Location: Oxford International Education Junior Centre - UC Berkeley is located in the San Francisco Bay area, in the city of Berkeley, across the bay from San Francisco. UC Berkeley is the oldest campus of the University of California and repeatedly ranks among the top public universities in the United States. Berkeley is a smaller city next to the larger city of Oakland. It has a reputation as one of the most progressive cities in the country.

The programme: The summer camp for teens at Oxford International Education Junior Centre - UC Berkeley includes tuition, accommodation, meals, activities and excursions. Morning English lessons are followed by activities and outings in the afternoon and evening, and at least one full-day excursion per week. Students are housed in double rooms with shared washrooms in a university residence. Meals are taken in the on-campus dining facilities.

Social and cultural: In addition to language tuition, Oxford International Education Junior Centre - UC Berkeley summer programmes include a full agenda of activities and outings, as well as at least one full-day excursion each week. Excursions and outings on the programme can include a tour of Silicon Valley, a trip to the infamous Alcatraz Island, a boat cruise around San Francisco Bay, visits to Chinatown or Little Italy, a day trip to the beach at Santa Cruz and of course, a visit to the Golden Gate Bridge.

Getting there: The UC Berkeley campus is closer to the airport in Oakland (OAK) than it is to San Francisco International Airport (SFO), though both are fine options for international arrival. Travel time from the Oakland airport is approximately half an hour while San Francisco’s airport is a good 50 minutes away. To reach downtown San Francisco from the campus, it takes about 35 minutes by public transportation.

The evaluations by students after they complete a course is excellent. The discount for using your website is also a great incentive. It also would be wonderful if the website would include more cities and a bigger selection of schools in each city.
Basil Havens verified client
The service of languagecourse.net is great, I booked already 3 schools and I can highly recommend it. In fact, I tell everybody I meet on my journey in South America about this website and how well everything is organized.
Gabriele Ragger verified client
I am very satisfied. I found more/relevant information on your webpage than on the school's website itself. It is the cheapest offer. I'm going to book my next course on your site soon.
