Mark Loborec (year 2), the student of The Diocesan Classical Gymnasium was awarded second place at an International English Competition Best in English, which took place on 30th November 2017. There were 17. 612 high school students from 29 countries participating in the competition, which consisted of three parts: grammar, listening and reading comprehension. The competition was organized by a not-for-profit organization Institute for Competencies Development with the help of a language school AKCENT International House Prague. Mark found the competition interesting and said he was lucky, as the tasks seemed to be quite easy. He had a hunch that he would be successful, but was not quite sure about such a good result. Mark’s mentor was Tatjana Jarc, teacher of English at The Diocesan Classical Gymnasium.

We are proud of Mark’s success and congratulate him upon this fantastic achievement! /Lily Schweiger Kotar/
