Well after the sea — English-speaking game-training. We play on English. Do you know how much there are wonderful cheerful English games?!
Let's see which of our gentlemen will become the most wealthy!
Day
After dinner, when it's very hot in the street and so cool, we will devote ourselves to independent work. Everyone can choose a theme to their liking. Someone will seriously study English literature, someone history, regional studies &art.

English Cinema Club. Every evening we watch another movie. Of course, in English. After all, watching movies, like reading books, is necessary in the language of the "original", only then it is possible to understand what exactly the author wanted to say in his work.

We look, we discuss, we argue. Sometimes even write reviews.
Late Evening
Everyone will spend it the way they want. In our mini-language office for English computer games, in a discussion English club, in a toy library or simply for a book.

Sea, location, beach.
- Negative
Bad food, dirty dishes, inattentive attitude to children. The pool is only available, in fact for 14 days it has never bathed. The water is hot in the shower with a thin trickle, it is almost impossible to wash it. A child of 14 years, who was not in one camp in Bulgaria, unequivocally rated this as the worst.

Irina about «Fyentezi-Lyend» (girl 11 years old)
+ Positive
Resting-place. Animation in part.
- Negative
My child was extremely unhappy with the living conditions in the camp. The hotel in which the children were settled was old, there was a rusty air-conditioner in the room, which did not work at the arrival, there was no place to expand things, since there were one nightstand for the three children in the room, 6 hangers and 3 shelves, there were nowhere to place suitcases , so the children kept their suitcases along with the things on the balcony, for this reason on one of the days when it was pouring rain, the suitcases along with the children's things got wet. In addition, the room had one single and one double bed and two children were forced to sleep in one bed, which is a violation of sanitary and epidemiological standards. I think that the price of the tour does not match the quality.

According to her daughter, "compote stank of socks, but by the end of the shift have become accustomed." When the daughter was ill and turned to the nurse, she advised her to take the medicine, and the daughter with the temperature went to the pharmacy. And the saddest thing is that they did not get the honey back. Help. For another camp it was necessary to collect them anew, these are two days of vacation at their own expense-minus nine thousand of their salary.

Interesting excursions, a good program, fabulously beautiful nature. The child (12 years old) was very pleased - now he advises his friends.
- Negative
I should not expect that in such camps I have any serious business in English. Unfortunately, there were no promised extra lessons (they gave him money with him - we were told that you can already register in a guitar circle, for example) - but you could not get a guitar or other lessons. He brought the money back.
• Answer from camp
Good afternoon, Julia! Thank you for providing feedback. We are very happy that the child was satisfied. Honestly, we wonder why it could happen with classes, because Everything that we promised was carried out according to the program in full. The management personally supervised all these issues. And in the camp there has always been a list with those clubs that pass in this period of time. Perhaps the child did not say about his desire to visit this or that club counselor or the director of the camp. In any case, thank you for the information, be sure to find out why this happened.

+ Positive
Good nature

1.Very bad rooms for living. We settled in a dirty room. Son says even the floors in the train station in the restrooms are cleaner. Poor rooms. Photo sent, I can share.
2. There is no sports playground. In the camp there is not even a tourniquet. The football field is made of concrete! As a result, broken knees.
3. On employment, do not give any explanations, explanations on English. The answer is either take individual lessons or a teacher on a regular excursion. And what did you pay for that? He sent a photo of these casemates ... I remembered my student body building detachment. barracks.
4.14-16 summer teenagers do not let out anywhere and nobody is engaged in them. Entertainment find themselves.
5.Very minimal set of fruits. Practically there are none.
Why did they collect these questionnaires where they asked about nutrition?
6.Less of condensers! Try to stay in the barracks in the summer without kondintsioner!

• Answer from camp
Sergei, hello! I answer in more detail all points of your feedback. Firstly, I would like to note that this camp is held on the basis of the hotel 2 *, where air conditioners are not provided, as was known to all in advance, tk. on the site there is a detailed description of where the children live and it fully corresponds to reality and the hotel itself has a huge green territory, thanks to which a shadow is formed and in the rooms it is even cool and it is from the heat that sometimes you can hide only there. As for the barracks and rooms - in the rooms there is everything necessary and there is no misery and it must be understood that after all this is not a 5 * hotel. In occasion of a dirty room, the child may have moved in before the time and did not have time to remove the number, because peresmenki happen once a week, when simultaneously 150 -200 children leave and come and naturally maids for an hour, two do not have time to remove such a number of rooms, in connection with which we ask the children to wait a little at the reception. But maybe the child did not wait and went straight to the room. Responding to your second point, I would like to note that just in our camp there were 2 sports grounds, which is a big rarity for Montenegro in principle. Montenegro, unfortunately, does not have as many sports grounds as, for example, the same Bulgaria. On the lessons - it's absolutely untrue, absolutely all children are given 6 hours of English a day and English teachers have had enough, no one was deprived and the children are always busy with classes, projects, master classes, and preparations for evening activities. As for the fruit, it is true this year they were in the minimum number, in connection with which we specially bought watermelons, melons, nectarines and cherries for children, and were given out on a mid-morning snack.

Ol'ga Sergeevna about camp program «Only English Land» (girl 14 years old)
+ Positive
Excellent counselors, good sea. Communication in English (if possible).
- Negative
Under the program: specially chose dates to capture the theme of France and England. In fact, for three weeks there were several lectures about France (in Russian for some reason), about England it was not mentioned at all. If they knew that this would happen, then they would go to other shifts.
A group of daughters went to the sea at the hottest time of the day - at noon, since before that there were classes in English.
On the hotel: it's just horror! The daughter was settled in an uncleaned room. Under the bed there were garbage mountains from previous tenants. Food at the hotel is not intended for feeding people. Macaroni and soup with pasta. About fruit there do not know anything, probably.

Olga, good afternoon! Thank you for your feedback. As for the program and the countries you wanted to visit, maybe you planned to go to another Russian-language camp called Fantasy Land, where the lectures on the theme of the week are being held. And Only English is all the same the program intended for studying of English language and at them there 6 hours of employment and the bias goes on grammar, colloquial speech. By number it is possible that such a situation has occurred, due to the fact that the children of the previous left, and the new ones have already arrived and the maids did not have time to clean (because a large number of children leave immediately). On food, all opinions are different, but in any case, we will improve this issue.
