In the 2 years of training, we provide the necessary professional, practical and theoretical skills so that the future instructor can teach art effectively. Moreover, our master's program includes a teaching internship where the student assists art professors during practical lectures and lessons at the academy. A regular individual colloquium is scheduled with each of the students to give feedback on their teaching performance and offer professional advice.
