Learn English in Oxford

 

Enter Oxford's studious dream to learn English immersed and fascinated in the city with dreamy bells, with friLingue! Follow the dreamlike and formative wanderings of the young Alice in Wonderland and choose our language courses in Oxford, for young people from 15 to 17 years old.

 

Our partner school organises its language courses in a good way, because not only does it ensure that it provides and reinforces students' basic language skills, it also expands their scope by applying to active language projects. This allows students to streamline their English and apply it effectively in more immersive, expressive and practical projects. In quiet neighborhoods of Oxford, the school ensures friendly and committed teams in safe and elegant spaces.. As you walk through our vast green and wooded areas, just minutes from the center, you will leave, stimulated and cheerful, about your classes, activities and excursions. What better way to learn English while having fun with new friends from some 40 different countries?!

 

Our summer school is located just over an hour from London and its airports, and is also close to many places of interest, including the birthplace of William Shakespeare, Stonehenge, Bath, and the royal family among many others. It is a small cosmopolitan city, safe and ideal for spending the summer! The campus boasts:

  • Three large houses with separate areas for boys and girls
  • Excellent classrooms and facilities
  • Modern dining room, common rooms, meeting room
  • Easy playgrounds with heated outdoor pool

 

The excellent teacher-to-student ratio (1 to 8) is one of the main attractions for parents. The team is led by an experienced course director with the help of an activity director, a director of studies and a social services manager.

 

With the various specialised English courses, you are sure to find the formula that suits you! Do you want to seriously prepare for exams and gain autonomy in your learning? Then choose the "intensive English" course. Would you rather open up your language skills to the vast fields of artistic and scientific practice? We also have what you need, all armed with modern infrastructure and knowledgeable specialists! Or maybe you need a cultural immersion and an open mind to different problems and contemporary issues from design to architecture to science or the arts: in this case, it's is for the formula "interactive English" that must be chosen! 

 

In short, there is something for every taste and every colour! English is a living language and more open than ever to the practical issues and innovations of our contemporary world. We have rarely seen a better combination of classical and inventive than these language stays and courses!

Host family

Choosing the host family means making the choice to live with Oxford residents, eating, talking and sharing with them as a member of the family. It is an immersion in culture, and an extra serene opportunity to practice your English throughout the day. Each family is specially prepared to carry out this role.

This option is not possible for young participants and for participants following the Intereactive program)
 

Residence (mandatory for participants from 10 to 15 years old)

Learning to live with other students from around the world is, for many, the most valuable part of the experience:

  • Older children usually sleep in one room, while older children share larger rooms
  • Boys and girls are accommodated separately and staff members live in adjoining rooms, so there is always someone available day and night
  • We provide all linen and towels and there is a regular laundry service for personal items
  • We encourage students to keep their rooms tidy.
  • All meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner are taken together in the dining room of the school:
  • The menu is designed to be both healthy and nutritious with vegetarian options, plenty of fresh fruit and a salad bar
  • Packed lunches are provided when your child goes on an excursion
  • There is a small shop on the school campus for snacks at other times

The school requires a deposit for each student accommodated in its residence: £20 (for 10-15 years old) or £30 (15-17 years old)
