I was a native speaker on the Angloville Junior programme and I can say it was easily one of the best weeks I've ever had! The co-ordinators were fantastic both with the kids and with us volunteers, it was a fun-filled week full of a mixture of activities, games, group sessions, one-on-one interactions between the children and the native speakers and free time as well to relax and chat with the children or get involved in some pool or table football. The children were really enthusiastic after the first day nerves were over and it was great to see the improvement in some of their English but even more rewarding was to see the huge boost to their confidence in speaking English and speaking English in front of others. They coped really well with the range of English accents as we had volunteers from America, Australia and from all over the UK (I'm from Manchester, the 2nd largest city in the UK) and it was a fantastic opportunity for them to have a real immersion into the English language. They also got to meet people from all different backgrounds, from students, travellers and people who were in work. It was so good that I'm going back!!
