The Oxford Academia Teaching Fellows Program

The Oxford Teaching Fellows Program invites early-career teachers, administrators, and college counselors to step into one of the world’s most historic centers of learning and return home with fresh perspective, practical insight, and clear strategies for teaching and community building.

Hosted at Corpus Christi College, The University of Oxford, Fellows live and learn within the collegiate university while engaging deeply with Oxford’s academic culture as a cohort of scholars. Running concurrently with Oxford Academia’s high school programs, Fellows gain private access to Oxford spaces, conversations, and traditions, while intentionally connecting scholarship with classroom practice.

Through curated visits and guided discussions, Fellows explore current research and pedagogy shaping the future of education. They meet with Rhodes Scholars at Rhodes House, examine rare manuscripts in the Christ Church special collections, and learn directly from Oxford faculty—including a seminar on American history with historian Adam Smith, President of the Rothermere American Institute.

The program also looks forward, preparing Fellows for the everchanging realities of education. Fellows join panels with emerging scientists, explore the role of artificial intelligence in education, and gain hands-on experience in building strong learning communities alongside Oxford Academia’s residential life team. Throughout, Fellows translate Oxford’s traditions and innovations into concrete approaches for their own classrooms, schools, and counseling practices.
