I. English Dilemmas and Success Cases of Homestay Parents
Language barriers are a common challenge faced by parents who accompany their children to study abroad.
It is observed that 90% of homestay parents struggle with English, manifesting as difficulties in understanding parent-teacher meetings,
hesitancy to communicate with teachers, and frequent awkward situations in daily life due to language issues.
Notably, merely being in an English-speaking environment does not naturally lead to language mastery.
Without systematic and intensive learning, it remains challenging to make breakthroughs, as recognized by those who have lived overseas.
A Real Case of a Thai Homestay Parent
Take a Thai homestay parent as an example.
This parent needed English for accompanying their child in Thailand but lacked the proficiency for daily communication.
They decided to study English in the Philippines and, upon returning,
could basically handle their family’s life in Thailand with improved English skills.
Why choose the Philippines instead of Thailand or other countries? Through in-depth understanding,
it turns out that the Philippine Spartan English Immersion Camp is particularly suitable for those with weak English foundations.
It offers not only courses for children but also specialized programs for parents.
II. The Principle of the Spartan English Immersion Camp
Let’s use a simple analogy: many of us have learned English since primary school,
but our proficiency has remained at a "lukewarm" level (like 60-70 degrees Celsius), never truly "boiling."
As a result, even after graduating from university, many still struggle to speak fluently.
This immersion camp is like a burst of intense heat that quickly brings the "water of English" to a boil. At the boiling point,
you’ll suddenly find yourself able to understand and speak English. Therefore, instead of studying English aimlessly and sporadically,
it’s more effective to concentrate your efforts and achieve that critical breakthrough.
III. Camp Models and Courses
Besides English being an official language in the Philippines, this country uniquely offers immersion camps with nearly 1-on-1 classes.
In countries like Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand, group classes (one teacher for multiple students) are the norm,
and 1-on-1 lessons come at a high cost—even more so in Western countries. Moreover, the Spartan camp integrates accommodation, dining,
and learning into one comprehensive model.
The camp offers a rich variety of courses:
1-on-1 intensive classes
IELTS preparation courses
Small group classes (3-5 students)
Evening elective courses
No matter your current English level, there are tailored courses to meet your needs.
IV. Camp Fees
The tuition for one month is just over 10,000 RMB, including accommodation and three daily meals—
almost unimaginable elsewhere! This affordability is unique to the Philippines, where local English teachers earn an average monthly salary of around 2,000 RMB
—a cost that would be impossible to match in other countries for fluent English instructors.
Thus, only in the Philippines can you access such high-quality 1-on-1 immersion camps at this price.
V. Accommodation Facilities
The camp provides various dormitory options to suit different needs:
Single rooms
Double rooms
Twin suites
(See the image below for reference.)
Continuous study for 3 months can lead to a qualitative leap in your English proficiency,
while even a minimum of 1 month will bring noticeable progress.
Therefore, the winter and summer vacations are ideal for parents to bring their children to study together.
