BASIS International School teachers are unwavering in their belief in the ability of every child to succeed. They set high expectations and offer continuous support as students rise to meet those expectations. Ask any of our students what makes their school different, and they will first tell you "the teachers." The passion that BASIS International teachers exhibit creates an environment in which students are nurtured and grow to love learning. Though guided by the BASIS Curriculum, teachers are given the freedom to deliver their material in the manner they think best suits their students, and best lights the fire of learning in every child. BASIS International teachers are experts in the subjects they teach, and are gifted in acquiring profound insight about the individual needs of their students.
BASIS Curriculum teachers know that every child learns differently. Students are not only offered, but also encouraged, to seek help and support in and out of the classroom. Every teacher has at least two hours of student hours set aside each week in which students are supported one-on-one or in small groups. It is not uncommon to find older students voluntarily helping younger students during study periods, lunches, and before or after school.
