E10 Love/hate relationship with the University of Oxford... - British English podcast

English and Beyond: Intermediate to Advanced English Podcast

For the first time ever, I'm going solo on an episode of the podcast, where - on the strict instructions of César (who's on holiday with his family) - I'll be discussing the reality of the (in)famous University of Oxford.

I discuss myths and criticisms of Oxford, the notoriously intense admission process, and the demanding tutorial system which often drives so many Oxford alumni into the confrontational world of British politics. I also share some personal stories about academic pressure and the 'lively' social scene.

Tune in for a candid look at life at one of the world's most prestigious universities!
