The purpose of teaching at the Colegio Americano is based on the children and youth achieving significant and quality learning. This experience requires planned, systematic, sustained and innovative interaction of students with their teachers, the institution and their natural, social and family surroundings.

Every day we teach with our greatest efforts and dedication so that this learning experience will convert the student into an active, creative and critical element. In order to achieve this, many activities are carried out to investigate, discover and experiment, that is to say "learning by doing".

Together with my teaching staff, we are very involved in assuring that all of the boys and girls who study in our institution in absolute harmony with their immediate surroundings are able to carry out their life projects, achieve goals of continued improvement and cultivate the noblest virtues. In this way we make the Colegio Americano motto “The School that We Love and Honor” a reality.
