Cursus beschrijving

The morning is divided into two parts and two teachers usually share the class. The course is designed to improve students’ abilities to use language accurately and fluently while concentrating on the skills of listening, reading, speaking and writing. The course is based on the most up-to-date methodology, course books and authentic materials.
The afternoon class concentrates on authentic spoken and written English using newspaper, magazine and video as well as the students’ own material in order to develop communication skills. Colloquial language, idioms and increased vocabulary will enable you to communicate effectively in real life situations. The main objective of the Intensive Course is to develop communication skills at an accelerated rate and improve your competence in using English in everyday social situations.

"The trip to Oxford was not only a way to improve English, but also to see the large world outside our home country for the first time."

Simona Petrovská, student van Tsjechische Republiek

In comparison with the way English is taught in the Czech Republic, the classes were way more focused on speaking and discussing, also we were able to be in a C1-level class which is an improvement because we could only study B1 in our country. We've had 2 teachers during our stay, both were very kind, approached us at an individual level and taught us many things. There was a bit of a disorganization issue involving buying and renting books.
The people around us were very open and friendly, so it wasn't difficult to approach other students. However, this isn't entirely true. The first week of our stay there was a group of maybe 20 Tchaiwanese students who wouldn't speak a word of English outside class, so we mostly avoided the common room that week as we didn't feel comfortable trying to engage in a conversation with them.
The thing we've enjoyed the most was definitely the school activities. During our stay, the activity leader of the school was mostly a young man who studied at the school earlier and then stayed longer to help the school. We've visited many great places in Wheatley and Oxford, we've seen the Pitt Rivers Museum and enjoyed punting, we've visited many historical places and strolled through the botanic gardens. At the weekend, we went to London for an entire day, it was amazing.
We were accomodated in a lovely house with a kind lady who made us delicious food and we had many great conversations together.

To conclude, we have had difficulty with money because the prices are three times as big in the UK as they are in our country, which is why we stayed for 2 weeks only, but we do not regret a single day. Some of the other students were surprised that we were there only for such a short time, but the fact is, the entire trip cost roughly 3 Czech monthly salaries. The classes were great, and the activities were even better. We have made quite a few friends from around the globe. It opened our eyes and we've gone out into the world for the first time. The stay was so good that we don't regret spending a single pound, that should tell you everything.

"A stimulating environment full of extremely talented people, yet really fun."

Francesco Lucchesi, student van Italië

I spent three weeks in Wheatley: I had an amazing time!
The teachers were all really competent, and the classes were generally balanced according to both multiculturalism and English level. Talking about the structure, the school has plenty of useful facilities which encourage students to get to know each other and spend their time together.
All in all, CES Oxford gives an excellent academic preparation and manages to create a strong sense of community among its students: thus, I would recommend everyone to attend a course there!

Thank you for this lovely review! The aim is that everybody leaves having had a fantastic time with us so it's really nice to get this feedback. Many thanks!

"The experience was good. Now, my listening and speaking is better."

Rosalía Laza Fidalgo, student van Spanje

My experience was fantastic, I'll repeat it (in two - three years). The family was very nice to both my son and I, we were well integrated and we shared many moments together.

In respect to the center, I think that the teachers are lovely, good teachers. I improved my listening and speaking. I'd like to improve grammar as I only took four lessons. Maybe I'd like more. I'd like to start a book and finish it and take a test and change to the next level. Perhaps the problem was a lot of students in the center.

But, it is a fantastic center with students of different nationalities, with an English family in the country. It requires you to speak and listen in English. I made new friends (teachers, students and host family).

Accommodation is carefully arranged by the school with local people, often within walking distance of the school.

Unless otherwise requested, accommodation is in single rooms which are always inspected to make sure they are suitable. The majority of our host families take only one student, but if there are two students with one family, they will be of different nationalities (except in the case of married couples or partners, and for some participants in closed group courses)

A few homestay providers are able to offer private bathroom facilities (at extra cost). However, this type of accommodation is in short supply and cannot be guaranteed at all times.

Breakfast and evening meals are provided during the week. Students can buy their weekday lunches at the local cafes and shops, or cook something for themselves in the student kitchen.
visa

Visa assistentie

We kunnen geen visas voor studenten aanvragen. De school kan u echter wel met alle benodigde documentatie voorzien die u nodig heeft voor uw visa aanvraag.

Indien u voor meer dan 11 maanden in de VK studeert, zult u een referentie nummer ontvangen genaamd Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) die u bij de VK ambassade in dient te leveren samen met uw Standaard Studenten Visa aanmeldingsformulier. Studenten die succesvol een talen cursus gereserveerd hebben en die hun kosten betaald hebben zullen een CAS van CES Oxford ontvangen. Let aub op dat UK wet aangeeft dat een CAS alleen aan studenten gegeven kan worden die Engelse taal studies willen gaan doen die meer dan 11 maanden duren.

Indien u voor 11 maanden of minder in de VK studeert, dient u een speciale bezoeker's visa aan te vragen genaamd Student Visitor Visa. Als student bezoeker, zult u niet in staat zijn part-time te werken terwijl u studeert. Indien u van plan bent om 11 maanden of minder in de UK te studeren, zal een acceptatiebrief naar u gestuurd worden tegen geen extra kosten.
