Our counselors and staff are here to assist students in charting a course for university acceptance and pursuing their desired career path.We have an excellent record of our graduates being accepted to universities around the world. We are particularly proud that those students who qualified and wished to study at German universities in fields like physics, law, medicine, agricultural science, marketing, and economics were all accepted immediately after graduating from ISR.What fills us with immense confidence in our program and a deep sense of pride are the glowing reports we receive from our alumni at our annual reception. ISR graduates consistently commend us for: 

  • Their exceptional preparation in Mathematics and Sciences 
  • Our outstanding English program, with students noting their superior competence compared to peers 
  • The invaluable experience of writing the IB Extended Essay, which serves as excellent preparation for university-level research and studies 
  • The crucial lessons on meeting deadlines and avoiding plagiarism, which, despite being challenging, have proven immensely beneficial in their university careers 

These testimonials are a testament to the effectiveness of our education program and the dedication of our faculty. 

Good Communication 

At ISR, we believe the key to working together during these exciting years is effective communication on all levels, and we encourage students to increase their communication with their teachers, counselors, and coordinators. Additionally, we strongly encourage students to communicate with each other in their subject classes and choose academic partners with whom they work well. We have had wonderful success with our peer tutoring programs. 

Good communication is the key to working together in a constructive, respectful environment as a team, and supporting the success of our students. As the African proverb states, “It takes a village to raise a child.” 

We are here to help, advise and inform students. Please send us your questions by email, and we will get back to you with answers or arrange for meetings as requested. We welcome you and assure you that we will do our best in offering your students an excellent education and stunning university acceptance opportunities.
