Scuola Privata THE Oxford School OF English

What Scuola Privata THE Oxford School OF English does

Scuola Privata THE Oxford School OF English is a private language school headquartered in Romano di Lombardia, province of Bergamo, Italy. Founded in 2017, the school is led by Neville Jonathan Wynne, an Irish native English speaker, and teaches English as well as German, Spanish, and Dutch to individual learners (adults and teenagers), corporate clients, and exam candidates. The school is an Official IELTS Preparation Centre and a Cambridge ESOL Exam Preparation Centre, and runs a 7-level CEFR-aligned curriculum covering the full beginner-to-advanced proficiency range.

The course catalogue is structured around individual courses (50–70 hours), group courses (80 hours, capped at eight students), corporate on-site training, dedicated preparation for IELTS, Cambridge, TOEFL, TOEIC, and Trinity examinations, study-abroad programmes in the United Kingdom and Ireland, and translation services. Group delivery is deliberately small-format and instructor-led, with the school's competitive identity built around native-speaker teaching, certified exam-preparation status, and an internally developed teaching methodology rather than any software or AI platform. Online delivery has been added alongside the in-person classroom model.

The business operates on a one-time, pay-as-you-go course-fee basis, with no disclosed recurring subscription or licensing arrangement. The school is privately held and founder-owned, with reported headcount of approximately five employees. No external funding rounds have been disclosed. Go-to-market is digital and local, relying on the school website and social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, Twitter) combined with word-of-mouth in the Lombardy region, and no enterprise-customer logos or large-account case studies are public.
