We like to make a fuss of our students here in Oxford and we make extra fuss over our long term students, who are with us on the BSC journey and become so familiar over the months and years. It is so difficult to say our goodbyes when they finally leave.

Today we sadly say goodbye to Natalia who has been with us for one year and seven months! That amounts to 83 study weeks in total.

She has seen more changes here at BSC Oxford than most of us.

Natalia came to us from Colombia via an agency. She booked a general English course on a 9 month student visa, and she was able to extend her visa a further 7 months. In her time spent studying with us she has progressed from intermediate level to completing both the IELTS and CAE advanced courses.

This is a great achievement, and we are so proud of her.

Today she leaves with her course achievement, good memories, many new international friends, and a positive experience.

We will miss you Natalia – you are a legend!
