Testimonials
My daughter has been attending MIS since she was 10 months old. In the somewhat three years that have since passed, MIS has guided her to blossom into the intuitive, assertive, intelligent, compassionate, artistic, and humorous person she is. Her English is really advanced for age, and she can already understand and share scientific notions way beyond her age. Moreover, MIS has showed time and time again that they have my daughter's best interest at heart, and have therefore gained my trust so as to where my daughter spends her days.

We chose The Montessori International School of Vietnam (MIS) because our children love their school. Whenever they stay on the long or short holiday, they’re always eager to come back school. Our children have gained much knowledge with happiness and safety. Our children have been going to MIS since 2013 and we still choose MIS for them now. Besides our choosing, I hear from other parents who said that their children have significant development after 1-2 weeks after going to the MIS. They properly follow the Montessori method. It’s great. In our opinion, the Montessori International School of Vietnam is one of the best schools for young children in Ho Chi Minh City.
Hien (Vietnam)
My children have attended the Montessori International School since the age of 3 (this is my eldest son’s 8th school year). I am constantly impressed by the quality of work they do everyday: academics are rigorous but taught in a way that makes them enjoy it. The school offers a very pure Montessori curriculum, which was very important to us. My children are very happy and love their school. I have watched them blossom, to grow strong and become confident. There is nothing more delightful than having children who love to learn and come home to talk about it. And this is definitely thanks to their teachers who are fantastic. Both my sons have wonderful relationships with them.

Our two sons, aged 6 and 9, have thrived at the Montessori International School, where they have the opportunity to concentrate deeply on the works they choose. The multi-age classrooms, in particular, are a unique feature, which encourages the younger students to learn new works like their older friends, and for the older students to help out the younger friends.
Gregory and Pamela, from the US Consulate (USA)
For us it is extremely important for our son to grow up in a diverse culture, making friends with all kind of nationalities & ages. As soon as you enter Montessori International School of Vietnam (MIS) each day you are greeted by such friendly, engaging and nurturing educators & staff. They take the time to know each child and their families so that everyone is comfortable; the children and the parents! Each day we hear stories from our son about the fun, adventures and learning that he has experienced; reinforced by the photos and stories that the educators share with us.
