Focus of Study :
A language audit carried out by the Academic Manager and the tutors at the beginning of each course determines the precise level, needs and objectives of the participants.

• the tutor devotes 100% attention to the student
• teaching methods are adapted to the learning style of the student and the pace at which the student can successfully learn
• individual weakness and specific needs of the student are addressed
• the course is tailored to the student's study or career objectives
• students receive maximum talking practice
• no time is wasted covering points already known to the student or of no relevance

The course begin on any Monday of the year and finish on Friday afternoon. Students arrive on the Sunday before the start of the course and depart on the Saturday following the last day of the course. OISE Heidelberg offers intensive courses for universal communication, specific professional use and exam success. The course students choose can consist of a Quatorial programme (maximum of 4 students), a programme of only Tutorial (= individual) lessons (1:1) or a combination of Quatorials and Tutorials. Most programmes also include Spoken Performance Workshops and Masterclasses. The challenging programmes
are combined with an exciting after-class entertainment and a carefully chosen host family accommodation. This powerful combination of structured learning within the school and spontaneous language acquisition
outside ensures that students achieve their language learning ambition.
