Located in the An Phu ward of Thu Duc City, the Binh An Campus of the Montessori International School of Vietnam distinguishes itself by using Vietnamese as the primary language of instruction. This campus uniquely integrates the authentic Montessori method with the curriculum requirements of the Vietnam Ministry of Education and Training. While the core instruction is in Vietnamese, students are also introduced to English and Mandarin Chinese throughout the week. The facility is designed with specific attention to environmental comfort, featuring classrooms equipped with air purifiers. A notable highlight of this campus is its spacious outdoor garden, which spans over 100 square meters. This area includes a sandpit surrounded by trees, plants, and wooden decking, providing a natural setting for children to explore. The campus caters specifically to families living in the Binh An and An Phu areas who seek a Montessori education within a Vietnamese linguistic framework.
