We had the 2nd English Camp on the 8th and 9th of August at Yama no ie in Shimada.
    We stayed there over night with around 18 non-Japanese English speakers. Our aim for this camp was not to speak Japanese so we tried to use only English during the 2 days which was not easy for us to do. However, communicating with each other in English for 24 hours helped us to improve our English skills so much, and we were able to listen to real conversations between native speakers. It made me feel like I was in a foreign country!!
    On the first day, we practiced for our presentations and then had free time to play and had fun with our friends and the staff. In the evening we had the English Camp Party. We enjoyed a quiz and many kinds of games together.
    On the second morning, we made groups of 6 or 7 including one or two native speakers and made our presentations; for example games, quizzes, dances and so on, in front of all the other members. We needed to cooperate with the native-speakers so we got many chances to talk with them in English. We not only had chances to communicate with them, we could spend time with them anytime we wanted.
    The camp became one of the precious memories in my college life and I want to thank to everyone who took part in this camp. I definitely had a great time for 2 days.
