Little Village Video

09.04.11 - El Puerto de Santa Maria, Spain - Little Village is TECS's Total English camp where the campers come and only speak English for two weeks. The camp sits on a pretty site just on top of the white-washed town of Grazalema in the mountains of Cadiz. TECS converts the campsite into it's own slice of the UK (or America) where everything is done in English. Campers work a lot on conversation and speaking English as their native speaking monitors and teachers do.

Here I profiled Amalia (yes the same name as the girl from Go Camp) who in addition to having excellent English, participated in the camp exchanges, worked as a monitor for a day, was on the debate team for intercamp and generally worked at being awesome. Kudos to Amalia.

For anyone who has ever taught English abroad, and especially in Spain, I can tell you that it actually works and is an amazing camp environment.

Let me know what you think.

Here's the video:

Amalia.
Nacho, who sadly didn't get to make a cameo in the video (Sorry Nacho). He definitely provided some laughs over the two weeks, especially with his routine as the Australian painter who was raised with an Italian accent so he could be more artistic.
Yoga. That's right. They do yoga at Little Village. And it's awesome.
