Education is an integral part of our growth. We have transferred our education online, including English lessons, as English is crucial for us. We are an export business partner with an international team. We prefer group education, as it maintains a higher level of motivation, as each of us is naturally sociable with a greater or lesser degree of competitiveness.

I worked with its founders in many projects before the unique human genius of this institution, its friendly and accommodating staff, professional and experienced teachers attracted me as a student.
