”ISSOS is a great summer school where you make lots of good friends. Super summer school during which you will learn a lot about your friends and yourself!“ Laurent Gillespie-Smith

“We work together, we play together, we live and grow together, we are the ISSOS International Family.”

Our Story

OS

ISSOS was started with one clear mission: To create a safe place for people to learn and grow. In 2005, ISSOS was established by Jen Munro, a St Andrews University Graduate, who after working as a summer camp counselor in the USA, realised she wanted to provide students from all over the world, with a balanced summer program.

St Andrews was the obvious choice for the first summer school due to its safe location and historical setting. The first session of ISSOS took place in 2006, with 50 students. In 2011, with growing demand, ISSOS Cambridge was launched. This year has seen the launch of the third summer school at the prestigious Yale University in the USA. Students have always been at the heart of everything ISSOS does and we have listened to feedback from students and parents to

develop all aspects of the company, fast becoming recognised as one of the top International summer schools.

ISSOS has grown significantly since 2005, attracting students from over 70 nationalities and catering to over 600 students. Every year, students and staff talk of ISSOS as being a family, and that’s what we’re looking to develop and maintain: an international family where friendships span the world.

ISSOS is a values-led company and has a core set of values that run through everything we do. One of our most important assets is our people and we endeavour to find the best people to work with us every year. As we grow, we are committed to offering the highest level of service and quality product. It is imperative that whilst doing this, we have fun, making sure everyone associated with ISSOS, has The Experience of a Lifetime.

This is my third year working for ISSOS Cambridge as an English teacher, and I really can’t imagine spending my summer working anywhere else. I have been working in Bydgoszcz, Poland as an English and a Foreign Language teacher for two years and I am moving to Italy to continue teaching in September. I love working at ISSOS for so many reasons. Firstly the students. It’s amazing for me on a personal level to be teaching in a classroom full of different nationalities. It brings a completely new dynamic to the lessons and challenges me as a teacher to adapt to the needs of different language learners. This year I have centred my lessons around current social issues such as: the contributors to global warming, the refugee crisis, perceptions and stereotyping and companies brand identities, to encourage students to become confident in discussing complex issues in their second language. The multi-national classroom means students get to share and listen to opinions they (and I) would otherwise never be exposed to. Having only one small class to focus on, means teachers can really get to know their students and tailor the lessons to their needs. It never ceases to amaze me how mature the students are and how aware they are of current affairs.

Another reason I enjoy working at ISSOS is the staff. It’s been said many times before but ISSOS is a family. There are many returning members of staff at ISSOS Cambridge, so coming back to work each summer is like coming back to a second home.

Staff stay in touch and meet up throughout the year and genuine friendships are made over the few weeks spent here each summer. The induction days mean the staff know each other really well by the time the students arrive, so that hopefully, students feel they are coming into a welcoming, close knit community.

I can’t talk about the family element of ISSOS without mentioning the clans. Although as a Munro I am mainly on the side lines for clan events, they are still one of my favourite parts of ISSOS. There is nothing like competition to bring students together as a team. The loyalty and passion the students show to their clans is great. Not only do the clans help students to socialise outside their classes and counselor groups, the events running throughout the students’ time at ISSOS, teach them to support one another and importantly about having great spirit.

Each summer I’ve spent at ISSOS has been unique and I couldn’t ask for a better setting than Cambridge to spend my summer working.

Variety ShowSabrina Webster, Teviot Counselor

Counselor Fashion ShowChloe A. Hall, Forth Counselor

Masked under the theme of ‘cartoon characters,’ the counselors donned a variety of face paint, wigs and of course accessories - all of which were carefully chosen by their delightful and highly creative students.

At first the show seemed set in Springfield as we met Homer (Fergus) and Marge (Claire) Simpson, who were fully equipped with doughnuts and had clearly practiced their accents! Much to everyone’s horror however, Cinderella appeared twice and strutted her (His!) stuff in true tradition ball gown style and then reappeared in her ‘summer wear!’ To rid our minds of such sights, Sonic the Hedgehog speedily swept down the catwalk. If that wasn’t enough, we then had a three minion assault, with one purple minion trying to outdo the others! Further highlights included, our very own Pek-a-tuce (Stacey), not to mention Pop-Eye and TinTin. To lighten spirits after an appearance from Ursula the sea witch, fun time guy Johnny Bravo stole the hearts of the ladies in the audience. The cutest and bluest smurf paraded around but this was promptly followed by an outstanding performance from Kim Possible, who cartwheeled her way to victory with ease!

