A unique lifetime experience!
Special Oxford Homestay is an exclusive home, learning and culture experience aimed at international school and university students, tourists and business professionals. Developed by an experienced English language teaching professional, it combines the comfort of a special homestay with tuition in English, social excursions and British cultural experiences – and of course, the attractions of Oxford, a world famous, cosmopolitan city steeped in history and culture.
Weekend/Weekly English courses (also intensive IELTS)
Special Oxford Homestay is managed by Heather Krobok, who is also your main teacher as well as your host. This personalised service means that packages can be tailored to individual needs and interests, with homestays varying in length from only three nights to three weeks or more. And, if you so wish, you can take lessons with Heather and stay in alternative accommodation to the homestay.
Creative, stimulating and enjoyable English lessons
One of the particularly special and maybe unique aspect of learning English with Heather is that she takes pride in being very creative in the delivery of her lessons so it is more enjoyable for the student…..consequently, for the general English courses, do not be surprised to be learning English out of the class room and in a supermarket, shop or café!! Also, Heather is particularly patient and understanding with those students who do not find it easy to learn English and all students can choose the pace of the lesson – to work intensively or in a relaxed manner. However, her examination classes are focussed and there is an option for students to take an intensive weekend or 3 day course for examinations like IELTS (her specialism).
Business English courses are also available and particularly interesting and effective as Heather’s previous career was in Marketing and Public Relations for a variety of international companies and organisations.
