Testimonials
Carlo Calzavara
The European Summer School in Prague was a great expierience! I can really recommend it to everyone! ??
Jakub
I enjoyed time in Prague very much, the city is splendid, people were awesome. Even though I am not a party guy, the program offered me a lot of sightseeing, city tours, I visited museums, parks and everything possible. Two weeks is ideal time for getting to know new people, making new friendships, to learn something and enjoy city. I would recommend joining ESS for everyone.
Anna-Christina
A great summer experience where I had the chance to meet people from all over the world. It was also awesome to see Prague and the different views and attractions of the city. I learnt things about communication in business from the course and developed my communication skills. This experience made my summer different!

You apply for a course, in my case Online Marketing, and you get a lifetime experience. It´s not only the knowledge you gain, it´s the people your meet and the friends you make, the ambitious teachers and caring organizing team you get to know, it´s the spirit of an international summer school that makes these two weeks truly amazing.
