You will have four 45 minute classes each morning, Friday to Tuesday.

We select only qualified and experienced teachers who are able to adapt the classes according to the language learning needs of their students, so that you get the best teaching, and make the most progress possible in the time you are with us.
We provide a full range of levels, from Elementary to Advanced.

Afternoon and Evening Enrichment Options
In the afternoons, we provide a full range of Enrichment Options. Depending on the preferences of the students, this could include a visit to a Shakespeare play, or a country pub, a cream tea and a visit to a famous country house, or a musical concert – or one of many other different cultural opportunities in and around Oxford. The purpose of these Enrichment Options is to give you the chance to use English in a natural setting – such as ordering drinks in the pub – and to sample the amazing range of English culture in the company of a teacher with local knowledge to take you to all the best places.

English for Juniors & English for Young Adult Programmes
Separately from our English and Culture courses, we also provide programmes for Junior (12-15 years old) and Young Adult (16+) students. These programmes are ideal for children of parents attending our English and Culture courses, and are also perfect for children travelling alone.
For further details, go to the Junior or Young Adult pages, or contact us.

You can download a PDF page with this information from the Brochure page of this site.

NB: The English and English Culture course is not eligible for British Council accreditation.
It is delivered to our same high standards, but we do not wish to imply that this is an accredited course.
