English at Camp F.A.C.E

Our counselors speak multiple languages and communicate in both English and German (German only when needed). We believe that the best way to learn a language is through play, sports, and daily camp activities — naturally and without pressure.

  • English is the main camp language.
  • Kids learn English passively through counselors and daily activity vocabulary.
  • No aggressive summer learning — it should be fun!
  • Mantras and chants during Color Games are in English.
  • Activity rules are explained in both English and German.
  • A great opportunity for kids to learn English while being active outdoors.

Language Partner Locking (LPL)

Choose a camp partner who speaks a different language than you — become each other’s language buddy.

  • Real conversations, real learning — practice your new language in everyday camp life.
  • Cultural exchange — discover new traditions, perspectives and ways of thinking.
  • Confidence boost — easier to overcome shyness with a supportive partner.
  • Learn naturally — vocabulary and pronunciation grow through games and shared experiences.
  • Mutual support — both partners teach and learn at the same time.
  • Perfect for English & German speakers — improve language skills without pressure.
  • Friendships for life — connections that last beyond camp.
