Hi, my name’s Christine!
>> Read this text in English <<
Ich bin hier, um Ihrem Kind zu helfen, mehr Selbstvertrauen in der englischen Sprache zu gewinnen, gleichzeitig draußen zu spielen und mehr über die Natur und Nachhaltigkeit zu lernen – auf spielerische Art und Weise!
Ursprünglich komme ich aus Boston, USA, und lebe seit 2004 in Deutschland. Seit Anfang 2020 mit meinem Mann in Nidda-Stornfels (Hessen).
Seit 20 Jahren bringe ich anderen Menschen die Natur und die englische Sprache bei. Ich bin gelernte Biologin, erfahrene Natur- und Umweltpädagogin sowie Englischtrainerin. Ich bin auch Mutter von drei fast erwachsenen, mehrsprachigen Kindern und liebe es, draußen zu sein. Natur und Nachhaltigkeit sind die Kernthemen aller meiner Kursangebote.
Ich weiß genau, wie es ist, eine Fremdsprache beherrschen zu wollen. Zusätzlich zu meiner persönlichen Erfahrung mit Fremdsprachen (Spanisch und Deutsch) habe ich Sprachentwicklung studiert und unterrichte Englisch nach dem so genannten CLIL-Ansatz – dem wirkungsvollsten Ansatz zum Erlernen von Sprachen, den die Menschheit kennt.
English in Nature wurde für Menschen jeden Alters entwickelt, die die Natur lieben und ihre Englischkenntnisse anwenden und verbessern möchten.
Ich freue mich darauf, Dich kennenzulernen und gemeinsam mit Dir die Wunder der Natur zu entdecken und Dir dabei zu helfen, Dein Englisch zu verbessern!

Frau Taylor hat neben ihrer empathischen Art, den Kontakt zu den Kindern herzustellen, die Fähigkeit ihre eigene Begeisterung zu den vielfältigen Themen rund um die Natur weiterzugeben. Sie beherrscht ein breites Repertoire an Methoden, die sie je nach Gruppensituation und Alter auswählt und bietet so den Teilnehmer*innen ihrer Kurse ein besonderes Naturerlebnis. Durch ihre langjährige Erfahrung als Gruppenleiterin führt sie souverän durch ihre Veranstaltungen und schafft es, auch komplexe biologische Sachverhalte unterhaltsam, spannend und verständlich zu vermitteln..

You are also welcome to leave me a voice message (also via WhatsApp), but please speak slowly and clearly when giving your name and address.

Yes, we would be happy to give both families a 5€ discount per day, whenever a friend decides to sign up on your recommendation.

Each day, the children should arrive at 10 o’clock.
Each morning at 10:10, we sit together for a quick talk and decide what we want to do that day. Every day, at least two activities will be offered that each child can choose for themselves. Older children (12+ years of age) can choose a small project that they can do more or less alone (with adequate supervision).
Everything we do at camp has to do with nature, and English is always spoken.
Every day we have lunch* together. Sometimes we’ll cook something small (no meals). Sometimes we’ll discover something new and learn about that. Also every day, we play games, do some exploring, crafting, creating, building, storytelling, singing, chatting and chillin. Hey, it’s summer! A time for being relaxed and having fun!
After lunch, we’ll either have more activity options or just continue what we started in the morning.
At 4pm, the kids walk over to the parking lot (at the edge of the sports area) where they are to be picked up, always on time.
*Tip: Lunches must be brought from home! A list of items that children must bring each day will be sent to you with the registration form.
Another important note: Please avoid picking up your child early without prior notice. If you have any questions or need to talk during the program days, please call me between 5 and 6 p.m. (Mon-Thu). Please understand that the preparation and follow-up of the daily program takes a lot of time and attention.
No, there’s no maximum number of days, nor is there a minimum. You can register your child for just one day or for as many days (in August) as you and your child would like!
However, the day camp will only take place if the minimum number of participants is reached, namely two or more children per day.
Yes, there must be at least two children whose registration is paid and confirmed in order to guarantee that the camp program takes place on a given day.
In other words, the day camp will only take place on the day in question if the minimum number of confirmed participants is reached, namely two or more children per day.
Yes, there must be at least two children whose registration is paid and confirmed in order to guarantee that the camp program takes place on a given day.
Note: If the first child’s registration is cancelled, the discount for the sibling is also cancelled.
To prevent any child from being overwhelmed, all participating children should have completed at least one school year of English lessons.
Tip: You are welcome to request a free consultation to find out more about this. You can normally reach me by phone Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. by telephone at 0 1 7 8 / 8 7 7 9 3 0 7. However, I encourage you to send me a message to request a telephone appointment that is convenient for you.
Yes, of course! Walkers and hikers will love the beautiful hiking trails we have here, and can enjoy the beautiful paths through the valley, the hills or forests. MOUNTAIN BIKERS can ride the many trails that circle in loops and stretch for kilometers in every direction. If a quiet place full of natural beauty is what you’re longing for, Stornfels is the place!
Just down the road, for WATER LOVERS, is the Nidda Reservoir, where you can find a spot on the grassy lakeshore to unwind and charge your batteries, take a swim or take your SUP, kayak or inflatable raft for a paddle ’round. Or you can strap on your rollerblades or hop on your touring bike and spin around the lake on the paved walkway. SHOPPING is also nearby in Schotten and in Nidda, but only for those who prefer small, cozy shops–we have no shopping malls here.
Food & Drink: Right next door is Stornfels’ own BERGHOTEL (reopening on the 19th of August), where delicious food and drink is served daily! Along the way to the Reservior, there is also the famous Küpferschmiede in Rainrod, where good wholesome food and drink is served with a smile.

In addition to her empathic way of interacting, Ms. Taylor has the ability to pass on her own enthusiasm for the diverse topics related to nature. She masters a wide repertoire of methods, which she selects according to the group situation and age, and thus offers the participants of her courses a special experience of nature. Due to her many years of experience as a group leader, she leads her events with confidence and manages to convey even complex biological facts in an entertaining, exciting and understandable way.

Hi, I’m Christine!
I’m here to help your child become more confident speaking English while playing outdoors and learning more about nature and sustainability–the fun way!
Originally from Boston, USA, I’ve been living in Germany since 2004–now, since early 2020, in Nidda-Stornfels (Hessen).
I’ve been teaching Nature and English for 20 years. I’m a trained biologist, an experienced nature/environmental educator and English language trainer. I’m also mother of three nearly grown-up, multi-lingual children and I love being outdoors. Nature and sustainability are the core topics of all of my course offers.
I really know what it’s like to struggle with mastering a foreign language. In addition to my own personal experience (learning Spanish and German), I studied language development and have been teaching English using the so-called CLIL approach–the most effective language-learning approach known.
English in Nature was designed for people of all ages who love nature and want to use and improve their English skills.
I can’t wait to meet you and discover more wonders of nature together while helping you to improve your English!
