Our first experience with an overseas summer camp was absolutely incredible! We spent a lot of time debating whether to send our daughter aged 13 to a camp abroad and, if so, which country would be the best fit. Initially, we looked into camps in Switzerland, Malta, Cyprus and the UK. In the end, we decided that if she was going to learn English, there was no better place than England—the land of Shakespeare and Big Ben.
We quickly realized that finding the perfect camp on our own, especially for the first time, wasn’t the best idea. Based on a friend’s recommendation, we reached out to Astra Education. Two things stood out to us immediately: their impressive professionalism and detailed knowledge of camps, and their official partnerships with camps in England. What’s more, their pricing matched the camps’ official rates—no extra fees or markups.
Liudmila was instrumental in helping us choose a camp that was a perfect match for our daughter’s interests. She patiently walked us through every detail, from accommodation to the daily program, ensuring we felt confident every step of the way. Preparing the necessary documents and organizing the trip was seamless thanks to her constant support. She was always available to answer our questions and provided reassurance whenever we needed it.
The camp itself exceeded all our expectations. Our daughter came back with incredible memories, noticeably improved English skills and even some new friends—a huge milestone for her since she’s usually a bit shy about meeting new people. She returned home more confident, full of energy and outgoing. As parents, we’re thrilled to see how much this experience contributed to her personal growth. She’s already counting down the days until she can go back next summer.
We can’t thank Liudmila enough for her professional and thoughtful approach. This was our first camp experience in England, but it certainly won’t be the last. We wholeheartedly recommend Astra Education to any parents seeking high-quality programs that combine development and fun for their children.
