Camp Yojoa - Summer English School in Ireland:
Camp Yojoa is for children and young people aged 7 -17 years old from countries across the world who want to learn and practise English, meet new people, get involved in our fun activities and be a part of our Camp Yojoa community.

The school has fully equipped dormitory rooms in separate locations for boys and girls.

Campers will be put into three groups; beginner, intermediate and advanced for their English language lessons based on parent/guardian recommendation and an assessment completed by our English teachers on the first day of the elective. The English elective is taught by EFL qualified professionals and PGCE/PGDE qualified teachers that work together to plan and teach various lessons at different levels that are catered towards the campers’ abilities.
Our English teachers understand that not all campers will work at the same level and throughout the elective will be provided 1 to 1 support to make sure each camper is gaining something from the lessons.
Our English teachers will work together and utilize their different teaching experiences to create a positive, interactive and fun learning environment for our campers.
We also provide other exciting electives including sports, outdoor adventure, arts and crafts, mad science and performing arts, which are all taught by experienced staff. To end the day we have our evening activities, which are usually the highlight for our campers as they get to be silly, challenge the counsellors and have lots of fun. These range from Olympics to capture the flag to campers V counsellors, as well as discos and our talent show!
