About GESS
As one of the leading international schools in Singapore, GESS is home to students from over 70 nations worldwide. We are for many families the home away from home and we are very happy that they are part of our school community which is based on mutual support and solidarity. With our language programme, we support our students to nurture this part of their identity and want to preserve the opportunity that they can grow up with multiple languages to be best prepared for an international environment. With the German International Abitur or the IB Programme they are perfectly prepared for their career after school. Our students enjoy lifelong learning and we take pride in our GESS values of respect, openness and diversity which our students will nurture in their life after school.
We were awarded with the “Deutsche Schulpreis” (German school prize) 2022, which was given to us for our extraordinary concept according to their motto “Make teaching better”. We stand out as the only German school abroad nominated for this award.
Academic Coaching is an essential part of our comprehensive learning support concept at the German Section. Academic coaches support the student in many ways, including filling in the gaps that exist in the learning process, helping the student build self-confidence, promoting interaction and ensuring the student stays focused in the classroom. The academic coach helps the student being prepared and organized for class, enabling the student with the approaches for optimum learning.

In general, the following tasks are involved.
