Intensive English Course
Our Intensive English Course has been carefully designed to immerse our students in English Language studies while at the same time learning a great deal about Oxford and a variety of academic topics. We aim to help you achieve your goals in a realistic way as quickly as possible. Every day begins with an hour of functional English practise. Then General English follows to achieve monitored improvements in listening, reading, speaking and writing. Afternoon classes focus on a different specialised topic each week. From History and Architecture to Technology and Sustainable Development Goals; these are all delivered with Oxford in mind and as a context for your project work.

Functional English
Our Functional English lessons focus on practical skills you will use in everyday situations in an English-speaking environment. How do you ask for help in a shop or order politely in a restaurant? How do you express agreement or disagreement in a meeting or discussion? How do you make your point when writing?
General English
For the second 2 hours we work with a course book to enable you to improve the 4 main skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing as well as grammar and vocabulary.
Topical English
Afternoon classes are topic-based. You will be able to use all your skills. Topics vary and can be selected by the students. The class may also include videos, project work, conversation, and so on. Students often work towards a small presentation at the end of the week.
