  Description

  Our school is a private school (kindergarten & elementary school) located in Mao, in the northern part of the Dominican Republic. We offer high-quality education to children from ages 1 until 9.
  We are new school in town with an intensive English program focused on developing the young minds of today for the future of tomorrow.
  
  We are very proud to be able to provide high-quality education to more than 80 children. 
Since 3 years we have a Belgian teacher in our team. She is sharing her knowledge and experience of the European education system to help us in the pursuit of providing high-level education for our workers’ children. Many of the other schools in the area have adopted some of these practices, resulting in something of an evolution in the local education.

  Aide

  We are looking for enthusiastic people who enjoy working with children and who have a degree in education. Because we expand every year, there is a lot of need for extra help. We are looking for someone who can help us with assisting the teacher, reading with the children or even teaching yourself. Do you have a degree in education and do you speak English well? We can offer you a fun and life changing teaching experience.
