LETS SPEAK ENGLISH-1

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

SEKADER is a local NGO aiming to socialize disabled people of the area through water sports. They hired a camping site where they teach swimming, kanoing and diving to disabled people. To raise a fund to cover the costs of the camping site they run a camp to practise English.

💼 What the programme involves

Are you in the 14-18 age group and do you want to improve your English in an international group of young people? This is a camp for you to have fun with less work and more speaking. Whatever level you have, like beginner, poor, under intermediate, you will speak a lot to improve your English. Apart from the light daily work, there will be 3 hours outdoor English lessons, night games, afternoon language activities, cultural night and national dance activities. There will be Turkish youngsters as well in the group. So you will have a chance to learn a lot about them and you will introduce your culture and country. You will play games altogether. It will be a great camp, great fun. The work in this camp will be light as practising English is the main aim of the camp. Volunteers and participants will clean the beach / campside and do similar activities together. Besides English practices and activities, volunteers will be responsible for the daily cleaning of the site including the area, kitchen, toilet and bathrooms and other buildings and some landscaping work. Part of the the group will clean the beach.
