This week, we spotlight our eleventh-grader Felix, who joined ISR in 2013. Felix has made great strides over the past few years, which his teachers have noted with enthusiasm. His former PE teacher, Ms. Racheva, noted: “I had the pleasure of teaching Physical Education to Felix from grades 3 to 9. He was a highly energetic and valuable player. Felix’s best quality is that he was a team player and played with true sportsmanship in our sports lessons. He is very humble and down-to-earth. Apart from sports, he is quite impressive in his studies as well. His caring nature and personality allow him to work well with others in a team setting, as he always respects others’ opinions even when they differ from his own. I am certain that Felix is going to continue to do great and creative things in his future.”

He is currently in his first year of the IB Diploma and is very keen to continue improving his academic performance. His teacher Mr. Kirk added,“Felix has been working studiously in his physics course to achieve great scores and understand key content.
