Description:
ACE Canada Adventure Camp is an ESL summer Immersion camp located in beautiful British Columbia Canada. Our camp is aimed at senior high school and university aged students between the ages of 16 and 24. We pride ourselves in our size and quality. We offer small group settings (only 20 students per camp) taught by qualified ESL instructors. Mornings at camp consist of English classes and afternoons are for fun. We are located in Squamish BC, about one hour north of Vancouver and one hour away from Whistler Village (site of the 2010 Winter Olympics). Students will experience camping in a natural setting and try exciting new activities such as hiking, horseback riding, rafting, swimming, cycling and more. ACE Canada Adventure Camp is owned and operated by proud Canadians. Our ESL program consists of listening and speaking activities that emphasize vocabulary building and pronunciation. Our immersion approach requires students to speak English all day - every day. ACE Camp lesson plans are based on practical information that students can put to use that very day. Lessons include the environment, advice/opinions, culture, job interview skills, health and fitness etc. Our main focus is on improving our students speaking ability through one-on-one tutoring and classroom discussions.
