The perfect language-learning adventure
The secret to our Berlitz camps' success? Making language learning an adventure! We combine engaging lessons and cultural exploration with fun free time and sports activities. Held worldwide during school breaks, our international summer language camps for kids and teens allow young learners to actively learn English all day long. From the time they wake up to the time they go to bed, they'll be immersed in the language in a natural way. Mornings are filled with motivating lessons encouraging kids to speak their new language. Then, afternoons and evenings are filled with a wide range of activities where learning continues naturally, almost without them realizing it. Thousands of kids and teens experience this success every year at our international camps. We'd love for your child to join the adventure!
