English Immersion Program, by Lisette


In the camp there were five counsellors, native English speaking, which shared information with the Robin News magazine.
So, there was Cassie, who's from California,USA, she's 25 years old and is a pastry chef, but came to Argentina to work in English camps.
She's been for 14 months and plans to stay until March, we asked if it was difficult to get used to our lifestyle, and she said that it wasn't, but it was kind of strange since the meals and dancing hours were different from the U.S.
Cassie's worked before with kids in California. We asked her if she liked being here, and answered us that she loved Argentina.
Then there's Bobby, who's from Florida, USA, he's 29 years old and is a music teacher, Bobby's been here for 4 months and liked it a lot, in order to get used to our lifestyle, he said it was strange the different times we had. We asked him if he worked at other camps, and said that not English ones, but music camps yes, and also said that he liked a lot being with us and teaching us games and stuff.
Then there's Sam, from Birmingham, England, she's 34 years old and is a kindergarden teacher in New Zealand, she's been here for 6 months and staying until April, and will work at other camps here in Argentina, which she liked.
We asked her if she had fun working with us, and said that she had a very good time, in terms of our lifestyle, yes it was difficult. Robin News also asked her since when was she working in camps and said that since August.
Then there's Meredith, from New York, USA, she's 29, used to work in the Nickelodeon magazine and in the Mtv studios. Meredith's been here for 1 year and liked it a lot, and plans staying 7 months more, it took a little while to get used to our living style, because the accent was wierd, but in other terms it was good.
She's worked with kids before, when she was 18 she was a babysitter in her hometown, we asked her if she had fun working here and said yes, as long as the kids have fun I'm totally fine.
And last there's Ronan, from England, he was like the leader of the whole group, we didn't have time to interview him, but from what we've seen he's a very fun person to be around.
So, making a summary, we had a lot of fun, and the counsellors were great, and we were like laughing all time, also we could practice our English a lot, so, we hope you decide to come because it was great! I mean, we had an excellent time!
