Combining English with sport is one of the highlights of Exsportise summer camps.
With a team of experienced teachers our international students have the chance to take part in English lessons for one session each day.
Seaford College head teacher Richard Wright said the English programme was based around having fun while learning.
“We combine fun and learning, we always try to stimulate their interests in English,” he said.
Each student is assessed when they arrive at camp, with Wright putting them through a reading test and a writing test before talking to them to decide which class they will be in.
“On the basis of that they are put into of five levels, going from elementary to advanced,” Wright said.
“Most of them are in the intermediate group, but we have a lot in other groups as well.
“There are about six students in the advance class, some can speak very good English but we can always teach them more.”
Each class works to a weekly programme, based around a theme which helps link the subject together.
This week classes have been studying topics such as sport, the human body and the upcoming Olympics.
“We like it to have a them so we can group everything together,” Wright said.
“It makes it easier to remember and is something they can look back on when they think of Exsportise.”
