I would especially emphasize culture, university expectations, and practical life in Ostrava. Those are areas where international students often feel least prepared, regardless of their academic ability. A course covering these topics would complement their medical studies and help them settle in more confidently before classes begin.

Course duration 3 hours, payment 1000 EUR (in case of starting studies, the amount is included in the tuition fee for the 1st year of study)
