Spotlight On Our Student Chentong

ISR Student Spotlight: Chentong

This week, we are thrilled to spotlight our eighth-grader, Chentong. Since joining ISR in September, Chentong has quickly made a significant impression on her teachers. She is self-disciplined, diligent, and making the most of her start at ISR.

Chentong’s homeroom teacher, Mr. Krönke, shares, “Since joining our school about a month ago, Chentong has become a valued member of our community. She immediately made new friends and has demonstrated impressive academic achievements. In German class, for instance, she participates with enthusiasm, balancing humility with a willingness to step forward and contribute. Outside of school, she enjoys swimming, reading—most recently Tintenherz by Cornelia Funke—and playing the piano. One of the things she appreciates most about our school is the morning homeroom, where students ease into the day together before starting classes. Her current favorite subjects are Math and German.”

Chentong has also adjusted well in her French class. Her teacher, Ms. Chanal, notes, “Chentong recently joined my French class, and I can already say that she has a very good aptitude for French. She’s thoughtful, tries to structure her words carefully, and always gives her best.”

In addition to her academic success, Chentong is an accomplished swimmer. She recently won two silver medals in the 100-meter butterfly and 100-meter medley events, as well as two bronze medals in the 200-meter backstroke and 100-meter backstroke at the Swim District Rhine-Wupper e.V. last weekend. Impressively, she is ranked 5th in her age group in NRW!

We are very proud to spotlight Chentong, one of ISR’s many outstanding students!

The ISR Student Spotlight Project aims to highlight one of our students from the ISR-Community every Friday, who embodies our guiding principle “We Enable Great Minds and Strong Characters” by consistently surpassing themselves. Whether through outstanding academic achievements, exceptional dedication, or remarkable character traits – we take pride in having already showcased hundreds of students – and there is more to look forward to every week!
