SuperCamp Success
No one denies that SuperCamp has been a success, but no one can agree on why. Some think it’s our unique learning environment and the experience a supportive atmosphere provides. Others claim that it’s the enthusiastic staff and the extensive training they undergo. The president of Learning Forum, the group responsible for designing SuperCamp, says that our success is due to shifting “how people feel about themselves.”
Our courses are unique, too. We offer students high-energy life skill activities that teach, entertain, and prepare students for the rest of their lives. Our hands-on academic skills training isn’t about specific scholastic material, but about learning to learn. They cover topics like reading, note-taking, writing, communication and relationships, creativity and problem-solving, test-taking, memory, and more.Each element of SuperCamp contributes to the overall success.
Just like the teaching technique we use—a comprehensive synthesis of many successful strategies—our camp experience is a collection of the best ingredients available: staff, skills, and teaching style. They blend together to create something greater than their parts—SuperCamp!
