"Talent im Land" is a foundation that has been supporting young talented students for 20 years, thus promoting equal educational opportunities. Naomi Petrea is one of those young talented people. Five years ago she moved with her family from Romania to Germany. Soon her teachers saw her various talents: She sings, she writes, she's interested in linguistics, arts and music, she is sporty, exceptionally sociable and always seeking to learn: Her ambition and commitment are exceptional. She was very surprised when her English teacher suggested applying for a scholarship with "Talent im Land" - but she tried and was successful! 

Two years later, Wiestorschule has to say goodbye: Naomi graduated with good results and will now go to "Droste-Hülsoff-Gymnasium" in Meersburg to take her A-levels. In her view she profited greatly from the many options for individual learning the Wiestorschule provides: "I was supported in so many ways. We received extra German lessens and I was to follow my interests and build on my strengths. I received advanced tasks in subjects, I was good in and was singer in the school band. Many teachers saw me and encouraged me to follow my path."
