Alumni Spotlight: Julie
Celebrating the journeys of our former students to inspire the next generation.
- Could you please introduce yourself?
- Hi, I’m Julie. After ISO, I attended an eight-year program at Církevní gymnázium Německého řádu. Currently, I’m living in Brno and studying Food Chemistry at the Brno University of Technology.
- How has ISO influenced your career path and contributed to where you are today?
- ISO influenced me the most by giving me a safe place to grow. Because our classes were small, I wasn’t afraid to speak up and learn from my mistakes. ISO also had a huge impact when speaking and understanding English, which made my later studies much easier and less stressful. Today, this confidence helps me look at problems from different perspectives. Whether it was finishing grammar school easily or my current projects, the way I learned to think at ISO is a great advantage.
- What is one key skill or value from ISO that helped you?
- One key skill I gained at ISO is a strong focus on problem-solving. I learned how to handle many different tasks and find solutions effectively, even when working in various groups. This ability to deal with any challenges has been very helpful in my later studies and life.
- What advice would you give to our current students?
- My advice is to enjoy your youth and not take things too seriously. Everything will turn out the way it’s supposed to, and things always have a way of working themselves out in the end.
