I waited for lessons more and more every day. Thank you for a professional approach to explanation and not only reading information from the Internet. It is very cool that there are such people in Ukraine that find it important to have educated youth. Thank you!

I plan to become a historian, so it was helpful to broaden my horizons. For example, the topic of branches of government was very interesting. I enjoyed the interactive activities, the great communication within the group, and the teamwork — sometimes our discussions extended the sessions 😅
