Student Mentors

Would you like to spend a week or two experiencing a wonderful summer school with students from around the world?

 

At English Study Camps we are excited to offer our Student Mentor programme to UK based students, aged 12-17, for the second summer running. After a successful first year in 2023 we are looking forward to welcoming British students to Lord Wandsworth College to take part in our summer school for the summer of 2025.

 

Our UK student mentors are invited to become cultural ambassadors while taking part in our LWC Flyers programme. As members of the student body, they assist students from around the world in learning about British culture. The programme offers a rich multicultural experience while bridging the gap between UK students and their international peers.

 

In 2024, we welcomed 27 different nationalities at Lord Wandsworth College, giving UK student mentors the opportunity to make a lot of international friends and learn about different cultures. Our mentors will live on campus in our residences with other international students, and participate as students in our Future Business Leaders course. They will join the rest of the students in fun activities and excursions including Brighton, Windsor, London and Oxford. This unique platform not only cultivates cultural exchange but also nurtures leadership skills and a global mindset among our UK student mentors.

 

Our student mentors are cared for as if they were our international students and this includes round the clock supervision by our English Study Camps staff.

 

We ask that our student mentors are dropped off and collected by their parent or guardian at our Lord Wandsworth College campus on their first and last day, they can sign up for one or two weeks and everything else on the course is included for free. This includes:

 

  • Insurance

  • Accommodation and food

  • The Future Business Leaders Course

  • All excursions and activities

 

If you are a student from the UK, aged between 12 and 17, and would like to apply for this programme, please click this link to apply. Once we receive the application then a short meeting will be set up to discuss the application with the student and their parent(s) or legal guardian(s)

Student Mentor Testimonial
