Academy Royale International Reviews
Reviews
Trusted by parents and students alike
I have never been to Oxford before, and now I love it. The buildings and the history are incredible. My favourite part has been the people. I have met so many people from all over the world, and I have made some lifelong friends.

Business, Innovation & Entrepreneurship
The classes were very different from school. We had the hands-on experiences that are really important for learning the subject and it's helped me decide what I want to do in the future.

Engineering
I chose to come to Academy Royale International because I wanted an adventure! I also wanted to explore university life, and learn more about the subject. I love the lessons here because the teachers make the lessons fun while teaching, lots of practical work.

Explore Engineering
In school, we mostly learn simpler topics, but these classes were different. The lessons went much more in depth, and I found them fascinating. If this is what university-level learning is like, I definitely want to go to university. I've really enjoyed the experience, and I hope university will be just like this.

There is no single alumni story. From technology and engineering to entrepreneurship and research, former students have taken their interests in many different directions.
Thibaut Monfort-Micheo - Co-founder, Flex-Sea
After studying materials engineering at Imperial College London, Thibaut co-founded FlexSea, where he works on innovative packaging made from seaweed-based materials. His summer introduced him to a different style of learning and helped confirm that he wanted to study in the UK.

From Academy Royale International to STEM Superstar
After attending Academy Royale International in 2016, studying Physics, Mathematics, and Academic Writing, Eleonora Svanberg returned to Sweden with newfound confidence, going on to intern at CERN, complete a Masters in Applied Mathematics at Cambridge, and found the non-profit Girls in STEM, now a nationwide organisation.
Today she's a published author and STEM influencer with 143k followers, pursuing a PhD in Theoretical Physics at Oxford's Magdalen College. "After my programme I felt like I could do anything," she says. Eleonora credits that first summer with giving her the courage to pursue every ambitious step that followed, including her return to Oxford.
