STUDYING IN CZECH REPUBLIC
Czechs are said to be the most urbane and liberal of Central Europeans, which in recent years has helped elevate Prague, capital of the Czech Republic, into a mecca for contemporary artists working in all media. The famous and the unknown arrive from around the world to display their efforts in a city crowded with centuries of distinguished architecture—-from gothic and baroque to art nouveau and cubist. Throughout the Republic—-in Prague as well as in fashionable spas and rustic hills that shelter castles, caves and medieval towns—-Czechs are notably down-to-earth, egalitarian and hospitable to visitors.
School
AFS students are placed in either public or private high schools called gymnasiums. These schools are intended to prepare students for further academic education. AFSers are placed in the junior class, the second-to-last year of high school. The senior class or last year is oriented to preparing Czech students for their final examinations to qualify for entrance into university.
LIVING IN CZECH REPUBLIC
Lifestyle and Family Living
Czech host families, like AFS host families worldwide, are not paid. They open their homes to students in order to share their community and culture as well as to enrich their own family lives. Students are generally placed with traditional two-parent families in a variety of settings. These can include the major urban areas such as Prague and Brno, small towns and the rural areas of both Bohemia and Moravia.
Dress and Appearance
The Czech proverb šaty delaj cloveka (clothes make a man) is very appropriate. In general, Czechs frown on shabby or untidy clothing and disregard for appearance. However, they tend to dress less formally for work and more formally for entertainment. Even a visit to the movies or a restaurant, not to mention the theater, requires better clothing. Wearing jeans in an opera house is a surefire way of identifying you as a tourist.
