Summer Vacation at Oxford International College

Kursbeskrivning

This programme offers communicative-based classes which cover a wide array of topics, aimed at inspiring students and immersing them in Oxford’s rich culture and academia; from traditional British etiquette, to leadership skills, to preparing and delivering an effective speech or presentation.

With a strong emphasis on authentic communication, the summer school programme delivers stimulating, relevant and learner-focused English tuition. 15 hours of tuition are included in this programme, plus 3 additional hours of Workshops.

Our carefully planned lessons take a communicative and task-based approach and cover a wide variety of topics. Often, they relate directly to activities and excursions which students will join during the programme.

Lessons will take place either in the morning or the afternoon. Students will know which group they are in at the start of their first week. Morning lessons are from 9:30 to 13:00 (with a 30 minute break), and afternoon lessons are from 14:00 to 17:30 (with a 30 minute break).

Classes are complemented by a wide and exciting array of social activities. For example, depending on the weekly social programme, students might visit the famous Christ Church College or beautiful Blenheim Palace, try punting on the River Thames, explore Oxford University’s many museums, or perhaps experience a classic British afternoon cream tea.
