"The best lesson I have had so far was at Atlas Summer Courses when we studied Game Theory during the programme, and when we did presentations in class about shops or platforms that we had to imagine ourselves."

"The best part of my classes at Atlas Summer Courses would be the insight they've provided towards looking at history from different perspectives, and how important it is to properly gauge the usefulness of a source in your given essay. The summer programme experience has been enriching and has allowed me to broaden my understanding of historical analysis."
