Istanbul International School has given me a lot of precious things – good education, friends and memories that I will keep for the rest of my life. In our school we have people from all over the world, from very different backgrounds. I have learned a lot about different cultures and languages. And most importantly, I have learned to understand and value difference. This is one of the greatest gifts that I have got from Istanbul International School. Istanbul International School has taught me that we are all special in our own ways and that we should be proud of who we are.

Aino Vitikainen, Finland

“As all our sons have got used to working in an international setting it was easy for them to take part in the international UN peacekeeping operations in Lebanon for example! At the moment Jaakko, age 24, is studying in the Technical University of Tampere to become an engineer. Joel, age 22 is studying in the National Defence University in the Naval Division and Antti age 20 is preparing to leave for a peacekeeping operation in Lebanon. After the operation, God willing, he is planning to apply to study Medicine.”

“Istanbul International School is a unique school and it holds lots of memories for me – its perception of education, its students from many different countries and cultures, and its teachers who always stood with me in a very sincere way. It is rare to find a school where students can feel comfortable and be happy. I found it a real pleasure to go daily to school and found myself enjoying the whole range of activities offered to me. I consider myself very fortunate in having found the school.”

“Istanbul International School proved to be an experience of a lifetime where we met people from all over the world, acquired useful knowledge and skills and spent time in a friendly environment. We thank Istanbul International School for being such a positive part of our lives.”

The Petkovic family, Serbia

“Istanbul International School means a lot to me and its first of all it means pleasure in going to school. It means having a colourful learning environment with local and foreign teachers and students from different countries. We ‘lived’ in a multicultural family atmosphere where we were supported in or learning and not forced. We were always allowed to express ourselves, questioned, participated in activities, gained new skills, improved a lot in foreign languages.”
