Program Overview

Program Description:

International Language Camps is a SUMMER and WINTER French camp for children and teens from 6 to 17 years old from around the world. We offer holidays and vacations with a multitude of activities and a complete language teaching program, all in the heart of the French Alps. Children have the possibility to develop their linguistic skills and discover new activities and cultures. Our language programs not only offer an opportunity to learn a foreign language but also encourage campers to discover new cultures, to make new friends from around the world , to value different activities, to learn to live and work with others, to get involved with an international community and, most importantly, to blossom with this success. We use 'multiple intelligences' in our teaching methods, exploring the different ways children learn to get the best out of each individual child. Our linguistic camps not only feature foreign language study, but also encourage participants to discover new cultures, make new friends from all over the world, invest in themselves within an international community, and explore their talents. Everything is in place to instill a climate of confidence, and we encourage our campers to be active in their own learning, creating the desire to continue to learn and to communicate. We help our campers discover their inner strengths and use their resources to their advantage. They make tremendous strides in self-confidence, and we help them to flourish in everything that they try.

The objectives for our participants: Learn a foreign language by total immersion in an international context with a multi-lingual team and with children from all over the world. This means that approximately 10 different native languages can be heard at the camp during a typical week! Become an international citizen by living in a multicultural context with continuous interaction among peers, which naturally leads to the respect of others. Learn about themselves, blossom by exploring all their talents, exceed their own limits to achieve significant accomplishments, through sporting and discovery activities, and the creative workshops which compose much of the daily activities of the children. Our program is an excellent one. Our programs are made by teachers with years of experience in teaching French or English as a second language.
