I just survived my first week of Summer school!
We are at Aldenham School, a private boarding school. At the moment we have about 90 ids from 11-16 from Spain, Turkey, Russia, Portugal, Slovenia and Taiwan.
A typical day is breakfast at 8. Quiet time from 8.30-9. Then 3 one hour lessons in the morning.
There is either activities in the afternoon such as arts and crafts, tennis, football etc and 3 afternoons a week the students go into London. Some nights not coming back until 9.30!
Some evening there are more activities like scavengers hunts, Olympics, discos and that finishes about 10. Then it is quiet time again and lights out at 10.30.
So pretty long days!!
I have a class of 15 students at elementary level and also share a pre-intermediate level with another teacher.
All of my students are lovely, a few troublesome ones, but nothing I can't handle!
All in all it is pretty tiring but I am enjoying it!
