1) Hi Samaya, can you tell us what you’ve been up to since graduating in 2017? It’s strange to think that I’ve been away from TGS for three years already. After moving around so much with TGS it did take a bit of adjusting to settle into one place, but I’ve now made London a home. I’m in the final year of my undergraduate law degree at King’s College London...

The hike was so fulfilling and I felt a lot during different times of the hike. I felt joy, pain, satisfaction, helplessness, and a whole range of emotions. -Class of 2021 Student Vansh C. Our Chile term centered around The THINK Global Leadership Expedition, a twelve-day backpacking expedition in the sparse and ruggedly beautiful region of Patagonia. The expedition was designed to enhance our students’ leadership and teamwork skills in an...
Read MoreHi Liam! Can you tell us more about yourself. I live in New York City, but growing up, I spent my time both upstate in a small town while also attending school in the city. I went to an arts-based school where I found a love for dance and pottery. Even today, I love to create things with my hands, and when not creating things, I always have something to...
Read MoreRecently our Changemaker Cohort 2 (CM2) students completed their term in Panama, one of Latin America’s most strategically important countries. The visit marked our first term in Panama (we’ve visited its neighbor Costa Rica twice) and given the positive reception it received from students, it certainly shouldn’t be our last. Long a crossroads for culture and business due to the canal that runs through it, Panama made perfect sense as...
Read MoreWhile our CM1 students were down under in Melbourne, Australia, our CM2 students found themselves in a very different part of the world: Oman. The wadis, dunes, peaks, and beaches of this small seafaring nation pair nicely with the low-rise architecture of Muscat, Oman’s capital and our host city, providing the perfect environment for our students to explore Oman’s culture, history, and issues. Orientation Shortly after their arrival in Muscat,...
Read MoreThis fall our CM1 students traveled down under to Melbourne, Australia, for their term in one of the world’s most livable cities. Known for its dynamic art scene, ethnically diverse restaurants, and fervent love of all things sports, adding multicultural Melbourne to our travel calendar was a no-brainer. Best of all, visiting between the months of October and November promised springlike weather throughout the duration of our stay. Viktoria L,...
Read MoreUnder most traditional curricula, students are rarely given the chance to explore the topics they are truly passionate about, instead focusing on concepts that have been deemed worthwhile by a governing body. This top-down approach to learning comes at a price: by the time most students reach high school age, they have become increasingly disengaged compared to their earlier years. But it doesn’t have to be this way. What if...

Read MoreAfter wrapping up their 2018-19 school year in Greece and spending some well-deserved time at home with their family and friends, our CM2 students headed off to China for the first term of their 2019-20 school year. This marked our CM2 students’ third time living and learning in Asia, following terms the previous year in India and Japan. During those terms, our CM2 students had the opportunity to work on modules...
Read MoreFollowing their ten day Rite of Passage in Northern England, our new students joined returning CM1 students in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, for the first term of the 2019-20 school year. During their time in BiH, students lived in the heart of Sarajevo’s Old Town, Baščaršija. One of Europe’s best kept secrets (although that secret is getting out), Sarajevo is always popular with our students, and they enjoyed finding chic...
