GREAT! Our Summer Camps are the perfect place for you!

OUR SUMMER CAMPS
Our summer camps stretch over five days a week (Monday to Friday) and the daily schedule is 9-17 (lunchtime and morning break included, working time is expected to be no more than 6.5 hours per day). Don’t worry, you are NOT going to plan anything but your transfer to and from Bergamo and, most importantly, you won’t have to manage the kids on your own.

Once in Bergamo (Bergamo has a well-connected airport, Milano Orio al Serio BGY), Didakè is going to provide you with two days of training. The training will be held on Fridays and Saturdays before the starting date of the camps.

WHAT IS THE TRAINING ABOUT?
Summer Camps leaders are going to clarify all the details about summer camps, timetable, scheduled activities, teaching material and how to use it, lesson plans and any information you’ll need to get the most out of this experience.

Absorbe new teaching techniques and manage circle time activities, movement games and craft and get into the groove with learning-oriented songs and dances.


You will have the opportunity to meet the other tutors and your camp leaders for the summer camp!

HOST FAMILIES
On Sunday you will be welcomed by your hosting family, where you’ll receive full board and a single room.
Staying with the family is an amazing opportunity for you to get to know our culture better and taste amazing homemade Italian food, just like our Nonnas do!

The following Monday, your Tutoring Activity will start at the camp which will be held in the same village your Hosting Family lives
