Our team
We are happy to introduce you to our carefully selected and experienced lecturers! Each lecturer prepares teaching material directly tailored to his group of children. During the week, however, each of them will also visit the other groups at least once to diversify the program. Together with them, other organizers ensure the smooth course of the concentration, of course. Below you may read more about us.

support us
Various forms of individual or corporate donations are nowadays key to the functioning of every non-profit organization. At first glance, it may seem that the contribution of an individual may not have a greater impact on the overall operation of the organization, but the opposite is true. Although financial aid is extremely important for any non-profit organization, it does not have to be primarily about sending a financial contribution. You can participate as a volunteer during the planning of the training, its promotion or directly at the venue as a member of our team.
