In November I attedned a course ” Teaching the Fun Way in the Digital Era”. I can truly recommend the school, the teachers and the city! The atmosphere was really International, the course had an interesting and useful programme, the lecturers(Dario, Mirna and all the others)- professionals and very kind! I also recommend going on trip organised by school- the guide and the sights unforgettable. All in all- Split a beautiful and a safe city, why not go on a training there?

I attended courses for a week here. It was a wonderful experience. Perfect organization. The professors were all excellent, informed, contagious, dedicated to what they do. Here theory and practice are combined. Presentation of new knowledge, experiential activities. But in addition to the lessons, don’t miss the program, which includes excursions and guided tours with excellent guides. Everything was wonderful.
