Alexandra, Greece

"The course at Oxford Summer Courses gave me an insight into how to make arguments in support of or against certain positions, which is useful in Law. The tutor assisted me in how to structure these arguments during my summer school."

Alexandra , USA

"The best thing about the Medicine course at Oxford Summer Courses was the interactivity of the lectures. My tutor was really interested in the subject, so I always felt like I could go up to her and ask her questions, whether they were about what we were learning in the summer school or about other areas of biotechnology."

Allysa, USA

"The teachers at Oxford Summer Courses summer school are very inclusive, and the teaching groups are small. It is also refreshing to see everyone in the class as passionate as I am."
