Project-based learning: Manages to develop orderly thinking by proposing solutions to situations related to real life through sequenced steps. In addition, since it takes place over an extended period of time, it allows students to develop organization and planning skills.
Learning based on problems or challenges : Develop multiple skills from the resolution of a problem or challenge, such as broadening your perspective by having to approach the problem from different angles for its analysis, the development of creativity when proposing possible solutions, as well How to encourage them to be assertive in decision-making based on the information available and learn to work under pressure.
Case studies : It is sought that the students, first in a personal way, then in small groups and finally in plenary, formulate proposals that propose concrete and realistic solutions considering different perspectives, to real life situations. Through analysis, reflection and discussion in small groups, empathy is fostered and presenting the conclusions to a group promotes the development of confidence and clarity to speak in public.
Experiments: Encourages children to inquiry, investigation and discovery learning by fostering curiosity by encouraging the student to ask questions and formulate their hypotheses, and seek answers. Through experimentation, they manage to understand natural and scientific phenomena to generate and propose models.
Collaborative centers: It serves to reinforce or consolidate learning previously addressed with the support of specific environments and materials. It encourages student autonomy by assigning them a task with a limited time to complete it, in the same way it responds to multiple intelligences and learning styles by providing alternative materials, activities and evaluation depending on each student.
Training environments
Nuestras instalaciones son parte importante dentro del proceso de aprendizaje de los alumnos. Aprovechamos cualquier oportunidad, dentro y fuera del salón de clases, para generar una experiencia educativa-formativa. Todos los espacios han sido creados cuidando cada detalle con el objetivo de desarrollar al máximo el potencial de nuestros alumnos.
- We integrate technology into the classroom, not merely for entertainment purposes, but to reinforce concepts, ideas, and skills effectively.
- Large windows adorn our premises, enabling students to regulate their attention and connect with the external environment.
- Neutral colors adorn all our spaces, fostering concentration and creativity among students.
- We strive to breathe life into every nook and cranny of the classroom, encouraging students to explore and utilize each corner to their advantage.
Bilingualism
In our model, English is much more than a subject. The main advantage of our approach to bilingualism is that students achieve a high command of English, which allows them to study and work professionally in a second language, and they also have the possibility of obtaining international certificates that guarantee their knowledge.
Proficiency in English occurs progressively in the different sections and upon graduation our students* reach a C1 level according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
Starting in the 7th grade of Middle School, our students learn French as a third language.
Accompaniment
We firmly believe that people are the ones who train students, therefore, we consider the teacher as a fundamental link that mediates the learning process so that each student achieves their maximum development. In addition, we maintain close communication with the parents with whom we form an alliance to support them in their educational mission.
Sport, art and culture
Through sports, our students have the opportunity to discover themselves,learn to overcome challenges, build determination, character, and develop
psychomotor, emotional, social, and intellectual aspects.
Furthermore, we provide students with a continuous exposure to art and culture, which aids in the development of critical and creative thinking skills, as well as various emotional competencies.
Differentiated education with mixed environments
Nuestro modelo de educación diferenciada con ambientes mixtos nos permite ofrecer a nuestras familias, lo mejor de los dos mundos.
Estamos convencidos de que la educación diferenciada que se aplica dentro de los salones en primaria y secundaria, es el mejor camino para potenciar al máximo las capacidades cognitivas y el desarrollo académico de nuestros alumnos, ya que esto nos permite adaptar las estrategias pedagógicas a partir de los intereses y características psicoafectivas de los alumnos. Adicional a esto ofrecemos la ventaja de que alumnos y alumnas convivan de forma natural y espontánea en un ambiente mixto logrando:
- Un óptimo desarrollo socio-emocional.
- A natural coexistence with the other sex.
- Form groups of mixed friends for life.
- Prepare to live in a world that is mixed.
Technology
At all our educational levels we seek that students use technology effectively and efficiently as a tool to increase their productivity, develop their creativity, communicate ideas and learn collaboratively, without forgetting the responsibility that their use entails. We seek that all students develop their maximum potential and that they are creators and not only consumers of technology.
Through the use of educational technology, robotics and the STEAM methodology (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Math), we encourage students to see it:
- A valuable and essential resource for learning
- A means to develop digital skills.
- As a foundation of technological skills for the following educational levels.
