4worldlovers:

A network of American schools, we are inspired by the best educational concepts from around the world: the freedom to choose subjects, individual approach, subjects divided according to competences, emphasis on practical learning, project-based learning and theme weeks. All classes are taught in English and led by a team of teachers from all over the world.


American Academy is a network of American schools in Prague, Brno, Bratislava and Zagreb all of which are united by a single educational vision. We take an individualized approach to our students and expect the highest levels of professionalism as well as a willingness to listen from our teachers.


To ensure constant improvement, an anonymous satisfaction survey is regularly conducted among parents and students. Thanks to this openness to feedback, the American Academy -- especially over the past two years -- has seen minimal turnover in teachers and students when compared with other international schools.

The highest priority of American Academy is to lead the students towards great academic achievements through a quality program that prepares. Thanks to that our students achieve above average results compared to their peers and are accepted at prestigious universities all around the globe.


The teachers are so friendly and approachable that it's very easy to learn and ask questions without having to worry about being wrong.

Choosing an international school in Prague was a difficult decision but I believe I made the right one when I chose to join American Academy. Before coming to American Academy I saw school as a formality that I had to do but didn't enjoy at all.

American Academy changed my mindset about school with its amazing teachers and their practical learning environment. The teachers are so friendly and approachable that it's very easy to learn and ask questions without having to worry about being wrong. American Academy doesn't just focus on exams and grades but also on things that will help you grow as a person, such as presentation skills, communication skills, etc.

In the last five years of studying at American Academy, I have enjoyed every moment of it. This school has helped me overcome many obstacles which have made me into a better person, and I will never forget the amazing experience I have had at American Academy.

I like that the teachers are always very friendly and help the students all the time.

I like American Academy, because it builds character. I joined the fiber arts club, where I get to socialize with other kids while we talk. I love all of my classes. Most of the students are nice to everyone. At first, I had a hard time making friends, but then I made all of the friends I need.

I am learning a lot, and we have extra curricular activities such as Theme Week, Secret Santa, and a Valentine’s Day Post Office. I like that the students can make their own clubs, if they have five people who want to join. I like that the teachers are always very friendly and help the students all the time. In conclusion, the school is amazing and I enjoy coming.

Here there are so many kids from other countries and I like to be friends with them.

I love this school because here the teachers are so funny and I like them. I like that there is no homework. I also like our math lessons because they are so fun. It is not like how they are in the Czech schools or somewhere else. Here there are so many kids from other countries and I like to be friends with them. They are so funny and happy.

All of the classes are very creative and everyone can find something they love.

I chose AAB because I could transfer from 8th grade right into high school and it gave me the chance to maintain and improve my English skills.

I am extremely happy with my choice because the friendly family atmosphere makes my high school experience enjoyable and fun. The teachers' approach and the curriculum are very individualized and the school supports their students' interests and hobbies. All of the classes are very creative and everyone can find something they love. I love the option of online classes because it gives me the chance to manage my own time and be responsible for my work. This year the school even offers an improvisation and healthy cooking class.

I am the president of the student council and we are given a lot of freedom with our ideas for the school. We can bring up concerns and renew school policies, if it seems fit, and all of us have the chance to bring up new activities and theme days to the student body.

4worldlovers: PCU's Living Futures Annual Theme initiative delves into the complex realm of global challenges by encouraging interdisciplinary exploration of a central theme. For the 2023-24 academic year, faculty have selected a one-word theme “Adapt”. Adapt will filter through activities and events within and beyond the curriculum and encompass various topics such as technological advancements, global challenges, evolving work environments, and mental resilience. Adapt embodies a spirit of resilience, flexibility, and forward thinking. It also recognises that change is not only inevitable but also an opportunity for growth, innovation and success.
