At the Forbes Women’s Summit, our PBIS educator Olga Jovanovska Boshku shared a powerful message: confidence is not something children are born with - it is something they learn. At Prague British International School, building self-belief is not an accident. It is intentional.

As the saying goes, if you want something done right, you’ve got to do it yourself. Now at the Faculty of Informatics at CVUT (Czech Technical University in Prague), Dominik’s journey to studying computer science began out of obstinance–he didn’t want to pay anyone else to run his servers, so he figured out how to do it. He hasn’t forgotten his roots, though. Now he pays it forward by mentoring PBIS (Prague British International School) students through a collaboration with his university in hopes of inspiring the next generation of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) academics. 

Come on, it’s not rocket science. For some people it is! A 2022 graduate from PBIS, Ilyes is currently working on his bachelor's degree with a focus on mechanical engineering, physics, and computer science at Sorbonne University in Paris. Apart from his academic work, he’s also working on a modest side project: developing a jet engine. His approach, in his own words, is to “learn as much as possible about everything” so he can apply his knowledge to real-world situations and make the world a smarter, better place.
