Barcelona Spanish Summer Camp City

CHOOSE FROM A WIDE RANGE OF ACTIVITIES

Our aim is to encourage students to learn Spanish through fun and creative activities that allow them to develop their personal communication skills.

For this reason, we work in multicultural groups that maximise the connection between national and international students and in this way also strengthen their bonds.

ACTIVITY PROGRAM

The daily program is designed so that students can practice as many sports as possible and participate in a varied list of workshops and recreational activities, always focused on the different age groups.

ORIENTATIVE PLANNING

SPANISH LESSONS

Both the content and materials of the summer Spanish courses and the teaching methodology aim to achieve the perfect balance of fun and rigour so that our young learners get the most out of their Spanish course.

This is the only time of the day when the Spanish students will be separated from the foreign students, and they will be reunited at the end of the classes.

The English and Spanish classes in Barcelona will take place:

Mornings: Monday to Friday.
With 4 lessons of 45 minutes per day.
With a maximum of 15 students per class, an average of 8.

At the end of the program and once the course is completed, students will receive a certificate together with a progress report.

TEACHING

Our teaching team is made up of qualified native Spanish speaking and bilingual teachers with experience in teaching. With an average of 8 years’ experience teaching Spanish at our camps, our teachers’ motivation ensures that our young learners have fun while learning a language.

We want to help all our students to develop their ability to speak and understand Spanish. Our innovative teaching methodology provides personalised learning that combines lessons inside and outside, so that the student is the protagonist and not the teacher.

TEACHING METHODOLOGY

Our proven teaching methodology is based on learning through projects and actions. A practical method that makes students gain confidence and enjoy learning languages while working on real-life projects.

Students will work in teams, make proposals and come up with ideas about their project, evaluate solutions, assign tasks to each member, decide on the means by which they will present the project (video, photos, posters, presentation, etc.), select the materials and manage the time. In the meantime, they will learn and improve interpersonal skills.

DIDACTIC MATERIAL

The didactic material is focused and designed for each of the age groups and levels.
This material will be given to the student on the first day of class and will be complemented with other support materials to facilitate comprehension.

LANGUAGE LEVELS

The student’s level will be determined by a test on the first day of class. Students will be placed according to their age and the results of the test. The leveling of the language courses will be done according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, distributed in these 6 levels:

A1: Beginner.
A2: Elementary.
B1: Intermediate.
B2: Upper Intermediate.
C1: Advanced.
C2: Very Advanced.

CERTIFICATE

At the end of the course, each student will receive a detailed certificate and a personalised evaluation of the Spanish camp.