Clearly we had the time of our lives and everything seemed awesome. Next up, our talented teachers chose movie themes, and dressed our counselors up once again from Dirty Dancing, Titanic and the Lego Movie! A dramatic dance manoeuvre was safely executed, a few tears shed over Jack and Rose and ultimately complete chaos ensued as the lego heads tried to feel their way around the stage!

Much fun was had by all and the counselors would like to thank their students for all their efforts.

How many years have you attended ISSOS?This is my second year at ISSOS, I attended ISSOS St Andrews last year.

Why did you choose to come back to ISSOS?One of the main things I remember from last year was once I got home, I wanted to be straight back at ISSOS and within a week I was signed up for the following summer!

What will you always remember about ISSOS?I will always remember the friends I have made. I've already met up with three of my friends from my first year at ISSOS, one of whom is one of my closest friends now - even though we live in different countries.

I will also remember the counselors who were like our older brothers and sisters and the clan events were always a lot of fun (Stewart for the win!).

What are your plans for the future?I would like to study science in the UK once I start University.

ISSOS News

True to its name, this year’s Variety Show was an evening of diverse performances. From singing to bottle-flipping, the audience was treated to some of the summer school’s finest talent.

First, Counselor Rachel’s dancers delivered a high-energy performance of Uptown Funk. They had been working on the routine for most of the three weeks, and their efforts really paid off. Later in the evening, another of Rachel’s dance groups took to the stage to perform Run the World. Not only did these two dances demonstrate faultless choreography, but natural talent of all the girls (and boy!) involved. These were not the only dance acts of the evening, as three Skye ‘The Elite’ boys donned some very flattering sumo suits and showed-off their struts to LMFAO’s Sexy and I Know It. This act was particularly popular with the audience, as the three boys were very creative with their outfit choices!

Showing the diversity of culture here at ISSOS, we also saw Habib and Tamera singing and dancing to a mix of well-known Lebanese songs. This really got the audience going, and it was fantastic for the performers to share a piece of Lebanon with everybody. Changing the tone, Faraj wowed everybody with a piano medley.

He played Comptine d’un Autre Ete, The Minute Waltz and Nocturne OP 902 perfectly. The audience listened intently and were so impressed by Faraj’s talent; he was even called for an encore! A piano wasn’t the only instrument on the ISSOS stage, as Sose demonstrated her skills on the Ukelele during two performances. As well as a spectacular solo performance, Khadija joined Sose on stage for a special collaboration. Another musical talent came from Joanna, whose impeccable rendition of Titanium was a joy to watch.

Stepping away from the musical performances, Lauchlan and Ronald had a Bottle-Flip-off. This was a challenge some members of the audience had never seen before, where Lauchlan and Ronald took turns to flip a bottle of water so that it landed upright. It was very tense! After several attempts – some successful! – Lauchlan was announced the winner.

The evening ended with a spectacular performance by our very own English teacher Dougie. Along with showing-off his natural pizzazz, Dougie also showed us he is a very talented pianist.

All in all, it was a fantastic evening of both variety and talent.

Highland GamesClan NewsThe final day of ISSOS brings together the four clans who take part in the ISSOS Highland Games, a day of healthy competition, good sportsmanship and a lot of clan spirit. The whole summer school takes part and the event is umpired skillfully, by the Munro Clan.Going into the competition in first place were the Wallace Clan with a lead over the others, but Stewart were hovering closely in second position.

Each clan was separated into divisions, Braveheart, Freedom, Highland and Nessie. The four divisions all took part in both a selection of mini games, the infamous Danish Longball and some relay races. All clans worked tirelessly, pushing themselves to their athletic best and getting involved in all that was thrown at them.

After the scores were finally tallied, all students attended the closing dinner to hear the announcement of the Clan Cup Winner. The Spirit Shield was also given out to the Clan who had expressed the greatest amount of sportsmanship and had provided lively chants at each clan event over the previous three weeks. In the end, the Clan Cup was awarded to Wallace and the Spirit Shield to the MacDonald Clan.

