A great school with a fantastic team. Our kids had a great start and we were very happy about the brilliant organization of the first days for us as a new family. We felt super cared for from the very beginning. We had the feeling of belonging to the MIS family from the very first moment. The kids at MIS get great positive feedback, which means that their self-confidence is rising, they are learning quickly, and they love going to school. We always notice how much passion, motivation and love the teachers give to the kids. The interaction with the children is fantastic. We are convinced how much our children will benefit from the education at MIS, to become open minded, self-confident and excellently educated personalities.

Talking to the Guidance Counselors at MIS made me confident in applying for TUM. They knew exactly what courses I needed to take at school or which documents to submit.

MIS, especially the school system, staff and facilities have had life changing impact in molding us as humans, entrepreneurs and friends.

My child has attended MIS for the last five years and we are very satisfied with the pedagogy, the faculty, the values and the school campus. My child finds the school engaging and the experiences provided by this international program have helped her developing critical skills and competences. We are grateful to be part of this community and we would highly recommend this school to families that move to the Munich metropolitan areas from other regions.
