Dear Gateway
Community,
I’m
delighted to welcome all returning and new students and families to Gateway
International Montessori School. Gateway
is a learning community that is committed to helping every child to grow
socially, emotionally, and academically in a safe and nurturing environment. We are eager to have all learners
back on campus and have another exciting year full of remarkable learning
opportunities.
It’s my great honor to be part of
Gateway as the School Principal and the Dean of Academics. I consider myself a
lifelong learner who strives to contribute positively to society, human well-being,
and development. In view of that, I’m avid to research teaching, learning, and
leadership from different perspectives. My passion for exploring diverse
methods to support learners with engaging and empowering learning opportunities
started nearly twenty years ago. Throughout the years, I took part in the
international educational field as an educator, administrator, professional
trainer, and academic consultant for international schools in and out of Egypt.
My educational background entails several diplomas in teaching adolescent
learners, coaching, school leadership, and a Master’s degree in International
Education and Policy from American University in Cairo (AUC) coupled with being
a certified International Baccalaureate (IB) Head of School and a certified Association Montessori International
(AMI) School Administrator.
At Gateway, we pride ourselves on having a loving and caring
community that strives to cultivate a generation of balanced, ethical,
independent inquirers, and creative problem solvers. Furthermore, as a community, we
consider every challenge an opportunity to learn and develop. I would like to
pay tribute to all our dedicated teachers, resilient students, and supportive
parents for their outstanding commitment to adapting to the unprecedented
challenges posed by the ongoing outbreak of the pandemic. It is a solemn duty to protect yourself and
others, so lead by example in all aspects! This effort cannot be achieved on an
individual basis; it requires diligent commitment from everyone.
In closing,
I wish to stress that the safety of our students, staff, and families while
providing quality education is our foremost priority. Given that, these goals
will remain at the heart of our decision-making process. I’m confident that our
enduring collaborative efforts and responsible collective response will allow
us to navigate this new reality efficiently as a resilient cooperative
community.
Wishing you
a safe, happy, and fruitful academic year!
Sincerely,
Passant

"To consider the school as a place where instruction is given is one point of view. But, to consider the school as a preparation for life is another. In the latter case, the school must satisfy all the needs of life."

Communicating well with children and young people is a real talent and a key part of the success that challenges young minds and unlocks potential. Every good teacher has this talent – and more – in abundance and those who truly connect with their young students are rarely forgotten.

One of the things that makes Gateway International Montessori School standout, is that we offer Spanish and Mandarin as a third language. Students that are taught Mandarin, Spanish and German here at Gateway focus on being fluent in the language.
Chinese is becoming one of the widest spoken languages in
the world. The students here at Gateway start with the Pinyin System and
practice their tones, followed by writing. Moreover, China is becoming dominant
in the economy and politics of the world and for that reason the students study
the Chinese Culture, History, and Geography. Another fun fact, is that Chinese
makes the students multitask, due to the fact that it is the only language that
makes a person use both sides of the brain.
Spanish is the second widest spoken language in the world more
than 40 million native speakers. The Latin economy is also growing around the
world. It is easy to learn; it is
written as it is pronounced. Here at Gateway, the students learn fluency in the
Spanish language by listening to it orally, knowing how to pronounce when it
comes to phonics, and being taught vocabulary.
With around 100 million native speakers, the German language is currently the most widely spoken language in Europe. It is also an increasingly popular foreign language, in particular in the Middle East and South America. At present, millions of non-native speakers worldwide learn German. Accordingly, Gateway International Montessori School, in the Academic Year 2023 -2024, is planning to introduce German as a World Language, besides Spanish and Mandarin, Which will be an option starting in Grade 4. Learning German is a promising investment. It is the second most commonly used scientific language in the world; thus, reflecting Germany’s outstanding role in future-oriented research and innovative development. In fact, it ranks second as the most commonly used scientific language