“Clan events take pride of place at ISSOS and promote and create friendships and memories that last a lifetime.“

One of the many unique aspects of ISSOS is our Clans. Staying true to our Scottish roots ISSOS invites students into one of four clans; MacDonald, MacGregor, Wallace or Stewart. This is done at the Clan Calling, on one of the first evenings at ISSOS. Once assigned to a clan, students remain as part of that clan for their time at ISSOS, even when they return the following year, they will always be in the same clan as will their brothers or sisters if they too, come to ISSOS.The clans are an integral and very important part of the ISSOS experience, they exist to promote good sportsmanship, communication, healthy competition and help to bond students from all different nationalities and ages as well as build confidence.

Clans compete over the three weeks in a variety of competitions including; Danish Long Ball, Mini Olympics, Urban Orienteering, Dodge Ball, Sandcastle Building and many more activities, in order to gain points for their Clan.

The Munro clan – the impartial clan made up of the teachers, head counselors and Program Director, oversee all the events, ensuring the games are played fairly. Clan events culminate in the final days of ISSOS with the Highland Games where one clan wins the coveted Clan Cup.

ISSOS Citizenship AwardISSOS began giving out a citizenship award after the second summer in 2007 when we had a student who stood out as an incredible role model and embodied everything that ISSOS stands for.We decided then that we would like to honour such a student, but that this was not a prize that would be given out every session, only if there was a genuinely deserving student. Every summer, all staff nominate a student and if the vote is unanimous, the award is given to that student at the final creative night surrounded by an audience of their peers.

We were delighted to award the citizenship prize at ISSOS, Cambridge to Julius Reiss. Lisa Grant our Program Director, who presented Julius with the prize said “Julius is a charming, young man who has involved himself in all aspects of ISSOS and is a great role model and a true gentleman.” Well done Julius, we are so proud to have students like you at ISSOS.

What is the ISSOS citizenship award?The citizenship award recognises an individual who represents the very essence of what ISSOS stands for. It is awarded to a person who not only participates in the majority of activities but also excels and invigorates those activities with energy and a positive attitude, a person that mixes with students of different ages and nationalities and shows themselves to be a good role model to others. This is a student that displays good manners and engages in both academic and elective classes.

This award is given for character and attitude and to an individual who has shown respect for friends, staff and all that ISSOS stands for and who naturally exemplifies the values of ISSOS. This student displays leadership qualities and is not always the loudest or most obvious student.

To study journalism is to choose to learn a skill that is rewarding, but never, ever easy. As such, students who chose to study journalism are a very special group indeed. In my first year teaching Journalism at ISSOS, I was gifted with a class of curious and determined students who harnessed their enthusiasm to work wonderfully productively as a team and master every challenge I could throw at them.

Students spent a week honing their reporting and writing techniques, each discovering unique and thought-provoking stories in Cambridge. During our second week, we explored narrative feature writing, photojournalism, and more advanced research skills, as well as exploring multimedia reporting using audio and video. Our class blog, Voices of ISSOS, covered news and feature stories at ISSOS in real time, as well as showcasing students’ exceptional work.

On the last Sunday of ISSOS Cambridge as final classes were fast approaching, it was now time for the twenty-five students from Business and Entrepreneurship to shine and show the summer school what they had been working on for the last three weeks. The teams had been working hard to bring together their ideas and consider finances, marketing, competitors, business models and team structures for their businesses. Five teams pitched their solutions for world problems in front of a panel of four fierce Dragon Investors and their fellow students. Josh the boss Leon (Photography teacher), Chloe ginger spice Ambrose (Media Manager), Lisa don’t mess with this Canadian Grant (Program Director) and Miss Lucy’s alter ego Lucy design is my middle name Robertson (Business and Entrepreneurship teacher) all carefully considered where to invest their skills expertise and millions of pounds. The teams addressed food waste, lost baggage and charging your phone on the go. After answering quick fire questions from the Dragons and audience, three teams received the investment they required. Team ‘Fooder’ who had developed an app and website to tackle food waste delivered a smooth pitch and were voted the winner by audience vote.

