WE TEACH
18 Languages
1. Spiritual language
The spiritual language is one of silence and of encounters and conversations with ourselves, in order to connect with that superior intelligence considered by many to be God.
2. Emotional language
The language of emotions is universal. We teach students to understand their own in order to understand the world around them. We rely on music, which we teach professionally at our school..
3. English language
We teach our students an academic English that allows them to enroll at prestigious universities in England, the United States, and Canada. This is proven by our outstanding performance in the University of Cambridge’s examination, which all our students undertake.
4. Mandarin language
We are a Confucius Classroom, with ample Mandarin-speaking academic personnel. Due to their excellent level, our students receive scholarships every year to participate in camps in China.
5. French language
We teach French and French culture from an academic approach, and all of our students graduate with a certificate from the Alliance Française. This is important, since the French government offers postgraduate scholarships for French-speaking students.
6. Spanish language
Delving into our mother tongue is fundamental, for good writing and public speaking skills trigger the success of our students.
7. Creative language
We teach in a creative environment. At our school, no classroom is the same as the other, and our creative methodology aims to create experiences and surprise our students. We also demand creativity through a wide range of projects created by our students.
8. Mathematical language
Our students master the language of mathematics, which enables them to solve and face challenges in any domain. This is further proven by our Math Olympics and our results in the SABER state exams.
9. Language of understanding
Being able to understand history as a cyclical movement that repeats itself allows us to recontextualize it in the lives of our students. That is the magic of teaching at the Montessori British School.
10. Language of entrepreneurship and money
Mastering the language of money is important: learning how to obtain it and the role it should play in our lives is essential to our happiness and well-being.
11. Scientific language
As biological beings, our body is a "chemical laboratory". At the Montessori British School, our students learn scientific language to implement it in their life decisions, as a useful and indispensable tool.
12. Audiovisual language
Today everything is conveyed through audiovisual media, and our students learn it by handling high-definition video and photographic cameras.
13. Body language
The body is one with the mind: the more we comprehend it, the more intelligent we become. Therefore, we study this language intensely, as showcased in our students’ onstage artistic abilities.
14. Ancestral language
Understanding the legacy of our ancestors, situating "the word circle" in different contexts, recognizing the importance of our elders in the family and in society, and being one with nature are essential qualities of Montessori
15. Language of the future
Every child dreams of having an “all-purpose” robot: here at the Montessori British School, we make this dream come true, teaching them algorithms and coding from a very young age.
16. Language of nature
Nature has its own laws and language. If we understand the whispering of the trees, the plants, and the animals, not only will we become one with nature but also with all the benefits it contributes to, such as our health and well-being.
Oratory
Being able to convey a message orally is very important, more so today than ever. From a very young age, all our students are trained to express themselves in public, with eloquence and confidence.
18. Culinary language
Each culture seeks to express meaning with food. With extensive knowledge and appreciation of foreign cuisines, all our students prepare for the various challenges of everyday gastronomy in all the places of the world that they will be able to visit or inhabit one day.
5 reasons to choose
us Academic excellence The best premises Location and times Integrity Our students
Academic excellence
Academic excellence is so important at our school that our students choose their university, without their having to be otherwise chosen.
The best premises
Premises are important, for they host children most of their weekly hours. Therefore, ours are original, creative, and accordant with our educational project.
Location and times
Time is a non-renewable resource: a child is only a child for mere 10 years, thus we take the most advantage of this part of their lives.
Integrity
Our school’s staff, be it administrative or academic, is our primary asset.
Our students
The students of the school are special, committed, and big-hearted beings.

Claudia Díaz, principal of the prestigious Montessori British School (Bogotá), maintains that choosing a school for one’s child is the most important decision, on which the future depends. She compiled the following list for parents to take into account during decision-making.
We asked Claudia Díaz, Montessori British School principal, about the five most important things that children should learn when they are young, and this is what she answered:

At the Montessori British School, children are not taught one language, but four: English, French, Mandarin, and Spanish. And this program’s efficiency is demonstrated by the overwhelming results in the Cambridge, Alliance Française, YCT (Mandarin), and Saber 11 tests. We interviewed school principal Claudia Díaz to learn more about this initiative.
Claudia Díaz is not like any other headmistress, neither in appearance nor in her way of thinking. She herself confessed to us that when she enters the United States and explains that she is the head of Montessori British School, she is always told that she does not look the part, because the stereotype that many of us hold true does not become her. She looks young, modern, and very athletic.
At Montessori British School, robotics is taught from age 5.

She supports a transcendent education she calls education for life: one compatible with academic performance. This is evidenced by her students’ excellent results, almost always top-notch performances, in the Saber 11 tests, Cambridge International Examinations, DELF (French proficiency tests), and YCT examinations (Mandarin proficiency tests).
Education is the most important gift you will give your child, as it will define their life. And your visit to an educational institution is key, since in it you will be able to observe if there is actually coherence between
"what is said and what is done."
The subject of money is often controversial because, even though as parents we want our children to "have it", through many of our everyday expressions we send the wrong message. Proof of this are phrases like: "That's business" or "The only thing that matters to them is money", uttered daily by many parents, without much idea of their implications.
