    Who benefits from ESL camps?
    International parents visiting Toronto and other Canadian cities love the convenience of a day camp to help augment their child's understanding of English. As one father has said, "I came to University of Toronto to study English and loved that I could also put my son in an English as a Second Language for four weeks." Day camps offer campers the advantage of time outdoors with friends while they are not separated from family for an extended period of time.

    Students will likely take a test that determines their level of English and are then placed in the appropriate class. Grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, speaking, and listening classes in English are part of these fun camps that also offer activities like sports, shopping, sightseeing and games.
