How would you rate Montessori Academy Bangkok International School?
Great school and curriculum. teaching team has a real passion to see the child develop in true Montessori fashion, which is rare. Extensive amount of Montessori material. Amazing for the children to be learning, English, Chinese and Thai in the same environment. Newly launched secondary program is also very strong.
Be warned parents We were verbally granted the admission of my son for the coming term which eventually was not true. We spent hours filling out the application form and driving there 3 times, also money (4k baht) just to be considered. After reaching them several times and being ignored we were eventually told without any explanation that my son did not have a seat at the school, which let us in a very distressful situation with no time to join another school. Simply outrageous,
We love MABIS! The classrooms provide a peaceful and calm working environment. Our son come home excited to share about their dayās work ā the hands-on Montessori materials provide a true fundamental understanding of concepts and a fun way for him to learn. Montessori has created a love of learning for our son. The amazing teachers (and truly the entire staff) take such a genuine interest in our child's complete development, and foster such a warm caring environment. They take the time to really learn each personality and learning style and what makes them tick. They have been incredibly supportive, both emotionally and academically. We are very thankful to have found MABIS and thankful to be part of such a supportive community. Highly recommended.
Even though this schoolās facilities isnāt as big as others, it is a friendly environment for people/student from all ages. It is a wonderful secure place for your children. MABIS is a growing and so are the children. They have excellent teachers and appropriate activities. Their academic is amazing and is teaching my children new things everyday (especially in math etc...)My children have been there for over 3 years now and I have seen how theyāve grown in so many ways.
Most of the monies gained from kindergarten students go to investment in having secondary school approved. But they don't have any secondary students yet. Rumor has it that it's for the owner's children. But all in all, they don't have enough funds to run a proper school.
A very unpleasant place to be. The owner insulted and blamed everybody else for every mistake she'd done. Poor facilities because the owner was reluctant to pay for anything. A couple of good teachers but a majority of them were very weak because no good teachers could stand her for long. There is only a gym/theatre/etc. for toddlers to upper elementary + school activities + etc. The "football field" was very poor equipped because it was actually the owner's front yard. And it was for children aged 3 to 11 to play together; imagine how unsafe it was.
Poor attitude. Poor management.
Great school and good teacher who very care their students. School is very clean and comfortable.

We are extremely happy with this school. Our two kids have attended MABIS for several years now and we have seen their growth both academically and as human beings. Our son was a difficult child when he was a toddler and the school did a stellar job to help him become the confident, calm and happy kid he is today. The teachers are highly qualified with AMI (Association Montessori Internationale) certifications and have taught for years in different schools and countries. The principal herself is a high achieving professional with several degrees from the U.S.A. (not only in Education, but also attended MIT) with a passion in Education and a deep understanding of the Montessori system, second to none in Thailand. We highly recommend this school.

Our son has been 5 years in this school, and is now in Elementary 2. Over all that time our son has volunteered repeatedly to us how happy he is to go to school. At age 7 he is conversant in 4 languages, is doing fine in math and other subjects, loves sports, can present to his class, and is generally comfortable in his own skin. We are very happy with his development at the school.

Our kids have attended Montessori Academy Bangkok for nearly 5 years now. We can't praise it enough. The school hires top trained Montessori teachers, who have been brilliant in guiding our kids through the early years, through learning how to interact with peers, and through learning how to be independent and creative people! Highly recommended.

Great school with great children, families, dedicated teachers and owner. The community and passion for the Montessori method from all is evident upon entering the school. It is truly a wonderful school with a promising future! This school is highly recommended for a wide variety of reasons and the top three reasons are: education, dedication and professionalism. Keep up the great work MABIS!

MABIS is a wonderful school with such a great community! Montessori Academy gives children the wonderful gift of learning several languages all within a Montessori environment. The staff members are hard working and the owners are generous and kind. Any family would be lucky to call MABIS their childās school.
