Testimonials

 

 

I have become more involved in sports after joining AISM. I took up swimming for seriously and take part in local and international triathlons and even won top medals. This is thanks to the training I have received in school.

 

In the classroom, I love how we can work and communicate in groups for example we have an open space where different classes can work together.

 

 

 

Kimberley graduated from AISM in 2018, having been a student at the School for 11 years. She will soon begin studying her Bachelors in Biomedical Engineering at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Australia.

 

In school, Kimberley was an all-rounder student, having excelled in sports as well as academics, with an impressive ATAR score of 95.05 in the recent HSC examinations. She feels the Australian curriculum is more open and moves away from the traditional ways of studying where it is always focused on exams, and trying to memorise all the facts. Here, there is an equal weight to assessments and exams, hence it broadens the capabilities of how much a student can do. It’s a great way to prepare us as students when we go into university life, which practises a similar way of assessments.

I have seen AISM's rapid progress in terms of its facilities, quality of teachers as well as in communicating with parents. When the Junior School building opened in 2014, it showcased incredible learning spaces with a much more comfortable learning environment.

 

The school also improved in their CCA Program in particular swimming, by providing in-house coaches who can provide additional support and guidance for students. My children are extremely happy at the school.

In my old school, teachers would give us a worksheet to complete, telling us to just go and complete it, with not much guidance.

 

But in AISM, we discuss the work that needs to be done. Teachers explain things to us to make understand better, making learning a lot more fun and interesting.

 

I participate in the Violin CCAs, and also love the computer coding classes. In 2017, I was the School Captain of Junior School, and represented AISM in the KL Novel Knockout program.
