The first tree weeks in Athens offer an immersion in the English Language through English lessons according to the students level, by native English teachers as well as cultural and city experiences ideal for teens. Lessons are provided in the educational setting of Plato IB World School.
For the last week, though, pencils are put away! Epirus Camp is aimed at improving participants' spoken English through fun activities in nature. Students spend their days at the camps using specially designed material and engaging in fun-filled activities.
On the day of arrival to each campsite, time is given for orientation, team-bonding activities but also rest.

Project education is a modern, innovative approach that has been implemented in the curriculum of all international schools in the past 10+ years. In addition to language knowledge, project education also helps to acquire knowledge into many other areas.
Life for 4 weeks in an English language environment is guaranteed to be effective and provide a solid base for cultivating a foreign language.

Career Guidance - Vocational Counselling (Upon Request)
Total Duration 2,5 hours
1 hour - Computer - based testing
1,5 hours - One to one discussion of the Test results and Career Counselling by certified psychologists
Method: Ariston Psychometrics
The ARISTON series of tests are based on advanced psychometric methodologies and mathematical models with the aim to analyse the personality of an individual for vocational counseling in order to identify the profession / occupation.
ARISTON test is using an advanced Expert System which is based on research work that has been funded by the European Union and Governmental Bodies.
When we refer to an "expert system" we imply advanced software and specialized knowledge regarding personality types, special aptitudes and abilities, and corresponding work environments. The software produces a report automatically, following extensive analyses of the answers you give online.
The knowledge contained in the expert database is classified by age, gender, academic departments, occupations and specializations, and is based on extensive analyses of thousands of professionals and young people. In other words, the test has been verified and validated on a very large sample of real cases. The results of the report produced can be used to support tasks related to personality analysis, vocational counseling and human resources management.
More specifically, the results can:
Identify hidden talents, professional inclinations, aptitudes, abilities, and special features of your personality.
Verify whether your personality can cope with the requirements of specific work environments or specializations that requires University education.
Verify the practiced profession and the degree to which this is compatible with the personality of the individual.
Identify alternative vocational interests and occupational areas that are fully compatible with your personality.
Support tasks concerning recruitment, transfer and promotion, area of specialisation, placement in departments, vocational and career counseling, and general human resources management.
This test is based on state of the art theory for testing cognitive abilities using spatial and diagrammatic reasoning, beyond the Cattell-Horn-Carroll theory of cognitive abilities and the Wechsler scales, which evolve around the traditional approach that includes language and mathematical abilities. The test identifies those realms of thought where the subject appears to have learning difficulties, problems in assimilating new information beyond previous experience and reasoning. Assessing the ability to quickly understand and assimilate new information we can predict how responsive to education and training the person will be. The test is independent of attainment and can be used to provide an indication of intellectual potential.
