Adela Jung Foncillas
AGE: 17
SCHOOL: FES Lörrach
COURSE: Experience Psychology & Neuroscience Academy
Oxford Scholastica has given me the confidence to determine my own future. I learned to step out of my comfort zone and try incredible new things, even when they seemed scary at first. I've also had the amazing opportunity to build a network of kind and open-minded people, all from different countries.

Alfonso Feris
AGE: 16
SCHOOL: Colegio Los Pininos
COURSE: Experience Engineering Academy
One thing I have learned at Oxford Scholastica is how to become better at making new friends. I am usually regarded as an introverted person, but here, in less than two weeks, I have made friends as close as brothers. I am sure our friendship will last a lifetime!

Juanita Sele-Matthew
AGE: 15
SCHOOL: Meadowhall School
COURSE: Experience Business & Enterprise Academy
Oxford Scholastica has taught me to always reach for the stars. The programme has really opened my eyes to what I want my life to look like. I've learned academic skills but also social and emotional skills, like how to network, how to live away from home and how to make new friends.

Pippa Manning
AGE: 17
SCHOOL: Nottingham Girls High School
COURSE: Experience Medicine Academy
I have found the classes so insightful and interesting and have learnt more about Medicine than I ever have in school, as well as new topics I had never considered. I'm sure this knowledge will be invaluable in my application to medical school and it has made me feel much more confident in my own abilities.

Shanaya Ailsinghani
AGE: 15
SCHOOL: GEMS Dubai American Academy
COURSE: Experience Medicine Academy
I have benefitted a lot from Oxford Scholastica. I have developed my social skills, especially learning how to interact with others outside of a formal setting like school, and gained a lot of confidence. The programme has also given me much more clarity about my potential future career options.
