A Look at Our Students’ Growth in the English Program

After the first three months of classes in this school year, our students in the English program had the opportunity to present the progress they have made to their parents. During the presentations, the students demonstrated their ability to introduce themselves, describe their likes and talk about their routines, showing not only the knowledge they have acquired in vocabulary and grammar, but also in pronunciation.

Each group, under the guidance of their teacher, prepared different activities or short presentations that reflected their effort and dedication during these weeks. It was very exciting to see how students, with different levels of experience, encouraged themselves to speak in English in front of their parents, and how, despite feeling nervous, they showed confidence, creativity, and enthusiasm for what they have learned.

For parents, it was a moment in which they were able to witness their children’s achievements, whether it was overcoming their nerves and daring to speak in front of others, improving their writing skills, or gaining more confidence when expressing themselves orally. Without a doubt, it was a moment full of pride and motivation for the students to continue learning and improving their skills. We are proud of you!

We also want to recognize the teachers who guide their students with patience and dedication, designing their classes so that students continue learning in a fun way while developing their communication skills and fostering a positive and motivating environment at the same time. Thank you, teachers!

With these experiences, we reaffirm our commitment to offering an English program that is meaningful, inspiring, and formative, and we prepare to continue accompanying our students on their path toward new achievements throughout the rest of the school year.
