We’re putting together weekend camps for this Fall! As Summer changes to Fall, come to Tsunan to play!
English is Fun!
The Challenge Program is designed for campers with limited English experience. Challenge campers sometimes come in with a few years of English learning under their belts, and sometimes with none at all. All staff are bilingual and offer plenty of Japanese support while gauging the right English level to use with each individual camper. Beginners welcome!
Best for:
- Kids with NO English experience
- Kids who are learning English, but still need some support in Japanese(Beginner-Intermediate)
- Some returnee kids who have forgotten so much English that daily conversation is difficult
Fun, real-life practice for English learners
At English Adventure, we use every activity to make English real (and really fun!) for English learners. Each day is full of interaction with friendly and supportive English-speaking staff. The results: improved listening and speaking, increased confidence, and greater motivation to learn English when campers return home.
At English Adventure camps, English is not a "class." It's how we live! We use physical, fun-packed outdoor activities and games (no textbooks) to teach and reinforce new words and interactions.

Campsite
Our campsite is located in the beautiful mountains of Niigata Prefecture, near the small town of Tsunan Machi.
Our little corner of the Japanese Alps is a perfect example of the variability of the seasons. Our campsite is blessed with forests, clear skies, and a lake.
