WHY I CHOSE TO HELP FAMILIES FIND THE RIGHT SWISS SCHOOL FOR THEIR CHILD
Introduction
Choosing the right school is one of the most important decisions a parent can make for their child. In my family, education has been a calling for four generations. For more than 35 years, I have dedicated my professional life to this field. Today, I support international families as they navigate the unique — and sometimes complex — world of Swiss private schools. From my early experience as a school director to my current work with Swiss School Consulting, I have advised hundreds of families with care, dedication, and clarity.
My Journey in Education
My career began in the leadership of well-known private schools in Switzerland. This experience allowed me to observe, from within, how academic excellence, human values, and international vision come together in Swiss education. Over time, I built a strong and trusted network. This includes boarding schools, bilingual programs, and specialized institutions. As a result, I developed a deep understanding of what truly defines a high-quality school.
Understanding Families’ Needs
At Swiss School Consulting, we take a personalized and holistic approach. Every year, I meet families from diverse backgrounds. Each of them has its own expectations, cultural values, and educational goals. Some are looking for academic rigor. Others focus more on student well-being, structure, or language immersion. Therefore, my role is to listen, understand these priorities, and match them with the right schools. Often, the best-fit school is not the one that ranks highest on Google. Instead, it is the one that aligns with the family’s values and the child’s personality.
Why Good Guidance Makes All the Difference
Swiss private schools offer exceptional quality, but also great variety. There are many differences in programs, languages, environments, and fees. Choosing without proper guidance can be overwhelming. With my experience, families save time and avoid common mistakes. Additionally, they gain access to schools that they might not discover on their own. I support them from the first consultation to the final decision — and even beyond, if needed.
My Role Today at Swiss School Consulting
Swiss School Consulting is not a marketing agency. Rather, it is an independent and tailor-made advisory service. I work with parents, investors, and institutions. Depending on the need, I may guide a family through the entire admission process. Other times, I negotiate international franchise agreements for Swiss schools or advise on school acquisitions. No matter the mission, my commitment to educational quality and trust remains at the heart of everything I do.
