YES USA runs amazing fully-inclusive Junior Camp programs for 12-19 year old students. The program includes 24/7 supervision, English classes, accommodations, full board, daily excursions, entry fees, and local transportation.
Classes
Students will have 20 academic hours (15 clock hours) of English lessons weekly, from Monday to Friday, with our highly-qualified and experienced teachers. We use cutting-edge techniques to help students improve their fluency and accuracy in speaking. Not only do learners improve their English but also have fun doing it by holding interesting and motivating discussions with their instructor and classmates, playing educational games, and learning about life in the USA and Los Angeles in particular.
After class, the learning continues as students continue to speak English with their activity leaders, and each other, as they enjoy our rich and exciting excursion program. Campers are strongly encouraged to use English at all times and practice using what they learned in class in real-life situations during trips and social activities.
Accommodations
Students live in a modern suite-style residence hall, which throughout the academic year houses students from Concordia University Irvine and YES USA students during the summer.
Excursions
Our excursion program is packed with activities to entertain and educate students when they are not in class allowing them to see the very best of California.
Our students get to see everything vibrant California has to offer. Students will visit the iconic areas of Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and the Hollywood Sign. There are also opportunities to shop at the Irvine Spectrum Center and South Coast Plaza as well as see beautiful beaches such as Laguna, Newport, and the Santa Monica Pier.
Daily activities and excursions have been carefully selected to be not only educational but exciting at the same time. Our enthusiastic staff members love their jobs and are always happy to share their knowledge of the city, American life, and history with our students.
Every single day campers will be able to practice their English in real-life situations in more informal settings while they are out exploring the fascinating city of Los Angeles and making lasting friendships.
