Features of admission to private schools

System

System

  • The USA is famous all over the world for the level of its education. Studying in these countries gives children a chance to more successfully arrange their future and career, learn to live in a modern and constantly developing world. But it is difficult for a child for whom English is a foreign language to adapt to a new environment and team. Such children will be more comfortable studying in private schools, which are more adapted to foreign students.
  • When planning a move with children to Miami, you should think about the school in advance. Education in the USA has always been considered prestigious, therefore, in order to provide a basis for further studies at the university and the basis for creating a successful career, one should thoroughly approach the choice of an educational institution.
  • Many private schools in America are boarding schools, i. children can live in them. Studying is expensive, but the costs will be justified by the level of knowledge and opportunities for further education.

In private institutions, children study in small classes of 10-15 people. The program primarily provides for the study of the main disciplines:

  • mathematics;
  • Computer techologies;
  • English language;
  • natural and social sciences;
  • physical Culture.

In high school, instead of physical education, a student can choose to engage in some kind of sport, success in which will be taken into account when entering a university. Also, the educational program often involves a more in-depth study of the main subjects.

  • The main feature of hostels in Miami is the education system. Here they teach not only one theory, as in most Russian schools, but also an algorithm for mastering knowledge. Students most of the time in the classroom work on their own, looking for the necessary information, analyzing it and applying it in practice.
  • At the end of the course, students take the SAT exam. It consists of two parts: Math level and assessment of knowledge in 3 subjects chosen by the student.
  • Level 1 results (SAT I) are required for admission to any college in the United States, and level 2 results (SAT II) are required for prestigious universities.
  • In private schools, as well as in public schools, there is a division into primary, secondary and school. If in elementary school children usually study according to the standard program, then in middle and high school students can already independently choose the direction of interest:

  • legal;
  • sports management.

The cost of studying for one year depends on the rating and prestige of the institution. On average, this amount is $20,000-50,000, including accommodation, tuition and meals.

The advantages of boarding houses in Miami also include:

  • Development of student independence. Children do not live in their own home, but in special buildings. This allows children to become more independent and learn to solve some problems on their own.
  • Excellent opportunities for sports. Most US educational institutions provide all the conditions for the physical development of children (modern sports equipment, tennis courts, swimming pools and gyms).
  • The educational program is much deeper and richer. In private schools, they strive to give children more versatile knowledge in order to broaden their horizons.

Tips and assistance

Tips and assistance

    • Mastering English at the native level. To do this, it will be necessary to work out in linguistic centers. This will help foreign children to master the colloquial vocabulary, which is necessary in their studies and in life abroad.
    • Attending introductory classes that will help the child quickly integrate into a new environment. This stage is not mandatory, but is recommended for faster and easier adaptation in a school institution.
