Please note:
Since 1995 all our courses have taken place in
the school premises and have been held by our qualified
and experienced teaching staff. We are not a school selling courses
which afterwards other schools or institutes take charge of. That
is why we offer only a selected choice
of courses, whose programmes and schedule have been
tested and improved throughout these years. |
