Colegio Cuernavaca is a bilingual and multicultural institution. Our kindergarten and primary classes are divided into two shifts: English and Spanish (half and half of the day).
English classes are taught 100% in English with an Anglosaxon gamified environment. The class material combines the EFL (English as a Foreign Language) and ESL (English as a Second Language) methodology with a communicative approach. Our teaching materials are co-authored with Richmond in the “Compass Reading Logs” where 5 of the 12 style reviewers were teachers from our institution. In the digital part, our material is integrated with platforms like iRead for secondary school, designed to practice not only grammar but also vocabulary and listening comprehension. Its content is current, from Netflix series and YouTube capsules, making it very attractive and of interest to our students. In primary school, we use MyOn and Compass, as well as applications focused on developing the four language skills: speaking, reading, writing, and listening.
Additionally, Colegio Cuernavaca is a testing center for Cambridge and TOEFL certifications, coordinating Cambridge for even grades and Princeton (TOEFL) for odd grades. These exam results have allowed our graduated students to achieve the necessary scores to enter upper secondary studies in multicultural or bicultural modes.
Annually, we have participated nationally and internationally in ETS TOEFL Mexico organized contests and have won various medals in the “TOEFL YSS Olympics, Go English Project and Ambassador & Community Awards” and 14 primary school projects won internationally in the Time Capsule contest of the “TOEFL YSS Olympics, Go English Project and Ambassador & Community Awards,” and students received their diplomas and plaque. Activities that allow practicing English include:
