Looking for a life-changing summer camp experience? Chester College's international language immersion summer camps offer an unbeatable combination of learning and fun. Here are 10 reasons why choosing our summer programs is the right choice for you or your child.
1. Pioneers in Language Immersion Programs (Since 1985)
At Chester College International School, we’ve been leading the way in language immersion summer camps in Spain since 1985. With nearly four decades of experience, we offer a well-rounded program that combines language learning with personal growth.
2. Holistic Development and Responsibility
We are more than just a language camp. Our mission is to nurture the holistic development of every child and teenager who joins us. Our programs are designed to build language proficiency while encouraging personal responsibility, teamwork, and creativity.
3. A Family Atmosphere
Founded as a family-run institution, we pride ourselves on our tight-knit, supportive community. At Chester College, we create a welcoming and safe environment where every camper feels like part of the family—an essential aspect when learning a second language.
4. Proven Trust and Loyalty
Our reputation speaks for itself. Over 60% of our campers return for a second summer or more. In fact, in 2019, 40% of campers had attended 6 or more camp editions! We are now welcoming the children of former campers—proof of the lasting impact of our programs.
5. Accredited External Language Certifications
We are proud to be an official Trinity College London examination center since 1992. With a 95% pass rate, our campers are well-prepared for their Trinity and DELE exams (offered by Instituto Cervantes), which can boost their academic and professional futures.
6. Focus on Safety and Personalized Attention
Safety is a priority at Chester College. We offer personalized attention both inside and outside the classroom, ensuring that campers receive round-the-clock supervision and support.
7. Highly Qualified Native Teaching Staff
Our experienced, native-speaking teachers are not just educators—they are passionate mentors. With an exceptional 1:8 teacher-to-camper ratio, your child will receive focused attention and support to achieve real language results.
8. Maximizing Fun and Learning
We believe that learning should be fun! At Chester College, we balance engaging language lessons with exciting outdoor activities to create a dynamic and unforgettable summer experience.
9. Unique Drama and Music Experiences
One of the highlights of our summer camps is the creation of a full musical performance. Campers get the chance to write, act, and perform in front of family and friends. This creative endeavor is often rated as one of the most memorable aspects of their time with us!
10. Friends for Life
Chester College summer camps bring together students from Spain and across the globe, creating an enriching cultural exchange. Your child will not only leave with improved language skills but also with lifelong friendships from different parts of the world.
