Testimonials
My name is Meaghan Backhouse, and my children Erin and Maggie Day attended Saigon Star International School from January 2008 to February 2009. My children enjoyed going to the school very much. It is a relaxed, fun, engaging environment, and the children all seemed very happy to be there which, I feel, it is so important in a school. The school fulfils its objective in my opinion; to provide children with the highest standard education possible, whilst providing a personal touch due to the small size of the school and its classes. My children were provided with love, attention, guidance and structure from their teachers. The fact that the school employs and provides teachers of this caliber is testament to its particular vision and objectives. My children are always telling me about what they did at school, what they learned, or they start singing a song that was taught to them that makes them happy; at 4 and 2! Having them at Saigon Star gave me as a parent a valued sense of security and happiness that my children were in good, safe, capable hands.
Thank you Saigon Star.
Testimonial of excellence
As parents to Anis and Arief we are extremely pleased with their progress since they enrolled at Saigon Star International.
We were cautious at first when we enrolled Anis last year when there was resentment and refusal from her to attend class during the first week. But to our surprise, she began to show her interest in school and making new friends in the subsequent weeks. Anis' command of English was apparent after 3 months in school where she overcame her shyness and spoke some basic English words at home. This was largely, we think, as a result of a systematic approach by your teachers to introduce children like our daughter to understand English. As far as her mathematics is concerned, we are amazed that she can count up to 1000 in English. Lately she can also do simple Maths such as addition and subtraction.
As for our son, Arief, who we enrolled early this year, he has also shown some progress though not as fast as Anis but equally encouraging. We are confident that given time to study at your school he will be as good as Anis.
In general, we are pleased with the schools' environment, the syllabus, the teaching materials, the teaching methods, the homework given, the activities conducted either indoors or outdoors, the circle of friends from various nationalities and of course, the pleasant staff in your school who were ever polite and kind to our children and made them feel at home.
We would like to congratulate your staff and teachers for an excellent effort all around. We certainly would encourage our friends to enroll their kids at Saigon Star International School.
Keep up the good work!
Sincerely yours,

My name is Nguyen Thi Kim Ha and I have two daughters, Jessica and Julia. Like other mothers, I always care about health and especially about how to choose the best school for my daughters because I want to make sure that my children are protected and taken care of as they are at home. So 4 years ago, I decided to send my children to Saigon Star. Jessica studied in Saigon Star for the last year of her primary education and Julia has been studying here ever since and is currently in grade 3. At school Julia studies many things, and gains both; knowledge and fun. She loves her teachers and her school very much. After school, Julia usually tells me everything about school, about the subjects, games, lunch, teachers, etc... In my opinion, it is important and difficult to select a good education to help our children improve their language skills, as well as physical and other mental skills. Saigon Star has native teachers from many different countries with high standards and modern equipment. So I think Saigon Star provides my daughter with a good education, attention, love, fun games, relaxed atmosphere and especially, good English skills.
I hope Saigon Star develops and grows more and more and becomes the number one choice for every family and for every mom.
Thank you Saigon Star.
Our boys Dillon and Tyler, five and three years old have attended Saigon Star School for more than two years. As parents, we always feel comfortable knowing they are in good hands there. The boys are happy and enthusiastic about Saigon Star. In fact, when the school is closed at the weekend or for breaks, they demand to know why they can't go to Saigon Star today! They really look forward to it everyday.
We like Saigon Star because of its small class sizes and cozy atmosphere, so that each child receives the maximum attention from teachers and staff who are always available and willing to address parent concerns. This year Dillon is learning the letters of the alphabet and their sounds. He comes home wanting to practice and review each sound. Tyler has learned a lot about sharing with others through the work of his teacher, and it makes a big difference at home.
