We are happy to have you at ESB in the summer as well!
Life is buzzing at the English School of Budapest even in July, as we offer exciting English language summer camps for children aged 6 to 13.
Our programs, held at our school in District II, are led by experienced native English speaking teachers, supported by Hungarian English bilingual assistants, so every child can feel comfortable, no matter their level of English.
For us, summer is all about exploration, curiosity, and building confidence – not about textbooks!
Each week is built around an exciting theme, such as nature, science, theatre, sports, or art, through which children develop their English skills playfully and almost without realizing it.
Our camps welcome not only ESB students but anyone who wants to join!
From Monday to Friday, between 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM, we provide enjoyable learning, lunch, and the attentive supportive care typical of small group activities.

What people say about us ?
Nagyon jól szervezett, biztonságos és inspiráló tábor volt. A tanárok figyelmesek, kedvesek, és valóban törÅ‘dnek a gyerekekkel. Ritka az ilyen magas szÃnvonalú nyári program.
Számunkra az volt a legnagyobb öröm, hogy a tanulás játékosan, élményszerűen történt. A gyermekünk észre sem vette, hogy közben mennyit fejlődött angolból.
Kiváló egyensúly volt a tanulás, a mozgás és a szórakozás között. A gyerekek végig aktÃvak voltak, sok új barátság született, és fantasztikus élményekkel gazdagodtak.
Ez volt az elsÅ‘ nyári tábor, ahonnan a gyermekünk nem akart hazajönni. Nagyon pozitÃv, támogató légkör, szuper programok és elhivatott tanárok. SzÃvbÅ‘l ajánljuk más szülÅ‘knek is.
