Seongbuk-gu Hosts '2021 Spring Break Online English Camp with Universities'

Non-face-to-face English Camp Combining Play and Learning

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Seongbuk-gu (Mayor Lee Seung-ro) will hold the '2021 Spring Break Online English Camp with Yonsei University' for two weeks from February 15 to February 26 through an online platform.

Until now, the native English camp was conducted annually in a short-term, intensive camp format utilizing the university's excellent human resources and facilities. However, this year, due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic making face-to-face classes impossible, the camp will be conducted non-face-to-face using the video lecture program Zoom.

This native English camp will be operated under the learning management of native teachers and Korean assistant teachers, using kits that allow simple science experiments and craft activities, implementing offline experiences in an online environment. It is designed with fun play activities so that participants can naturally acquire target vocabulary, grammar, and simple daily conversation skills.

The native English camp, conducted through prior application, will have a total of 60 participants from grades 3 to 6 who are either registered residents of Seongbuk-gu or attend elementary schools located in Seongbuk-gu. Registration began on January 11 on the district office website on a first-come, first-served basis.

A representative from the Seongbuk Youth Future Support Center stated, "We hope this will be a beneficial time for children who spend a lot of time at home due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic to enjoy both play and English learning together."
