Languages

Learning foreign languages is essential in a global world. It allows students to gain access to realities beyond their native language concepts, and thus contributes to an international understanding.

At ISD, we recognize and respect the varied interests, abilities, needs and diverse cultural backgrounds of our students. Whenever possible, we select our texts and teaching materials from a broad variety of world literature.

In addition to the study of literature, we consider modern media technology to be an indispensable tool for the development of language skills and employ it accordingly.

Our language courses aim to develop proficiency in the respective target language. Our courses also strive to offer a range of opportunities for becoming better acquainted with the culture, customs, history and geography of the countries where the language is spoken.

Aside from our classroom language which is English, we currently offer German, French, Spanish and Japanese language courses.
