Language support

Upon arrival, teachers assess each student’s language proficiency to determine the appropriate placement. Our ultimate goal is to consistently support the student’s language acquisition journey, guiding them towards fluency in the language. 

Students who do not have a strong grasp of English receive specific attention in small groups during their initial year with us. Throughout this first year, teachers assist them in catching up and having the level of English that allows them to access their lessons’ main content.
