The Coaching

Raise your game!

Raise your game in a friendly and positive environment. Strong players are challenged tactically, technically and physically, while developing players will learn to master grip, spin, movement, power and consistency. Coaches, working on a 1:6 ratio will use demonstration, practice and feedback including video analysis - to improve technique. Fitness and conditioning drills put emphasis on footwork, balance and speed. Expect plenty of short-set matches and competitive challenges on court, including beat the coach! Our coaches make the camp fun as well as challenging. Off-court seminars will further extend the tennis experience.

Where?

Who is this for?

Players who want to improve their English through a combination of classroom teaching and living in an immersive English-speaking environment. Our teaching programme, based on the successful CLIL model, is taught by highly qualified native-level English language teachers using a sports and tennis-focused curriculum to keep students fully engaged.

Students with a minimum B1/intermediate level of English, including native English speakers, who want to equip themselves with the skills and confidence to understand, analyse and present in business English. Led by teachers experienced in delivering Business English, these classes will provide young minds with the foundations they need to compete in the international job market in the future.

...and the result? All students leave the camp with their English workbook to take home. They will also receive an individual assessment from their tutor with advice on how to further develop their language skills, and a CMT English language proficiency certificate. Students should see a clear improvement in their English language skills by the end of the camp.

...and the result? Students will learn how to work through a series of business case studies, analysing problems and creating solutions. They will also learn how to present their findings and how to formulate and articulate their own business ideas. They will be able to create and deliver effective presentations, in English, both verbally and electronically.
