and native monitors who will carry out the entire programme with English naturally integrated, ensuring the summer camp is a great success and that participants return home with a higher level of English without any effort.
English classes and activities
There are also other options for English summer camps in Madrid. These are summer camps with themes suited to your child’s interests, but which also include certain hours of English-language workshops within the activity programme. In these camps, English is not the main language of communication; instead, the language is practised for a set number of hours each day during the stay, before the group moves on to other classic camp activities. These are the most common type of English summer camp, as they balance both elements so that children who are less interested in the language can still enjoy a summer camp without forgetting what they have learnt.
