At Teen Summer Camp Campers Learn How To Learn

Teen summer camp participants at SuperCamp are given tools that enable them to operate at peak performance in all courses and throughout their academic careers.

Among academic summer camps, SuperCamp is unique in that it provides students with tools that help them perform better in every type of course at school, not just in specific subject areas.

 

At SuperCamp, campers learn how to learn. They are taught skills that cross all subject areas and that last through their academic careers and throughout their lives. And they are instilled with the motivation at SuperCamp to apply these new skills when they return home and go back to school in the fall.

 

The learning skills include brain-based techniques to improve one’s reading, memorization and writing ability, all of which are based on the Quantum Learning methodology that is also taught to teachers and students in schools across the country.

 

Kids and teens at SuperCamp also are armed with hot learning tips that they can use as constant reminders on how to operate at peak performance. These hot tips cover such broad areas as paying attention to one’s physiology when in class to help be more responsive to and active in the learning process and cultivating a winning attitude.

 

The Quantum Learning methodology employed at the summer camps are based on accelerated learning methods that SuperCamp co-founder and president Bobbi DePorter first applied with entrepreneurs almost 30 years ago.

 

SuperCamp targets its programs to specific age and grade levels. Junior Forum is for students entering grades 6-8, Senior Forum is for students entering grades 9-12 and Quantum U is for high school graduates through college seniors. A Youth Forum program is available in one location for kids entering grades 4 and 5.

 

This summer SuperCamp will be held at eight U.S. colleges: Stanford, Cornell, the University of Washington, Drake, The Claremont Colleges, Wake Forest, Cal State San Marcos and Colorado College.

 

Each camp balances academics with fun activities such as a ropes course and features a dynamic, interactive learning environment that maximizes the long-term retention of the information provided.
