Primary Teachers at Summer Day Camps in Oxford, Berkshire, Reading.

Day Camp Teachers are responsible for delivering engaging English language lessons to students aged 6-12. Their dedication ensures transformative experiences for each child. Integrated into the Ultimate Activity Camp programme, our Day Camp students participate in activities alongside British children. This setting not only fosters a multicultural exchange but also provides an immersive English learning environment.

Teachers design lessons that equip students to communicate effectively with peers and camp staff. Teachers champion a culture of respect, understanding, and a love for learning. As our Day Camp students are non-residential and are dropped off and picked up by parents/guardians daily, an integral part of the teacher's role is to communicate with parents/guardians, sharing insights into their child's day and what they've learnt.
