LANGUAGES
Casvi International American School is an English immersion and International Baccalaureate school in Madrid. Thanks to the continuum of the three IB Programmes (PYP, MYP and DP), students can start preparing for the Diploma Programme from the age of three. From an early age, the acquisition of useful skills and aptitudes to face the challenges of the future is encouraged.
Immersion in English
At Casvi International American, we pride ourselves on being one of the only centres in Spain to offer authentic English immersion. We believe that in order for our students to be able to cope in a globalised world, fluency in English is essential. This is achieved by working on English on a daily basis from the age of 0, thanks to native English teachers.
Coexistence with Spanish
As a school located in Spain, Spanish coexists with English in our classrooms in the subjects of Spanish Language and Social Sciences. However, our students also have the option of choosing Spanish as their language of instruction when they reach Bachillerato and embark on the Diploma Programme.
As well as offering English immersion for foreign students who need it, we also offer Spanish classes for foreigners adapted to their needs.
Chinese
We encourage the learning of other languages such as Chinese, the most widely spoken language in the world. From Grade 3 (Primary 3), pupils come into contact with the language and learn the basics of its culture.
The benefits of learning Chinese can be significant both on a personal and professional level, due to the job opportunities it offers, the broadening of horizons it entails, or being able to access and understand a rich and ancient culture.
In Grade 9 (3rd ESO), students can choose to continue learning Chinese or German.
German
German is taught in our school from Grade 5 (10 years old). It is one of the most widely spoken languages in Europe and Germany, one of the world’s leading economies, so learning this language is a great opportunity.
On the other hand, German opens the door for our students to understand and learn about German culture, history and society, as well as other German-speaking countries such as Austria and Switzerland.
In an increasingly globalised world, it is essential to learn languages from an early age.
