Since my daughter was admitted to HCIS, she has shown significant improvement in her study habits, knowledge expansion, and self-discipline. HCIS starts subject-specific learning as early as Grades 9 and 10, giving students more opportunities to understand their strengths and weaknesses before choosing their IB subjects. This approach helps to avoid potential pitfalls during the IBDP stage and is highly effective.
Additionally, HCIS provides extra attention to students who transfer in mid-term. If a student struggles to keep up with a particular subject due to the transition, specialized tutoring is available. This demonstrates the school's genuine concern for the growth and well-being of each student.

On most classes we do nothing else but thick piles of worksheets.

Second of all and most importantly, teachers here are terrible, unprofessional , have little to no IB experience and qualification as most are coming from moe school and some even have zero teaching background which is atrocious that they are even allowed to... read full review
