English Classic
Our camps are perfect for students to improve theirs English language skills. Due to the fact that children and staff from all across the globe spend their holidays at our camps in summer, English is the main camp language. We offer classes at different levels from complete beginner to advanced. In our Classic Courses, we focus on conversation and incorporate lots of fun activities and games to build up the student’s vocabulary and strengthen the grammar skills. We encourage all students to actively use the language in order to improve their English, not only through our interesting lessons, but also by interacting with other campers during their free time. With so many international students at camp, the opportunities to practice the language are endless.
English Toefl®
For those students who are attending our English Language Camps in England or in the Bavarian Forest for at least two weeks we also offer our two-week TOEFL® Courses. The Test of English as a Foreign Language is the most widely respected English language test in the world. At the end of the course all participants will take an exam to achieve the TOEFL® certificate. The great advantage of TOEFL® is that no one can fail the test. It just measures the student’s ability to use and understand English as it’s read, written, heard and spoken according to the CEFR – the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (A1 to C1). Attending this special course is definitely worth it as all candidates will receive a certificate that not only proves their level of English but is also accepted by schools worldwide in case your customers consider to spend a school year abroad.
Students who attend the TOEFL® Course will benefit from 10 additional units on top of their 40 hours of classic English tuition. During those additional lessons, we focus on grammar exercises and practice important parts of the exam such as reading and listening comprehension and we will also use sample tests to get all candidates well prepared for the exam.
Camp Adventure is an authorized test center for TOEFL® and TOEIC®.
