“Reel” Immerse success stories

Trusted by parents

Academic Insights: Parent’s Perspective Video

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.

Jie

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

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

Communication from Immerse was excellent, both to me and to my daughter Evelyn. We received a welcome pack detailing what she would need to be ready, which eased the anxiety of travelling from Hungary to attend. I hadn’t been to Cambridge myself before, so it became part of the adventure for both Evelyn and me.

Michael

Parent of Academic Insights student in Cambridge

The programme has had a big impact on my daughter. A few days ago, she sent us a video, saying, “I’m going to be a doctor; I know my blood type and DNA!” Neither my husband nor I are in medicine, so seeing her dedication and how clearly she’s expressed her interest in becoming a doctor is very special. Immerse has opened the door for her, letting her see that this could indeed be a career path.
