High School Students Learn How to Learn at Summer Camp
At SuperCamp’s summer programs, students learn to apply themselves to learning and develop a new interest in school. “SuperCamp,” said one mother from Del Mar, California, “changed my daughter from getting below average grades to honor roll in one semester. She can apply herself much more easily and is far more confident.”
Result of a recent study involving over 6,000 SuperCamp graduates ages 12 to 22 show that 81 percent of the graduates felt more confident and 98 percent continued to use the skills they had learned at camp.
What’s the formula behind SuperCamp’s success? It may be the educational philosophy of co-founder Bobbi DePorter. Heeding a call from parents, she created a program that fills a gap left by traditional education. At SuperCamp, students gain life skills, learn to expand beliefs, and accept that they can learn anything quickly and successfully.
They discover that what one student can do, so can the other, if the tools are given to succeed. Students are taught that limits can be broken and are given the tools and the experiences to do it. With a new set of beliefs, self-confidence and motivation increase dramatically, says DePorter.
A proper physical environment is also important to better learning. SuperCamp uses one that stimulates the senses with the sights, sounds, and touch of success.
An important part of SuperCamp’s philosophy is that students are taught how to learn, not what to learn. Students gain knowledge of specific tools that can be applied to any school subject, including foreign languages. Courses include test preparation, writing, communication, and memory.
SuperCamp’s academic summer camps will be held in 7-day, 8-day or 10-day sessions throughout the summer at nine college campus locations across the country. More information is available at the SuperCamp website or by calling 800-285-3276.
