ENGLISH
At our school, we're proud of the top-notch English education we provide, thanks to our partnership with the renowned Cambridge Certification and Cambridge University Press. It's more than just teaching English; it's about giving students the tools they need for lifelong success with language skills that are recognized worldwide. From the get-go, we introduce students to exams like STARTERS, MOVERS, and FLYERS, which help them get comfortable with English early on. As they progress, they tackle exams like KET, PET, FCE, and CAE, which prepare them for fluency and proficiency. Each day, we dive into engaging Cambridge books carefully chosen to match our language goals for each stage of learning. Join us if you are excited about this language adventure and academic excellence!
ENGLISH DEPARTMENT
Welcome to our school, where every day is an exciting adventure into the world of knowledge! Are you ready for a little challenge? We will test your English and pronunciation. Let's embark on a linguistic adventure together by reading aloud this delightful passage. Don't worry, it's for fun! “Hear me say, devoid of trickery, Daughter, laughter, and Terpsichore, Typhoid, measles, topsails, aisles, Exiles, similes, and reviles; Scholar, vicar, and cigar, Solar, mica, war and far; One, anemone, Balmoral, Kitchen, lichen, laundry, laurel; Gertrude, German, wind and mind, Scene, Melpomene, mankind.” Think this was tough? Well, for our students in Aristos, it's just another walk in the park. Here, learning isn't just about textbooks and tests; it's about embracing the joy of discovery. Teaching is our passion! Join us and experience the thrill of learning!
At our school, our top priority is making sure our students feel happy and excited about learning. We customize every lesson to fit their age and skill level, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere where they feel safe, encouraged, and valued. Through our teaching methods, we lay down the groundwork for success in their academic journey, boosting their confidence and self-esteem to help them grow in all aspects of language learning.
We offer a variety of activities and projects that dive into both American and British cultures. By exploring different cultures and language nuances, students not only develop a deeper understanding of English but also gain insight into the richness of cultural diversity. Our English program includes an average of 20 hours of language instruction each week.
A key focus for us is improving students' communication skills. We provide them with the tools they need to express themselves confidently, whether it's in the classroom or out in the real world. That's why we've created the "CT LOUNGE," a special conversational method where students engage in English conversations based on real-life situations. Whether it's navigating airports, shopping, traveling, writing to pen pals abroad, or diving into a good book, students practice and refine their communication skills with peers, receiving helpful feedback along the way.

In our Conversation Club, our main aim is to help our students feel more confident and at ease when speaking and interacting with their peers and teachers. We want to banish any nerves they might have about speaking in front of others. Besides, we're dedicated to improving a range of speaking skills, whether it's giving class presentations, reciting poetry, singing, giving speeches, or chatting with people from different cultures. The activities we organize in this club are carefully crafted to help them grow, allowing them to express their thoughts more freely and refine their pronunciation and language skills along the way.
Our teachers not only excel in language proficiency but also have some great pedagogical tools up their sleeves. We aim to make every class interesting and interactive, using a variety of teaching materials to maintain high academic standards. Our goal is to equip students with the skills they need to thrive in today's increasingly globalized and tech-savvy world.
In our teachers' classes, which are both creative and interactive, English is the main language we use. This means students get plenty of practice listening to and speaking the language correctly right from the start. We also make use of digital resources in our lessons, which further enhance the learning experience and reinforce what's taught in the classroom.
But our focus goes beyond just academic success; we also believe in instilling important values and providing students with the tools they need to grow personally and professionally. At Aristos, we're more than just a school; we're a close-knit community where English and Spanish teachers work together closely to ensure students meet their learning goals effectively. We're like a family, dedicated to our students' success.
