"It was pure pleasure from the organization of the educational process by highly qualified teachers, the conduct of classes and, of course, the technical equipment of the auditorium to match the stylization of the gaming room. As a scholar researching eSports journalism, I am ecstatic. We have a lot to learn from our colleagues from Trnava," said Bozhena Ivanytska, associate professor of the ZHMK department.
