I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Professor Dr. Jan-U. Sandal for the opportunity to complete an internship at the Fil. Dr. Jan-U. Sandal Institute. This experience was extremely valuable both professionally and personally.

From July 1 to September 1, 2024, I took part in an internship on the topic “Innovative Teaching Methods in Higher Education Institution.” The internship program was rich, meaningful, and contributed to a deeper understanding of the role of innovative approaches in the educational process amid today’s challenges.

A particularly important outcome of this internship was the preparation and publication of a scientific article in a peer-reviewed journal – “Visnyk of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. Social Work” – on the topic “Innovative Teaching Methods in Higher Education Institutions During a Full-Scale Invasion.”

I sincerely thank Dr. Jan-U. Sandal for his high professionalism, academic support, encouragement for scientific activity, and the unique opportunity to become part of an international academic community.
