Oxford Scholastica Academy review

"I spent the best summer of my life at Oxford Scholastica. Not only did I learn about business and entrepreneurship, but also valuable soft skills. Oxford Scholastica helped me discover more about the person I want to be and has encouraged me to pursue my dream career. I can strongly recommend this experience to everyone who wants to spend the summer of their life, meet awesome people from around the world, build friendships that will last a lifetime, and learn more about the career of their dreams.
