EF Language and Culture Camp in Hong Kong

Prepare for your high school exchange by meeting other exchange students, learning about the culture and practicing Cantonese. EF Language and Culture Camp is designed to help you get ready for your exchange year.

What you will learn

Become more comfortable with some basic Cantonese before meeting your host family and starting school. You will: 

  • Meet “professionals” – former exchange students – to hear about their experiences and ask their advice.
  • Take classes from native-speaking teachers who offer advice about Hong Kong life, culture and current events.
  • Learn the basics of and practice the Cantonese language 

Are you up for the challenge?

Attending a different high school and taking classes in a foreign language is a challenge, but also rewarding. It will broaden your horizons, expose you to new things and lead to personal growth. In addition, the experience will provide you with skills that will contribute to your future academic studies and career.
