About Program
A transformative two-week summer programme for motivated students aged 15-18, built around the art of communication, storytelling, and public speaking.
Through a blend of theory and practice, small-group collaboration, and personal coaching, participants learn to shape powerful ideas and deliver them with clarity, confidence, and presence. The experience culminates in each student presenting their own TED-style talk to a live audience, captured on video.
Why choose TED Summer School?
Great communicators don’t just inform, they inspire action. TED Summer School offers ambitious students a rigorous, high-support environment to master the skills that make ideas resonate: clear structure, compelling narrative, evidence, voice, presence, and visual design. Beyond the talk, participants leave with a toolkit they can use across essays, interviews, leadership roles, and academic or professional pursuits.
Locations: London, New York, Singapore
