I wanted to see the country of Bohumil Hrabal, to understand his art. I also heard that Czech Republic is a beautiful country, where people are friendly and open to foreigners. It was a coincidence, but I don’t regret it. It was a happy accident University that I’m part of is an Erasmus partner of NEWTON College.  My experience is even better than I thought! These months on NC are the best in my student’s life. My teachers expected creativity, imagination and thinking from me, not a pointless memorizing. I feel that I grew here personally and learned more than I expected. I really like NC and I can recommend it to every student, it’s a great university! And it also comes with the bonus of good parties and nice student life. :)

I came to the Czech Republic because I have gotten a job here. Since I am already here, I also wanted to continue my studies. To my surprise, NEWTON College meets all my needs. I like the cultural diversity of professors in the English program. Having people from around the world does tell a lot about the university.  And they are really good at what they teach. Lectures are really interesting plus I found it very positive that professors help those students who sometimes struggle to understand more complex issues in English. 

It has always been my dream to study in Europe. The Czech Republic, in particular, has always been a country that enchanted me a lot, not only for its natural beauty but also for the privileged location of the center of Europe. When the opportunity arose to come and live here, I grabbed it with all forces and began searching for a college. NEWTON College is one of the only ones to offer the course completely in English, is located in the heart of the city, has an affordable price and is a recognized and award-winning college. After my research, I had no doubt that it would be the right choice for me. Life at NEWTON College is exceeding my expectations. With a very flexible schedule, allowing me to work and study, I can always count on great teachers, who are always available, impeccable infrastructure, with places to study and rest, and a student department that has always open doors. It certainly is the best option for me.

"The program takes three years to complete. This gives you enough time to get adjusted to life in the Czech Republic, make new contacts and even gain valuable practical experience through internships and employment, which international students of this program can enjoy without any special work permits.“
 

Choosing the right university was very important for me. I think that I was lucky to have made the right decision. I just trusted this school. I feel that the College helped me to believe in myself and it gave me enough room to work hard on my values and personal growth. My driving force has always been an inspiration and I have been given more than enough of that at the NC. I have always liked to hear and read success stories; I have always liked to be inspired by the experience of interesting and successful people, regardless of whether they were NEWTON guest speakers, lecturers or other students and graduates. My classmates have always been the greatest source of inspiration for me. They work on interesting projects, they are starting (or have started) their own successful businesses and they are not afraid to follow their own goals and dreams.

"For us, faculty members, it is important to have an individual approach. We use it to encourage students to explore and understand what a natural human behavior is. Our starting point is: if you want to lead others, you must first understand yourself. Therefore, we lead the students to understand their strengths, to actively self-develop and to cultivate their thinking. We give them enough room to get the most of their studies."

Personal attitude is much more important in the management of companies than is the perfect knowledge of specific managerial tools. Therefore, we try to make our students grow professionally rather than push them to memorize theory. We use practical examples to enhance their ability to think critically about problems and to search for best possible solutions.

"We started our business together with my classmates during our studies at NEWTON College. Thanks to everything the school taught us, we managed to develop an internationally successful business. The really great thing about NC was the opportunity to consult with the lecturers (top-class experts) various questions regarding our business – even outside the regular classes. During psychology classes, I worked on my personality development, during the practical managerial techniques lessons I practiced moderation, negotiation or effective leadership skills. Almost everything we learned could be immediately used in real business life”

I believe that learning is a necessary part of manager´s work. A successful modern manager should constantly learn. The more you know, the better you can do your work and bring value to your company. Lecturers at NEWTON College do not teach their students just interesting and even unique bits of information about business, but they teach how to search for these kinds of information and how to work with it. I was surprised to learn that education of such quality can be obtained for such price. During my professional career, I have received a good quality managerial education through various interactive workshops. I will not say any specific amounts here, but I can say that costs of these workshops are much higher than the tuition fees at the NEWTON College. Even the learning form at the NEWTON College seems of better quality to me.
