Summer Courses for Young Adults

Far more than your average English Summer School...

Course Summary

All students follow a study programme tailored to their level of English and chosen career field. Our daily English language classes focus on developing authentic communication skills through role-plays and discussions. Each session is centred on practical, relevant topics and themes for teenagers. This approach equips you with practical language and communication skills that can be applied immediately to your extended study path.

Additionally, you can choose a career-based programme to develop core skills that will prepare you for your future career. Throughout the course, you’ll hear from guest speakers, participate in exciting excursions, and collaborate with students from around the world to complete a final project. These courses are fun, dynamic, and inspiring.

How You'll Learn

Our courses are designed to prepare you for adulthood by integrating innovative classroom learning with authentic real-world exposure. All our lessons are interactive and are full of lively discussions, debates, competitions and opportunities for you to practise what you learn. Studying in teams with other students from around the world will build your confidence when speaking English. Our team of dedicated, experienced trainers will open your minds to new ideas and concepts, developing your ability to think critically about the issues and ideas you explore. Each week, you will develop your collaboration skills and develop your independent learning while working together in groups to prepare for a challenge or project which you will present each Friday.

During the course you will hear from an expert guest speaker, who will inspire your interest in the subject through sharing their experiences and expertise. You will also take part in excursions related to your chosen course such as a company visit (Business Pioneers) or  a guided tour of the Houses of Parliament (Global Leaders). After your graduation ceremony on the last day of your course, you will hear another talk from an inspirational guest speaker to ensure that you return home with a fresh perspective on the world and your place in it.
