OISE’s aim is to make a real difference to its pupils’ success in future life: in order to focus on this objective OISE offers young learners (14-17 years) a full day learning experience designed for maximum language learning. Our teaching philosophy for young learners is based on results-driven lessons in small groups of 8 students combined with interesting leisure activities and host family accommodation.
