Testimonial

Discover what the kids and parents have to say about their life-changing experiences on our Cambridge tour.

The activities in this tour were unique. I am so grateful for talking with Cambridge Professors and students. I got information about Cambridge in more depth. Cambridge lab visit was wonderful. All the experiments were interesting and educational. The kids were so excited and enjoyed the experiments.

It was a precious experience for Adrian to present in front of Professor. Adrian's presentation is improving. He was so honored to get Professor's written feedback. We had some very good exposure both to the University and the places. Formal dinner in Clare College was one of our memorable experiences. It was definitely a tour that we will never forget.

Karston is fall in love the study method and the environment in Cambridge/ UK after joining this Cambridge Study Tour.

For the kids, this experience inspire him not only fall in love in science and engineering, but also strive to achieve his new goal - being a Cambridge student in 10 years later.For parent, this trip can give us the clear picture of Cambridge and make me feel Cambridge University is NOT too far away.

Not only adults can make good decisions for kid’s education planning, as children like Karston can do that as well.

After Jonah took the Big Bang course, he learned how to independently complete projects. He was also inspired during the Cambridge exchange program. We decided to continue this learning method and transfer Jonah from traditional school to an international school.

I want to study chemistry and biology at Cambridge University in the future.My favorite biology topic is about the human body because it's interesting how the brain produces electricity for the body. pH values and the periodic table of elements are also fascinating!

I think the most unique thing in the professor's laboratory is the 'pure oxygen tank'. When I asked Professor why he likes chemistry, he said it's because a Periodic Table can explain so many things!
