As an Italian teacher who annually visits the school I think TD focuses on the most important skills and competences required by twenty-first century students: global education, critical thinking, emotional & social skills , intercultural issues and experiences. T-D's global approach and individualized learning help students develop a wider outlook and academic excellence.
