Each summer ACLE sends close to 750 native English-speaking tutors to around 400 camps in Italy. Camps are either city-based (City Camps) or residential (Summer Camps). Both types of camp are overseen by an English-speaking Italian camp director. Directors are usually English teachers and, in the case of City Camps, usually work at the host school. ACLE Camps aim to: - Provide a full-immersion experience in English for Italian children who are unable to spend the summer in an English-speaking country.
- Create enthusiasm and motivation for new multicultural experiences.
- Demonstrate that the traditional Italian teacher-centred scholastic system of “chalk and talk” fails to stimulate the emotions and energy that an entertaining atmosphere can provide.
City Camps are usually held at a local schools and the children come five days per week, generally from 9 to 5. Tutors are hosted in either a flat or by a family who opens their home and hearts to them.
Summer Camps are residential and usually held in a hotel where the children come and stay for a week at a time. Tutors also stay at the hotel and work all week with the children, providing activities such as lessons, drama, games, sports and evening activities. High School Campus is a programme for high school students. As with our other camps, the aim of High School Campus is to provide students with a rich cultural and linguistic experience adapted to their ages, abilities, and interests. If you’re enthusiastic, positive and dependable, this could be the experience for you! Watch our promotional City/Summer Camp and High School Campus videos. These videos will give you an idea of a day in the life at camp as well as an outline of the job as a camp tutor.
