\"\"<\/p>\n

Mariangela Vergara Ruiz, 31 years old, graduated with a double degree in Pedagogy and Early Childhood Education from the University of Navarra in Spain. Her curiosity later led her to travel to Hong Kong, where she spent six months as an exchange student. Upon returning from her travels and studies, she joined Second Grade as the lead teacher for English and Mathematics. Later, she became interested in leading STEAM projects in the Elementary section, working on projects with students from Second to Fifth grade.<\/p>\n

She then pursued a Master’s degree in Education at High Tech High in San Diego, California, specializing in Project-based Learning. High Tech High is internationally recognized for training educators in the creation and development of projects with students. During her time there, she worked with schools and students in grades 3, 4, 5, and 8. She also received training to complete her master’s degree in one year and return to Colombia.<\/p>\n

In August 2023, she will be working at the Innovation Center, aiming to put into practice everything she has learned throughout these years of training and personal growth. She is thrilled to be working at the Innovation Center and to provide students and teachers with a quality education that prepares them for the challenges of the world. She aims to provide rich learning experiences that students enjoy and where they can put their talents at the service of the community.<\/p>\n

Through innovation, the goal is to enhance children’s learning by always striving for relevance (making it meaningful for them) and rigor (deep learning that encourages critical thinking, questioning, and development of their critical abilities). She firmly believes that education is the most powerful tool to change the lives of our students and teachers. Together, by uniting our strengths, having a clear purpose, and being flexible in our learning and unlearning, we can stay at the forefront of what education and the world need from all of us.<\/p>\n

Being persistent is the greatest teaching that the Altamira School left me. She tells us that if there is something that will always be remembered of her school and her principal Mrs. Priscilla is always to be an extraordinary person, since as Mrs. Priscilla said; “It’s very easy, you just have to do extra things”. Among the positive habits that helped her get where she is; Persistence, divide your projects into small tasks and ask for help and advice.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, she is working with the Promotion and Dissemination Unit of the university, supporting various aspects of promotion, marketing and logistics.<\/span><\/p>\n

Natalia graduated from the Altamira school in 2013 and believes that the school offered two differentiating factors; that of being a producer of quality and second a life-long apprentice. Natalia tells us; “Being a student or a graduate of Altamira is an asset. Growing up and maturing in an environment such as that provided by the school brings great academic abilities and human qualities that make a difference in today\u00b4s competitive society. Able to keep herself humble and being respectful, tolerant and excellent team workers, at the same time being quality producers is what defines a Altamirinean and is a reason why one gains admiration. All the things I learned in school have continued to cultivate in college, and when faced with difficult situations, with people from other cultures and educations, they have been reflected and have made me excellent contacts, good friendships, and recognition by my peers for my outstanding work. “<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, she tells us that for her, success is nothing more than achieving your dreams and goals while remaining yourself, sharing them with others, and enjoying the path you took to reach them.<\/span><\/p>\n

He joined a project of entrepreneurship between family and friends (CPS), in which he serves as Chief Financial Officer. He graduated from Altamira International School in 2013 with honors and believes that success is going to bed every night with a smile and no remorse at all. He says: “I believe that success is based on Maslow’s pyramid of needs, where being successful is supplying basic needs, security, affection, recognition and self-realization.”<\/span><\/p>\n

He studied Business Administration with an emphasis in finance at HULT International Business School in the United Kingdom, where he graduated with honors. As a former student of Altamira he gives the following advice to current AIS students: <\/span><\/p>\n

BALANCE: Studying all the time wears you down, doing nothing wears you down and depending on another wears you down. Finding balance is difficult and is something we should always look for. Never be afraid to ask.<\/span><\/p>\n

THE PASSION: Nothing that you propose to do, you will achieve or maintain in time if you do not do something that you are passionate about. Something that will take away your sleep at night or motivate you to stop going out on a weekend to dedicate time to focus on your goal. Do not come short in effort and do everything with the outmost desire. <\/span><\/p>\n

