For an educator to spend a week in Cambridge living the college life is already an invaluable experience per se. But to build a community with colleagues from different parts of the world and share similar problems and achievements is uplifting and reassuring.

My time in Sydney with Immerse has honestly been one of the best things I have ever done. I learnt so much from all the inspirational tutors who have motivated me to challenge myself academically.

The Immerse Education programme is a useful experience for both learning and personal career. I learned a lot, met new people, understood new concepts and most importantly I enjoyed it one hundred percent. You get an overview of many topics and realise the world behind what you don’t know about. In my opinion, this was the best choice I could ever make at this age.

I would absolutely recommend Immerse Education to other parents, especially those with children Quan’s age. It’s such a valuable experience, and the international environment adds another layer of richness. I haven’t found many other programmes with this level of diversity and cultural exchange.
Thu
Parent of Academic Insights student in Cambridge
It’s been a great experience for my daughter. Besides the academics, it’s encouraged her to be more independent. She’s had to navigate a new environment, meet people from all over the world, and manage without us right there. She did really well and didn’t need to text us constantly, which showed she was adjusting.
Alexander
Parent of Academic Insights student in Cambridge
It’s been great having university students and graduates as mentors. It’s given my daughter insights directly from people studying or teaching at Cambridge, rather than just remote instructors. This has been invaluable for her, and we can tell she’s been inspired by them. When we speak with her, we hear how much more confident and at ease she’s become.

Immerse's Female Future Leaders programme is an interdisciplinary course dedicated to helping young women explore leadership. It includes a range of subjects, from STEM to business and public speaking.The world’s demand for female leaders is increasing. The Frontiers in Psychology states that female leaders received praise for their outstanding leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic. Three women stand out: Angela Merkel of Germany, Jacinda Ardern Jacinda Ardern of New Zealand, and Tsai Ing-Wen of Taiwan. They received recognition because of the “care, empathy, and collaborative approach” they put forward.Researchers from the Universities of Leicester and Glasgow affirm that companies with more than 30% female executives were more likely to surpass companies with fewer female executives.Despite the data proving women’s leadership capabilities, they enjoy less pay and representation than men.
