Camp program
The best camp contents are made based on the English skills, learning goals, camp terms, and study month. Here are some examples of Focus’ programs:
[Presentation Project]
School children in Canada experience multiple presentation projects during their school years. Topics vary from culture to history. Camp participants are encouraged to gather necessary information from librarians and books at a local library to create a presentation poster.
Asked relevant books to a librarian in English.
Made a presentation poster.
[Local School Visitation]
Are you interested in sitting in a class at a local school with Canadian students? You will see the differences and similarities in the school buildings, students’ daily life, teaching methods and teacher-student relationships through school visitation.
This can be a precious experience especially for those who aspire to study at higher education in Canada in the future.
A surprisingly massive school building.
Many students walk up and down in the stairs.
[English Presentation at a Local School in Canada]
Camp participants have a chance to present in English in a class at a local school in Canada. They will learn a logical way of organizing information in English for a better presentation.
Post-presentation discussion.
Wonderful encounter with local school children.
