Our camp will be taking place in Cañas Dulces with students
from Cañas Dulces and the neighboring town Buena Vista. It will be a volunteer
lead camp with two volunteers, Jessica and Ashley. The students have placed at
first level English and struggle with simple questions like "when is your
birthday?" after having been taking English classes for 5 years. They are
timid and constantly reminding us that English "les cuesta" or that
they struggle with English. Both teachers at the schools are great, but we feel
that providing a fun English-only environment for them will challenge them even
more and encourage them to start THINKING in English! We want to help them feel
comfortable and confident about their English speaking abilities and set them
up for a successful first year in high school. We are so excited about the camp
and the best part is that so are the kids!!!
