Overview

Academic Summer will help you achieve your personal best through our exciting learning programs.  If you are aged +15 the AS experienced and inspiring teachers will give you an Academic Summer to remember.  Learn about your favorite subjects, develop life-changing study skills and prepare for your future by giving yourself a competitive edge.  We know that not everyone learns in the same way whether you are a visual, auditory, or kinaesthetic learner we have a teaching style that will suit you and bring your learning to life.

If English is not your first language, there is no better way to improve than through our teaching methodology – CLIL – Content and Language Integrated Learning.   We integrate content  (academic subject matter) and language development following the IB’s liberal approach to learning.  Discovery and exploration are more highly valued than simply learning content. You will develop your competence in the communicative use of English as an international language whether you are a native or non-native speaker of English.

The goal is that every student that goes to Academic Summer finds a love for education that will stay with them for life.

There are 2 campuses:

  • London city center
