Bucksmore, St Hilda's College, Oxford for 13-18 year olds

Bucksmore's Intensive English aims to build strong fluency and enhance English oral and written communication skills through a fun and dynamic language curriculum.

Students study 25 hours of Intensive English per week to develop their English skills through a variety of engaging sessions, including academic tutorials, group projects, conversation classes, and hands-on excursions that take learning outside the classroom.

The course also builds strong interpersonal skills such as teamwork, creativity, and confidence through project-based learning and mentorship.

Student progress is tracked and assessed at the end of each course by Bucksmore Assessment, an evaluation tool developed in alignment with the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) scale.

Every Bucksmore Education programme is carefully designed to provide fun and educational excursions that allow students to further their studies outside of the classroom. Whether this may be a ride on the London Eye taking in the spectacular sights of Central London, a private tour of various Cambridge or Oxford Universities, or a coordinated sports session on site, our social programme will engage and absorb students into British culture and heritage, guarantee long-lasting friendships and offer plentiful opportunities for students to improve their English in real-life settings. The excursions will promote communication skills for the students, testing their English language skills with each other and with members of the public.
