Testimonials
“Nordic International School is one of the best things which ever happened to us. A school which fosters an environment that nurtures the child on all levels, so much so that they don’t want to miss a single day of school! And that’s what perhaps every parent wants, his child to come back home happy! Nordic is a school with a great philosophy and a school with a soul!”
“The Nordic International School’s management does not just sit in their offices; they are present in the classrooms, they are involved with the students and provide one to one counseling without any formal appointments and protocol.The curriculum encourages Activity/Project Based Learning which fosters Critical Thinking Skills in the children – a major 21st Century learning requirement.”
“Teachers and staff who are well-equipped with the required potential, vibrant parent-teacher association along with visible improvement in Shaahmeen- her speaking skills, her core values and her growing love for Nordic makes me feel content that she is in safe hands!”
“I am thoroughly satisfied with Nordic as I can see a remarkable difference in Eshaal’s knowledge, confidence, and social skills. Another aspect of Nordic is that each child has the full attention of the teachers and the whole school is involved in the learning and observing process. I recommend Nordic International School to all parents who want quality education for their children.”
“The teachers at Nordic are amazing. They genuinely love the children in their class. Good schools are built on the foundation of deep and genuine care for the students. Nordic has a solid foundation.”
“For quite some time we had been looking for an institution that would work on developing the child’s personality in a positive manner as well as provide quality education. I’m happy to say that we’ve found all that and more in Nordic International School.”
“As the parent of one of earliest students of NIS, I was very apprehensive whether it was the right decision to move our kids to a new school with a totally different methodology of teaching. But now I feel we made the right decision when I see my kids happy and progressing. The system of ‘ learning by doing’ is much superior and long lasting than the ‘traditional route of learning’.”
“Passionate, hard-working and goal-driven, are the three traits that best describe the Nordic International School’s management and teachers. It’s rare that you find such a unique education system which focuses on personalized learning that is run by highly committed professionals. We see significant improvements in our child both academically and socially and are delighted to see her jump off the bed and go to school with enthusiasm.”
“I had been doing an extensive and hopeless search for a good school for my son, until I came across Nordic. Just seeing the custom built campus was a pleasure after visiting so many schools opened up in residential buildings. The Principal gave us a complete tour of the school and made sure to answer all our questions. The enrolment process couldn’t have been smoother. My son is having an amazing time and I highly recommend Nordic to all parents.”
“As parents, we enjoy the involvement and the fact that our son is able to learn and grow in a safe, creative environment. Teachers are able to cope and give enough attention to every child. We are kept updated about classroom activities through the class dojo application. I was also very happy to receive a fairly detailed report during his first ever parent teacher meeting about his progress and development according to their early-learners syllabus.”
“Nordic International School focuses on whole child experiential development, and it truly understands and implements Project Based Learning beyond just a buzzword. Their staff is exceptionally cooperative and always available to discuss any concerns of any kind. I love that the school doesn’t have a closed door policy like most other schools in the area but encourages parent involvement and feedback. Coming from abroad, both my children and I found Nordic to be a breath of fresh air and highly recommend to any concerned parent looking for a better school for their child.”
“My son was very shy when he started the school. But now he knows how to socialize and communicate with others. Teachers at Nordic International School make the child’s learning so joyful. I cannot believe how happy and confident he has become.”
