Colegio Los Nogales Native Speakers Teachers Program

Our Native Speaker Teachers Program started in 1991 with three teachers from the U.S. and has since grown to nine North Americans. As a bilingual school, the main objective of the NST Program is to improve the English level of the students, and as such, North American teachers are expected to speak English to their students at all times. However, the North American teachers also come as cultural ambassadors who participate in the growth of the school. The teachers who come to Nogales are attracted by the opportunity to teach in an academic environment of excellence where they are encouraged to be demanding, by the strong commitment to values and by the emphasis on the individual. They also like the beautiful campus and enjoy the state-of-the-art facilities. They appreciate the immersion in the Colombian environment where they learn about the love to the country while practicing their Spanish. Finally, they come to learn about another culture, to travel around South America and to have a great time.
