English holiday camp at Lake Edersee

Youth hostel "Waldeck"

The English camp at the Waldeck youth hostel is surrounded by a national park, vast forests, and Lake Edersee – an ideal environment to practice English outside of the classroom. Whether it's stand-up paddleboarding, canoeing, adventure golf, a trip to the summer toboggan run, or a boat tour on Lake Edersee, our English-speaking counselors accompany the kids and conduct the activities in English. English remains the camp language during meals, free time, and the evening program . Our international team also creates a welcoming and friendly atmosphere where kids feel comfortable speaking English – with fun and without pressure!

Children and teenagers learn to use English in everyday situations and internalize what they've learned through direct interaction with one another. It's all done playfully and without pressure. Learning English has never been so much fun!

In class, the older children help the younger ones. The younger children repeat a lot, which gives them a very good feel for the language. During leisure activities, we've even found that communicating in English is often easier for the younger children than for the older ones. They're much less afraid of making mistakes, communicate with their hands and feet, and just start talking. And that's exactly the idea behind our camps.
