Philosophy
At Horizon Academy, we embrace the wisdom that while you can count the seeds within an apple, the potential yield from a single seed is immeasurable. This philosophy drives us to be a sanctuary for children, fostering their growth, nurturing their knowledge, igniting their passion, and guiding them in discovering their distinctive roles in the world.
Advantages
Holistic Education
Children can build character and improve their physical and mental development through well-designed activities that engage the five senses.
Inquiry Method
Teachers do not directly give answers but guide children to discover solutions and form concepts themselves.
CLIL
Content and Language Integrated Learning
In a natural learning environment, students learn a variety of subjects and English at the same time.
Solid Foundation in Mandarin and Math
Reading, writing, and arithmetic are fundamental abilities. By using comprehensive learning materials and effective teaching methods, Horizon Academy helps children build a strong foundation in Mandarin and math.
Comprehensive Learning Materials
Learning is supposed to be free of language, cultural, or subject barriers. Horizon Academy adopts and adapts curriculum from different countries, so children can learn without limitations.
Foreign Language
Learning a new language is like opening a window and seeing a different world. And it is fun!
Flipped Classroom
No more traditional teaching or scoring system. Through collaboration, hands-on activities, discussions, presentations, Horizon Academy makes children the center of learning.
Two Homeroom Teachers
Classes are conducted together by a foreign teacher and a Taiwanese teacher to address the needs of every student.

For A Better World

At Horizon Academy,
We are eager to learn.
At Horizon Academy,
We set off to explore the world.
When the sun rises in the sky,
Bright light shines everywhere.
Open your eyes! Let's rise and shine!
We can make all our dreams come true.
Be ready to help.
Be willing to share.
Be honest and brave.
And never give up!
We'll keep our hope alive.
We'll always show our love.
We'll work together for a better world.
