Aprendizaje y ambiente familiar!

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
Un ambiente acogedor, con personas muy calidas y profesionales, pude vivir una experiencia corta pero muy productiva, apoye el area de marketing del campamento de verano y planeacion prospectiva para el crecimiento y suenos de Let's Start.

Considero que let's start cuenta con herramientas actualizadas y versatiles de facil entendimiento y acceso para los alumnos, flexibilidad en la programacion de clases y creacion de grupos de acuerdo a las necesidades de las personas, es una buena oportunidad tanto para los locales como los turistas, contar con espacio cerca al mar, estando en un lugar "San bartolo" que acoge a deportistas, turistas locales y extranjeros. Es una excelente oportunidad para que los ninos aprendan y disfruten su verano.

Esta orientado para que tenga apertura para todas las condiciones economicas generando impacto social muy positivo en las personas humildes del distrito sur chico, dado que esta enfocado en brindar un servicio para todas las personas sin distincion de clase economica.

Mi gratitud y carino con Let's Start.

Volunteering at Let's Start

This past summer I got to work as a volunteer at the Let's Start summer program. For a month, I went to San Bartolo twice a week, and I helped the teachers with the English classes. These classes were given to kids as young as 3 years old up to teenagers. I helped mostly with the little ones (between 3 and 7). My work consisted in helping the teachers and coming up with activities for the children to learn. It was a really nice experience because it allowed me to help kids that don't have the same opportunities as I do, and also because it involved using English, an advantage I usually take for granted, but is really important to communicate around the world.
The teachers were really good with the kids: they had so many activities planned and knew how to teach them without them getting bored, or distracting. The house where the classes were held was perfect as it was not too big. That way, we could keep an eye on the kids but still had enough space for them to play.
One of the things that I appreciated the most about this experience is the fact that I not only got to help these kids by teaching them English, but I also got to learn some things myself. I learned about the kids lives and living conditions, and also about what kids like and don't like. During this month, I also learned about myself, and how to work with kids. It helped me to have more patience with them.
Overall it was a really nice experience and something I would love to do again! I think it is an amazing way to spend your summer.

A nice place to work and Learn in summer time

San Bartolo is a small summer district 50km aprox from Lima by the sea. The working experience in Let's Start within a summer time environment its always nice, there are things to do, people to meet, and people to teach. Let's Start is a good place to learn english specially for people living in the surrounding area where there are - kind of - small and walking distance districts that benefit from Let's Start's location in San Bartolo. In summer time Let's Start offers a playful program for children that consisted on teaching english through games and creative activities reinforcing what is learnt in regular school or giving them the chance to learn english for the first time. The rest of the year there are regular english programs for people of all ages selected based on age and level of knowledge. The idea is to give to all the chance to learn such an important language that will allow them to get more and better opportunities to improve their lives at a cheapest rate possible for all to be able to study. San Bartolo is a surfing town that has hosted many international surfing tournaments, it is a cool place to stay, learn and live.

What would you improve about this program?
By having the best people possible, and a better infrastructure and technology.
