Please be aware that this institution is not to be confused with a German school abroad (aka Deutsche Auslandsschule). It only offers German as a third language and to date has no international qualifications like the IB, let alone the DSD (German language proficiency certificate). Since the requirements for this unfortunately have never been met since the establishment of the school in 2016.
No modern or even European teaching methods are used as promised. The teaching is very old fashioned and the official language of the school is Spanish. It doesn't really create the intercultural background you would expect as an expat.
The few German teachers are mostly interns who only stay in Panama for a few months. Real German teachers (if any) rarely last a whole academic year.
Facilities are extremely limited: There is neither a proper gym nor an auditorium like in every other normal school.
No individual attention given to the students as advertised. The only professional thing about the school is social media marketing.
