Leadership Skills

Have you always wanted to study abroad, but couldn't find the time nor resources for it? Then I think ESS is the perfect solution! In this two week program, I learned so much about myself, life, and Praha. Due to the well-structured program and communication with the activity leaders, you will have the feeling that you are on a holiday with friends whilst also being educated in things you are actually interested in. It was especially nice that you could take some time for yourself if you feel like it, although there is the possibility to participate the everyday activities. This overall experience has gotten a special place in my heart and I surely would recommend everyone (no matter what age or background) to attend such a summer course. Embrace life, educate yourself, and have an open mind!

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! ??
