“She grew into such an independent, self-motivated individual over the course of being at Acton. Not only does she enjoy every minute she spent at Acton, she is also eager and excited to learn about the concept of learning. Acton taught her to become a mastery-oriented person, to focus on ways to overcome failure and not be afraid of it. We are grateful to have found Acton.”

“Acton’s student-directed learning approach combined with plenty of time to eat, play, and create, was so excellent. My husband and I saw our son thrive in ways we’d never seen. Instead of being tired and grumpy after school (like he always was after K-3 in the U.S.), he was energized, enthused, and talkative. He was consistently excited about different projects he was working on. […] I highly recommend Acton Academy Taipei!”

“Our family had a great experience […] We loved the overall program, particularly the teachers, Acton families/community, and enthusiasm for independent learning. It was amazing to watch our first grader navigate the different programs and his assignments independently, and then continue to do so more confidently through the semester. We highly recommend Acton Academy Taipei.”

“Project-based learning (quests) are a major part of the curriculum — they all had interesting themes and our kids had a lot of fun working on them. The guides were supportive and caring, studio space was clean, bright, and comfortable […] We would recommend Acton Academy Taipei to anyone seeking a non-traditional education.”

“We saw the teaching method have quite an impact on the development of our children, in particular their level of independence. The teachers (“guides”) are fantastic, very nurturing at the lower level and very challenging at the upper level. We really loved how they manage the older kids, treating them almost like adults instead of teaching down to them.”
