A Unique Opportunity to Learn English

What makes the ASV Summer Program a successful English camp year after year? “ASV offers its own learning method, aligned with the ASV experience during the regular academic year: the program is focused on communication skills, students use English everyday, learning takes place having fun and our teachers actively give positive feedback,” Ms. Felicitas Berazay, Summer Program coordinator, describes. 

“The program has a remarkable loyalty rate: families come back year after year,” she adds. “We work hard to offer a consistent high-quality experience in English.” This language is also used during sports and other complementary activities and children learn in a relaxed and enjoyable setting.

The enrollment process is open and a number of classes are already completed in Preschool and Elementary. On May 11, 2021, the school is organizing the last virtual orientation.

Go Tech with the ASV Summer Program

For all those students interested in technology, we offer the ASV learning experience through two specific summer camps on educational robotics and technology. Go tech and get to know the ASV Tech Camp and the ASV Tech Camp Junior:

ASV Tech Camp Junior

The ASV Tech Camp Junior is an introductory robotics program for children studying Grade 4 and 5. Students will develop a robotics project from a panel with challenges. In the robotics section, these tests will help understand how the different sensors and engines work and how to solve basic robotic challenges. 

The campus also includes 2D animation projects, stop-motion film making and video game programming. 

ASV Tech Camp

The ASV Tech Camp is addressed to students in Grade 6 or Secondary (ESO) education. 

Participants will develop a robotics project by completing a panel with challenges. Each step will give a strong comprehension of how the various sensors in the Lego Mindstorms and Ozobot platforms work. Students will also learn to use video game creation software and 3D modeling. 

Fun Immersion in English 

Both programs require an intermediate or advanced level of English to be able to follow the activities. Students will enjoy the same time of sports and swimming pool existing in the general program.

Thanks to their hands-on approach and the ASV immersion method, these programs are two exciting alternatives for taking English proficiency to the next level as students develop highly valued skills.

Improving the English Level through the ASV Experience

Would you like your child taking a big leap in the use of English? Meet the ASV Summer Program for secondary students and let him enjoy a different learning experience where communication skills, creativity and critical thinking are extensively developed. The ASV Summer Program is an English immersion program addressed to secondary students who want to improve their English level. In a similar way to the specific programs for Preschool and Elementary, the program is focused on the four core language learning areas: reading, writing, reading, oral communication and comprehension. It also puts  special emphasis on advanced vocabulary and grammar.

Students may register for two or four weeks. The program includes intensive English classes, activities and workshops, outdoor activities, sports and swimming time. Our native/bilingual teachers are trained in the ASV philosophy and use engaging learning materials created by the National Geographic Society. Classes are organized according to students’ age, level of English and affinity with classmates from previous editions or the regular school year.

Robotics and Soccer Camps

In addition to this, families may be interested in the ASV Tech Camp and the ASV Soccer Camp, two specific alternatives focused on robotics and soccer. Participants in the ASV Tech Camp will complete a robotics learning program structured in challenges and applied projects. The program also includes coding software and 3D modeling. The ASV Soccer Camp is a new soccer intensification program in English led by our coach Javier Estellés: the activity will combine practical training sessions on the field with theoretical classes and swimming sessions.
