In the summer school, students can take classes directly in the classrooms of their own school, enjoy the same teaching resources as students of their own school, and are taught by their own teachers! This not only allows students 100% to immerse themselves in campus culture, but also allows them to establish contact with teachers at the school and even have the opportunity to obtain letters of recommendation from teachers to prepare for overseas education. The rich experience of Phillips Exeter College Summer School also adds personal characteristics to the application. At the same time, you can get to know outstanding students from all over the world, communicate in English, and be exposed to professional English expressions.
