Two of my sons study at this school. The kids are happy. I really like teachers who are able to present information on their subjects in an interesting way. Many lessons are held outdoors. Lots of hikes and trips. If you have any questions, you can quickly contact the school staff and get answers to them. Before the pandemic, there were many different interesting trips to other countries, such as Tanzania. Most of the schoolchildren are foreigners. The school has certain quotas for international students, so the classes have a diverse national composition. The sons became friends with schoolchildren from France and Spain. So far, so good.

Read in fullAt Leysin American, my daughter studied for 2 years, from 2018 to 2020. I can say that the school gives a decent level of education. Good electives in fine arts and music. Before the pandemic, many cultural trips were offered. Good food and leisure program. We chose an American school in Switzerland, as we plan to receive higher education in the United States. Preparation for subjects at school is good, I was also pleased with the work of academic curators who help with career guidance. The price tag is quite adequate.
