“
Ece and Doga,Students from Turkey

“I really enjoyed my time at Oxford. For two weeks, I felt as a student who studies there and in the end I was proud of myself for accomplishing so much in so little time. I would like to thank all of the people who were taking care of us. Also Nicola, our teacher, did everything she could to teach us everything and the topics we covered were so interesting and fascinating at the same time. I’ve learned so many details and information about Oxford history and I’m beyond content. Thank you so much for everything.”
