What Students & Parents Say about Park Lane International School

“Hi, I am Paul Popovich and I graduated from Park Lane in 2020. I currently study Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London, which is among the top few universities in the world regarding the quality of this course. When I graduate from university, I not only hope but am very likely to take up a career in pharmaceutical manufacture or sustainable energy development. I owe much of my place at this university, as well as my career prospects, to my time at Park Lane. I’ve been a part of Park Lane since 2013 and if there is one thing I recall from the 7 years I studied there, it’s that my success was always their priority. Not only did they put my juvenile mind on course to think about what I wanted to do with my life, but they guided me every step of the way, not just as an institution, but on a human level as well. Something I will always look back at fondly is the way all teachers and staff cared about us as people and in some cases worked to literal exhaustion to help us when we needed it most.”

Teacher of Science and Biology

Djorf Amirouche

Born to an Algerian father and American mother, I was raised across the Mediterranean becoming multilingual and intercultural. This transient upbringing endowed a deep empathy that informs my teaching. I studied molecular biology at the University of Colorado Boulder while also training extensively in theater arts. After beginning my career in the film industry at a talent and literary agency, I transitioned to teaching - my second calling. My time at international schools in North America, Asia, Africa and Europe honed pedagogical skills I will eagerly impart at Park Lane. Beyond the classroom, I pursue filmmaking, tennis, and biology, favouring an interdisciplinary approach to understand life's complexities. My global background has cemented my appreciation for our shared humanity and I aim to instill this cross-cultural outlook in students.

Prague has become my second home after teaching and living in the UK for 19 years. So far, I have worked as a supply teacher, class teacher, Maths Co-ordinator, Year Group Leader and Assistant Head Teacher and I have had a great opportunity to work with children across KS3, KS2,…
