We invite you to come and see for yourself a place where learning is engaging and students develop their talents at a very professional level. We would like to introduce you to the modern education principles which inspired us in creating our curriculum.
It is common that students at American schools are not divided into classes by their age or grade/year, but by level of difficulty in their subjects.
They have fewer subjects than Czech schools but study more intensively in different difficulty levels.
Students can choose their subject level; if they do not feel strong in mathematics, they may choose a lower level. They will learn the essentials about financial literacy and how to use percents, simple proportion, geometry, etc.
If they demonstrate a higher skill in the humanities, they can choose a higher level in those subjects. The subject will get more demanding and complex, so students will spend more time on them. As a result, students learn in small classes with similar levels of skill. Thus, a teacher can adopt a more individualized approach to every student.
This learning style helps students to learn by doing.
Project-based learning entails working in teams, solving problems, using appropriate information, communicating, working independently, and fostering creativity.
All of these are important skills to have for a successful life.
Project-based learning develops these skills every day. Students divide into teams that work on projects together. They prepare a summary of their work and present it to other students. A teacher is there to coordinate and help the students.
Thematic learning is a complex learning method focused on modern world topics. At the end of the first and the second trimesters there will be two intensive weeks dedicated to learning about a specific topic.
Students investigate historical, biological, physical, and entrepreneurial perspectives.
Our students and their achievements. It is up to them to choose what they really want to study. We are here to guide them and support them. We teach everything in English. Our goal is to prepare our students for a successful life in the 21st century.
We do this by helping them discover their passions and supporting them to reach their potential. Thanks to American accreditation we can add subjects like Marketing, Management, Business, Politics, and International Affairs.
We want to know as much as possible about our students before admission. Therefore, we ask each applicant to write an essay, participate in a personal interview with a representative of the selection committee and complete a test in English.
Students’ English level should be at least B1 to understand all subjects in the lower level. But don’t worry; students learning only in English improve quickly, and soon they are able to understand complex topics.
U.S. high school diplomas are accepted everywhere in the world. Students are offered the opportunity to prepare for and successfully complete SAT and ACT- the American university entrance exams - as well as SAT and Advanced Placement (AP) single subject examinations that are needed for applications to European universities.
Our students are from more than 25 different nations and bring an immense amount of flavor to the school through their life experiences, interests and skills. Our teachers are also internationally experienced and educated.
Students have the freedom to choose the courses that fit their talents and interests within each academic department. Our course catalog is extensive and always growing to stay modern and fun. See our "Classes" section on the website for some of the current offerings.
We do. After making the non-refundable deposit to secure a seat in the school, the remaining tuition can be divided into a maximum of three payments.
The two primary differences are the freedom to choose your courses and the absence of generic examinations. All of our students must study English, Mathematics, Sciences and Social Sciences, but they are allowed to choose the courses they are interested in within each department. Due to this, we do not have exams such as the maturita, IB and IGCSE. Instead, our students are graded on their performance, participation, effort and skill development throughout each term and are given the opportunity to quantify their knowledge through AP examinations and SAT subject tests in their final year of study.
