Speaking on the occasion Khadija Mushtaq CEO Roots Ivy School & College said, “I am very proud to share with you all that Roots Ivy International School/ College has been teaching German language by native Germans to all tiers starting from junior school to A-levels.

These native teachers are available on the campus at all times to facilitate the students. At Roots Ivy it’s not just about learning the German language but it’s about learning the culture and respecting diversity. In a globalized world characterized by international links and inter-cultural connections, acquiring linguist skills has become a crucial necessity for availing opportunities in international careers. If we want our students to be multi-linguistic and appreciate the cultural differences we have to educate and enlighten them to become globally accepted. The students that are selected to be sent to Germany for higher studies are very versatile, talented, skilled and cosmopolitan individuals who respect different cultures and diversity.
