English is one of the hardest languages to learn to speak. Here is a funny but true picture of how hard it is for non-native English speakers to learn to apeak English.

The 2019 camp director's meeting will be held this weekend in VA. We will be meeting to discuss new ideas, lessons, and making plans for some great summer ESL camps iin China. The camp director's all have years of participating in the teaching experience in the summer camps.  We are looking forward to our planning and preparation time on Friday and Saturday.

Currently we have 48 people signed up to go with Bridging The World to teach the spoken English language to Junior high and high school students in China.

Yesterday was the day for both of the winter Camp groups from Beijing and Qiqihar to learn about some American foods and how they are cooked. The students had a good time and were able to enjoy and eat the food they had prepared.
