Teacher training
We are proud to provide constant training and English language certification courses for our teachers. In fact, 90% of our teachers hold an English proficiency certificate, which verifies that almost the complete Department has the required language level to teach at a bilingual school. Nonetheless, our goal is to continue improving, not only regarding language skills but also in terms of teaching methodology.
