American International School of Transylvania„Gateway towards the world!”

In everything we do, we promote excellence in education and highlight its role in enhancing everyone’s well-being. We support the proactive participation of children, youth, and citizens in community life, as well as the multicultural dimension and diversity they can benefit from amidst today’s challenges.

Using interactive methods, our team inspires children to learn foreign languages in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, opening their horizons toward both Romanian culture and cultures and civilizations from around the world. We serve both typical children and children with disabilities, from urban and rural areas, from foster care centers or traditional families, as well as youth and adults with programs tailored to their needs and abilities.

Our association organizes foreign language courses for children starting from age 3, general knowledge competitions, workshops promoting European cultures and civilizations, green environmental actions, anti-drug and volunteering awareness campaigns, and events celebrating major international holidays.

We are the only operational unit in Maramureș for The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award personal development program for youth, and a youth organization accredited by the European Commission for the Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps programs. To date, over 300 young people from 25 countries have shared our vision of education, bringing an international spirit to all our programs.

We are proud partners of the British Council in running preparation courses and hosting all exams in the Cambridge English cycle—having organized in 2016 the first objective evaluation of children’s English proficiency in Baia Mare. Throughout our years of activity, we have steadily grown and supported the progress of over 35,000 children and young people.
