Our Team
Our teachers are carefully selected, highly specialized with an average of fifteen years of experience, and committed to helping each pupil reach his/ her own full potential.
The teachers form a cohesive team and are a source of support, not only to the students and families, but also to each other as they grow and develop professionally.
We continually modernize and update our program and teaching methods. In order to do so, teachers frequently attend conferences in Spain and abroad.
In addition to our staff, we also count with the invaluable assistance of Cheryl Osborn, Psychologist.