BELIEVE IN ONESELF: When you think you know something, believe in it. Always SUPPORT your opinions with arguments and question everything. But when you get to know something that you believe and that you are passionate about, stay with that idea. The world we found outside was created by people not exactly smarter than you. They just wanted to do it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Daniel Sourdis Serrano, a successful entrepreneur and alumnus of the Altamira school, tells us that the greatest teaching acquired at Altamira would be summarized with the following sentence: “Everything we vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely create and enthusiastically undertake, will inevitably happen. “He graduated from high school in 2009 and studied Industrial Engineering at Universidad del Norte, where he graduated with honors in 2014.<\/span><\/p>\n

They like to call it “The Uber of the home”.<\/span><\/p>\n

The three practical and simple tips that he would give to the current students of Altamira would be:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Meditate: It is a practice that has been done for many years. It has many benefits. It helps you control your emotions and think clearly.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Eat healthy.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Travel: It will always be a very good experience to grow as a person and open your mind.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Finally, this entrepreneur says that if I had to summarize in a formula the success would be:<\/span><\/p>\n

    Success = Attitude x Aptitude x Discipline x Motivation.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Andrea Paola Ramirez Nieto, 29 years old, graduated from the first promotion of the Altamira School in 2005. This civil and environmental engineer says that the most valuable teaching that Altamira left her was not academic. In school, she learned about social skills, respect and empathy towards others and to develop the potential as individuals. From her school, she learned that the difference between an ordinary person and an extraordinary person is the “EXTRA”. Extra means doing more, dreaming big, being passionate and planning your success. Exit the ordinary and enter a select small group of the population that define their goals, put projects in motion, discover what they are capable of and finally enjoy their achievements. <\/span><\/p>\n

    She is currently in Australia working with a multinational considered one of the largest in the world of mining as is Glencore International, serving as the ‘Water Infrastructure Coordinator’. Their job is to manage all the projects related to the treatment of water product of mining and subsequent reuse or discharge into the environment. It\u00b4s main task is to develop sustainable water management and protection plans, thus guaranteeing a minimum impact on the environment. Academically, he has completed two professional careers at the Universidad de los Andes (Civil and Environmental Engineering) and a Master’s Degree in Water Resources Management at The University of Adelaide in Australia. Among her personal achievements, is living and working in Australia which is one of the countries with the best quality of life in the world. <\/span><\/p>\n

    Excel academically and work abroad, without the company of family and friends and unfolding in a completely unknown environment, has been an experience of many challenges but has helped to identify her strengths and desire to be better every day.<\/span><\/p>\n

    For Mar\u00eda Alejandra Barrios V\u00e9lez, the greatest lesson learned at Altamira was learning the English language and her great curiosity to learn other languages. The English classes at College, where she read books by great authors of English-speaking literature, allowed her to excel successfully in a postgraduate complex of creative writing in English at the University of Manchester. She met in those classes, great authors such as Capote and Paul Auster, who influenced her writing skills. Mar\u00eda Alejandra graduated from History at the Universidad de los Andes with an emphasis in Journalism and Literature. She has taken courses in creative literature at the University of New York, NYU, and an MA in creative writing at the University of Manchester. <\/span><\/p>\n

    Among her achievements is having successfully completed a master’s degree in English in creative writing and being the co-editor of the book “The Manchester Anthology” which brings together the texts of 16 authors of fiction and poetry in Manchester. When the program’s directors admitted her to the program, they did not expect success, since they had never admitted a writer whose native language was Spanish and not English. However, her persistence and ability to work, without forgetting English proficiency, has allowed her to graduate with great recognitions. She has made many readings of her produced texts in literary events and in the launch of the book she co-edited. <\/span><\/p>\n

    She is currently completing her first novel. For this 24-year-old former student, the word success is synonym of persistence. She says that we must first define what makes us happy and have the strength to work and be closer to fulfilling our purposes every day.<\/span><\/p>\n