On top of preparing for this final pitch, the Business and Entrepreneurship class also took on the Micro-Tyco challenge. Teams of five students were given £1 at the beginning of the three weeks and used their entrepreneurial thinking to make as much money as they could. Students charged phones, provided a laundry service, delivered shopping and even collected food trays from counselors at the dinner tables. As a class they made £298.25 from the initial £5. This money will now be invested through Wild Heart foundation’s microfinance program to companies in developing countries, helping people work their way out of poverty. All in all a very busy summer school of the Business and Entrepreneurship class and a very entertaining Dragon’s Den evening to showcase their hard work.

With twenty-five students from eighteen countries, our class was a bubbling hub of ideas and energy, writing on the impact of Brexit, exploring the experience of students away from home during frightening world events, and discussing the perils of Cambridge’s famous punting.

Each student completed a local news story, a photo essay, and a multimedia feature, as well as contributing to our ISSOS news coverage.

The much anticipated final debate was a culmination of all the hard work that the Cambridge debate students put in.

The students all worked to hone their skills working with teachers Kitty and Bas, learning the skills of logical analysis and seeing the world from different points of view. Eventually after many controversial and insightful debates, the eight best speakers were chosen to debate the final motion: “This house would only imprison people convicted of violent crimes”.

The debate was held in the beautiful halls of St John’s College where the motion was deliberated. As chairman, Gorgio did a great job presenting the motion and the speakers. In opening government we had Ioanna, as Prime minister, setting the terms of the debate and exposing the problem. Myself, Andrei was appointed Deputy Prime minister, turning up the heat with a passionate and explosive speech. In opening opposition we had Kian, as Leading Opposition, with sharpened and pointed arguments. Khadijah then brought back the debate with a different perspective on her side. In closing government we had a new layer of sizzling debate thanks to Izzy’s skills and Max putting the cherry on top with his hilarious Hannah Montana quotes.

Finally in closing, Juan and Nazirin executed some brilliant verbal combat that was much enjoyed by the audience.

Final Night Debate Andrei Krauss - ISSOS Student

The debate was then opened up to the audience who had some very insightful comments and ideas regarding the motion. All the speakers were brilliant, the judges (Ben Adams and Hannah Cogan) and student judges (Ella, Bianca, and Lucie) had a hard time concluding who should win. In the end, Juan and Nazirin were awarded the win by a unanimous decision.

Congratulations to all the students for their hard work and dedication for all the brilliant debates and also a thank you to Bas and Kitty for guiding us through the minefield of debating!

While the Outdoor Leadership course at ISSOS is full of fun activities like kayaking, sailing and raft building, lessons are carefully designed to teach and build leadership qualities throughout these lessons. In addition to working on teamwork and communicating under ‘stressful’ and ‘competitive’ pressures during these engaging water activities, the outdoor leadership class also offers various other opportunities for students to lead different size groups and tackle different types of challenges. Most good leaders will tell you that while leadership theory and education is important, practicing and experiencing leadership is often what creates the best leaders; practice and experience is exactly what the Outdoor Leadership class at ISSOS offered its students.

HAPPY, HOPEFUL and with HEEPS of energy is what a finalist might feel in the last round of ‘HA HO HEE' - the ultimate 2016 ISSOS theatre game! Awaiting future selection for Olympic sport, we are ready with the world champions.

The last few weeks have been fantastic, to see such a dynamic group of performers working together with such a varied experience of theatre and at different stages of learning to work in a new language, has been inspiring. We have worked on introducing methods for generating drama; physical theatre, writing monologues, working with poetry

The photography elective at ISSOS allows students to fully immerse themselves in the creative process for the duration of their stay. Catering for a range of experiences, from beginners who have never touched a camera, to experienced amateurs who want to refine and perfect their image making skills. The course aims to utilise the strengths of the safe and contained area in and around Queens’ college, and allow students as much creative exploration as possible.

In my photography class, I focus on building students to a competent technical level as quickly as possible. After this, students are then able to delve deeper into the more complex and contemporary concerns of photography. They are taught to read and understand imagery, consider their subject matter, and challenge themselves. However, formal elements aside, my main goal when it comes to my lessons is to teach students to see the value in their own imagery.

