Illustration Practice

I really liked it. The teacher was really good at his job, he could help you no matter what you were trying to illustrate with whatever technique. For me, as someone with absolutely no art experience whatsoever, it was unclear what exactly illustration practice entailed. I had the idea beforehand that it would be more of a drawing course. Nevertheless the course was really valuable: it got me going. The most import thing I learned is probably that you shouldn’t be afraid and just do and try, it will come to you eventually. The course was really helpful. The activities were really nice.

Personal Development (ON CAMPUS)

ESS brings together people not afraid of engaging in something completely different from what they’re used to doing back home. It’s a great way to meet and interact with young people representing different cultures and as such – a definite opportunity to spend quite possibly the best couple of weeks in your life if you’re curious, enthusiastic and open to new experiences. Also, Prague is absolutely amazing!

The new friends... Czech cuisine... the city of Prague... and of course the Kozel (New favorite ?)!! I had an incredible summer experience! The course is a perfect blend of gaining knowledge while having fun and discovering the beautiful city! The program is so well organized, incredible after study activities, easy transportation, friendly team members. It'll be my fondest memory for a while and for that I say: Děkuji ? Highly recommended! ??
