Best Bilingual Schools in the UK

My parents were searching for a boarding school … they (and I) decided Institut Montana would be the best fit – the student population, the amazing view, the overall welcoming feeling… whenever a new student arrived, everyone would be curious to get to know them and to learn from them.

Thanks to the social and people skills acquired at Institut Montana, I believe I was better prepared for relationship building which, in my perception, is key in any career.

I learned that respect will take you far. I learned that communicating your thoughts with others and respecting theirs took you even further … I learned that rising above differences only made me see clearer. I learned how to bring up my own children using the same values. Today, I own an establishment in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia which focuses on preserving the history of the old town. I believe my love for history from a young age had a lot to do with my teachers.

I came from a small southern Italian town and I was suddenly exposed to a world of diversity. This contributed to open my eyes to a wide range of international possibilities eventually leading me to pursue a scientific path to bring new knowledge worldwide.

The benefits of studying in an international environment with people from all over the world are tremendous. I went to Institut Montana for two years and graduated with the High School Diploma and the International Baccalaureate, which provided a great foundation for my career path. I always had the support of my teachers and advisers who taught me to take risks and aim high. The school also does a great job cultivating it’s network of alumni from all over the world. I’m incredibly thankful for my time at Institut Montana and the friends I’ve made on the magnificent Zugerberg.

For me as a student, Yago School is not just a school, nor a building with classrooms where classes are taught, Yago School is a family. The teachers, the cleaning and maintenance staff, the people who work in administration and the secretary, and much more. Us as students, have been warmly welcomed into this very big family, where you can get nothing but good things out of. Yago School has taught me that not everything can be taught behind four walls: there are values ​​and teachings that cannot be learnt like this. They have helped me grow and develop both academically and personally, and I am the person I am thanks to all the members of this family, whom I will always carry in my heart.
