Our daughter has spent already 2 years attending EFGB Walden and she loves going to school everyday. French is her main language right now and thanks to EFGB teachers she has been doing amazing progress. Every day there are so many activities and there is a serious planning of curricular activities. I found there is always the right mix of learning, playing, physical activities and reading.
 
EFGB managed extremely well to weather through the pandemic without no interruptions of in person learning thanks to a well thought protocol and meticulous application by teachers and coordinators. I owe a big debt of gratitude to EFGB and its amazing staff

Walden

We have just moved from Québec and the abrupt change from French to English can be shocking for a six-year-old. I wanted a place where he continues to express himself well during his transition year.

We are very happy with the quality of education that our children are receiving. They are engaged in their learning, very proud of their achievements and work. The teachers are absolutely fantastic. They are clearly committed to the children and provide meaningful and fun learning activities every day. We appreciate the variety of activities the children are involved in and all the wonderful art projects.

I really value the caring nature of the school. The classes are small, the teachers are patient, kind and warm. My children love going to school daily.

I strongly believe in active learning, which engages students as active participants in their learning during class. They build their own understanding and their knowledge by doing more than listening, by doing things themselves. They must discuss, be engaged in solving problems. According to me, teachers need to motivate children to learn and help them be positive and empathic. They should propose a variety of activities, surprise their students while creating a reassuring and familiar framework for them.
