Student Spotlights: Spotlight On Our Student Irem
Student Spotlight: Spotlight On Our Student Irem
Friday, 6 May 2022
This week, we spotlight our first-grade student Irem, who joined ISR in Kindergarten. Irem is a wonderful student who always has a smile on her face. She is a kind and caring child who cares deeply for others and always lends a helping hand to a friend in need. Ms. Morris, Academic Head for grades 1 and 2 adds, “ Irem is a great role model for her classmates at ISR!”
Irem is a friendly student who always has a smile on her face. Her strong personality makes her to a confident young student. Her teacher, Ms. Broscheit, says about her, ”Irem absolutely loves listening to stories. She often shares her thoughts and ideas that relate to the stories we read together. Irem has a great sense of humor and can often be seen giggling in the classroom. If you are ever in need of some cheering up, being in her company will most definitely fix that.” We are already looking forward to seeing how Irem will continue to develop at ISR.
We are very proud to spotlight Irem, one of ISR’s many outstanding students!
Every Friday, our Student Spotlight Project aims to highlight one of our outstanding students who represent our school motto, “we enable great minds and strong characters”. No matter if it is academic success, special commitment, or outstanding character traits – we look forward to sharing each of these success stories.

Our Muslim community celebrated the traditional festival of Eid Mubarek yesterday. Today, they did not miss the opportunity to share their wonderful tradition with our international school community. For this, the families went to great lengths to decorate a booth and distribute sweets to all the children in honor of the festival. We are very grateful that our families shared this special tradition with us and that we were able to celebrate Eid Mubarek with our entire community – our students were clearly delighted!
Another Successful Career Talk at ISR
Another Successful Career Talk at ISR
Monday, 2 May 2022
Last Friday, another successful Career Talk took place at ISR. Two employees of the international auditing company Ernst & Young, which is represented in over 150 countries, visited us. Mr. Stojanovic, former dual student of EY and current assistant, as well as Mr. Brookshaw, Senior Manager, held an exciting lecture in front of our 11th graders, during which our students got an insight into the company and its diverse fields of activity, as well as, into the daily work of an auditor and the application process. The Career Talk was very interactive as our students clearly showed their great interest and asked many varied questions.
Mr. Stojanovic and Mr. Brookshaw talked about their service lines, the difference in auditing small and large companies, and the impact of COVID-19 on EY. Furthermore, they explained the benefits that come with working in an international company, such as valuing cultural diversity. “We love to be as colorful as we could be,” Mr. Brookshaw emphasized. Another important part of EY is the individual development of its “talents”, as well as, the conscious promotion of women in management positions. Special programs are in place to help them develop their own careers. Currently, 44% of EY’s employees are female and as Mr. Brookshaw emphasized at this point “it is extremely important to hire and promote female leaders”. During the Career Talk, it quickly became clear that EY offers every one of its employees the opportunity to pursue a successful career on a level playing field. The Career Talk was a great success and the interest of our students was so great that Mr. Brookshaw and Mr. Stojanovic took the time afterwards to have individual conversations with our students and answer open questions. We are already looking forward to discussing further cooperation opportunities with EY in the future, where our students will have the opportunity to get to know the company better.
We would like to thank Mr. Brookshawn and Mr. Stojanovic for their exciting visit and their time!
