Let's go!

Whether on the mountain, in the swimming pool or in front of the campfire in the evening - you can learn English anywhere and anytime! In line with this motto, English is spoken at the English Action Camp not only in the morning during lessons, but also during all leisure, sports and evening activities.
Native-speaking trainers encourage you to use the language in all situations.

Fun language learning is at the core of the English Action Camp: on the first day after arrival, a placement test is carried out and based on the results, participants are divided in the appropriate language level group.

Together with the other participants from all over the world, you will work on projects, create discussions on current topics and work on improving your grammar.

Through varied activities and language workshops, your English skills will improve automatically, without any pressure or learning stress.

In your free time, there is a varied programme with attractive excursions (e.g. rafting or high ropes course, adventure hike, swimming, etc.).

4 x 4 our formula for success

yala-infografik

Fast and successful learning is guaranteed thanks to the 4 pillars and 4 daily** units of study.

The Yala! Method has 4 main focuses: Conversation, vocabulary, grammar, country & culture. Students experience, learn and discover these themes. Lesson plans are designed to be interactive and creative - role play, discussions, presentations, games and, of course, movement are all part of the holistic language experience! Since our language teachers also double as activity guides, the things students learn become applied knowledge all on their own and allow students to easily overcome language barriers.

All units are taught exclusively by native speakers based on based on the international standard "Common European Framework of Reference for Languages".

leisure activities

Whether you prefer to be sporty or creative - there's always a fun activity for everyone at the English Action Camp!

accommodation

The English Action Camp takes place at the ya! Erlebnisgästehaus Simonyhof in Radstadt.

The Simonyhof is in a quiet location in the middle of nature with no through traffic and plenty of space around the house. In summer there are great offers for fun, sport and adventure.

Sports fans will enjoy the large fun court and beach volleyball court right next to the house. The public pool with its 40 metre long giant slide (20 minutes' walk away) also attracts young guests on hot summer days.

By the way: The Simonyhof has its own farm. This means that fresh products are served at all times.  The evening campfire romance in front of the crackling fire under a starry sky or the weekly barbecue is of course included.
