How opportunity and trust helped Karolina develop her confidence

At BISB we believe in building confidence and resilience in our students. Our world class teachers prioritise getting to know our students on a personal level and working with them to build trust. This means our students quickly feel comfortable and confident enough to challenge themselves and take risks, so that they realise what they are truly capable of. We are passionate about giving our students lots of different experiences, both in and out of school, in order to open their eyes to all the opportunities available to them. We believe this will empower them to be ambitious and reach their goals.

Slovenčina v medzinárodnom prostredí BISB

Ako si udržať slovenčinu, keď dieťa študuje v angličtine? A čo ak ešte nehovorí po anglicky plynulo? Na British International School Bratislava veríme, že viacjazyčnosť je prirodzenou súčasťou moderného vzdelávania. Dieťa nemusí stratiť svoj materinský jazyk, aby získalo silnú angličtinu. Práve naopak – tieto dva jazyky sa môžu navzájom obohacovať a posilňovať.
