Cactus offers summer junior courses for teens aged 13-17 years in two sister schools in Costa Rica: the student city of Heredia and the coastal resort of Samara. These teen summer camps enable students to learn Spanish whilst immersing themselves in Costa Rican culture and discovering the wonderful nature and landscapes of this small but diverse country. Activities after class often make the most of the beautiful natural surroundings, be it pristine beach or verdant jungle, with surfing, horse riding and canopy tours popular pursuits. Latin dance and cooking lessons are also available, and all give students the chance to practise the language with each other and the locals. Students are accommodated in local homestays in Heredia, where they will be welcomed into family life, and in a hotel in Samara which offers great facilities for teens.
Cactus offers a vast range of junior courses across Spain, to cater to all levels, ages and interests, and as such it is a popular destination for youngsters wanting to learn Spanish. Courses are available for juniors aged 7 to 20, and include residential all-inclusive camps, summer day camps, 'A' Level revision courses and specialist activity courses for watersports. All courses include Spanish tuition in classes with others of the same age, and activities every afternoon that range from football, tennis and swimming to cultural excursions and visits to nearby places of interest. From the thriving capital of Madrid to the beach resorts of Denia and San Sebastian, a junior course is an excellent way for your child to learn Spanish whilst enjoying the wonderful local Spanish culture, food and climate.
Our juniors course in Uruguay has been designed for children aged 11 to 14 who are travelling with parents enrolled on an adult course at the same school. The school is located in the vibrant capital city of Montevideo, in a pleasant residential area just a few blocks from the beach. Junior classes are kept small and tuition is appropriate to the children's age, based around grammar, conversation and educational games. For parents who wish to spend time in South America, this course offers a fantastic opportunity for all the family to learn some Spanish whilst enjoying the music, theatre, food and history in which Montevideo excels.
