Learning
Outline
Chemistry Cambridge summer school at Oxford Summer Courses for ages 13-15 years. Study Chemistry with Oxford Summer Courses. Study Chemistry with us, and you’ll explore theory from physical, organic, or inorganic chemistry and learn how to apply it in real life. From understanding behaviours such as rates of reaction, changes of state, and surface tension to looking at crystals, fossil fuels, and the periodic table. Commit to the central science and learn how the world around us connects on our insightful Chemistry course. Give life’s little mysteries some logical justification and discover how everything functions for an eye-opening journey while building a solid knowledge base that’ll equip you with the skills and practical experience needed to excel in this crucial field. Engage in a masterclass to acquire life skills like teamwork, debating, and collaboration through an interactive workshop led by on-course staff. Set and reflect on ambitious goals with the support of our staff and participate in a reflection session to review the goals set at the beginning of the Cambridge course and what you've learned so far.
Teaching methodology
Learning in a small group (no more than 8 students and often fewer) means that you get quality time with your teacher and ask as many questions as you like! Through interactive learning, our teachers will guide you through new concepts and assign you practice tasks to build your knowledge and skills. You will also have an opportunity for group work, independent research, and homework assignments to be discussed in class. Small classes mean everyone gets to have their say, and students learn from debating with one another, as well as from their tutor.
The Summer Courses experience
For the 13-15 age group, the Cambridge Summer Courses Experience is a dynamic blend of academic exploration, curriculum enrichment, and social and cultural engagement. In the academic realm, students engage in two lessons per day with their Cambridge summer school tutors, ensuring an interactive learning experience with a maximum class size of 8 students. Additionally, directed study sessions provide dedicated time to work on homework with on-course staff available for general assistance.
