Weekly 'live-time' classes

Our 'live time' weekly classes are offered in two formats.
- In-person: teaching takes place at Ewert House in Summertown or at Rewley House in central Oxford. Courses are 5, 10 or 20 weeks in duration.
- ‘Online – live’ (also known as Weekly Oxford Worldwide, or WOW): taught completely online, enjoy live, interactive tutor-led online sessions weekly, along with prerecorded lectures and course materials. Each course has 6, 11 or 21 meetings, which includes an introductory meeting to introduce you to the online platform.
Please note: enrolments may close up to one week prior to the start date of the course. We recommend you book early to avoid disappointment.