Students learned and practiced brainstorming ideas, narrowing down ideas in a way that respects everyone’s contributions, picking teams varying in size and ability, strategising to reach their goals, and doing this all with the most courtesy, respect for others, and composure as possible. From organising a sports lesson, to raising money for a charity event (over £180 in one hour!), Outdoor Leadership students consistently took the independence and responsibility given to them and exceeded even the highest expectations. Taking it one step further, students volunteered (completely on their own) to put their leadership skills to the test during an evening activity by organising all 150 students at ISSOS Cambridge into letters to spell out ‘ISSOS’ in huge letters that

and collaborating with the photography students. Much of the training is focused on body and voice to encourage individual actor development and confidence in communication. ‘When you know what you do, you can do what you want!’ Leading up to ‘Creative Night’ the group formed a brilliant sense of ensemble and it has been a pleasure to work with them as I would any professional theatre company. I wish you all the very best for the future! Go for it!

In my experience, they are all talented and enthusiastic individuals, and often it only takes a small nudge to push them in incredible directions.

This is my second year at ISSOS Cambridge, and I can honestly say that I am just as impressed with the quality of the work produced as I was the first time around. As always, at ISSOS, every single student in my class is eager, open minded, and hugely capable. This summer school continues to prove it can provide a summer to remember for both staff and students alike.

A Stepping Stone to UniversityEvery summer we have students who are interested in applying to some of the world’s top universities and this year has been no exception. ISSOS is proud to have amongst its staff members, a number of graduates from the UK’s top ten universities and a number from universities around the world who are happy to share their experiences and memories with interested students.Many students attending ISSOS have started to think about what university they may wish to attend and throughout the year, we receive emails and phone calls to ask our advice on which university to apply to for specific subjects or the entry requirements for some universities. With this in mind we decided to offer a university admissions workshop to answer any questions students may have and talk them through writing a personal statement, applying to UK, European or US based universities and what admissions departments are looking for.

The workshop was delivered by Eileen Penman, a professional college and university consultant with many years experience working with some of the best schools and universities in the world.Eileen advised students on how to apply to UK, American and European universities and ran a workshop on how to write a good personal statement. The feedback from students was fantastic and many have said they now feel more prepared and excited about applying to university.

Although ISSOS is a summer program, we do not believe that our responsibility to students ends when the summer ends. We are dedicated to assisting students who wish to apply to a Scottish orUK based university or who wish to interview at a British Boarding school. We endeavour to assist our students in any way we can.

Tennis Review Stacey Batchelor, Strathy Counselor

In rain or shine, around forty ISSOS students completed three hours of tennis, four days a week. With a highly qualified coaching team they were ready to take on the challenge.

Students were separated into beginner, intermediate and advanced according to their previous experience. Each session would involve a number of tasks to improve specific skills, such as timing and positioning on court. Additionally, the three hours consisted largely of match play against various opponents.

These lessons were planned in preparation of the final tournament, which took place in the third week of ISSOS. Students had an opportunity to competitively challenge others of a similar level and higher. From this tournament, the coaches noticed the vast improvement from all the students and congratulated them on their enthusiasm and commitment throughout their lessons.

The ISSOS tennis students of 2016 showed great talent and dedication to the sport. Well done to all those who took part and congratulations for completing such a high intensity elective.

Fencing Review Calvin Dunbar, ISSOS Student

Prior to my experience at ISSOS, I had never fenced before and therefore, like many other people who have not fenced, believed that you used a sword and you could swing it around. However this is not the case; the 'sword' is called a foil and your aim is to use a forward thrust motion to hit people rather than swipe them.

Not only did I learn this at ISSOS, but I also learned how to attack, defend and how to position my body properly. Fencing requires a lot of hard work due to the heavy equipment, yet with fun lessons and enthusiastic coaches, the 3 hours a day flew by. To show our new skills, we set our goal to pass our bronze fencing award, which many of us did.

I was very proud of this as it showed me how much I had learnt in the short period of time.

To finish our time, we had a fun, yet competitive tournament to decide who the ISSOS Cambridge fencing champion would be. I, along with my peers, thoroughly enjoyed fencing and would love to do it again.

“ I believe that by attending this workshop, it has given me an advantage over other candidates, because of the excellent advise we received from the university applications expert. All in all, ISSOS does not only improve you as a student, but also a person, by broadening our mental horizons.”
