__**Why is this school an international school and why is an international school better then a normal German school?**__

-this school should bring people from all over the world together and not only from Germany -people who aren't from Germany, for example a boy from another country would travel somewhere, because of the parent's job -so all over the world he can go to an internatiol school -there you have the same curriculum, by an international school you have every where on the world the same international baccalolaurea and it would be easier not easy, but easier to change the school from one international to another one - you have a good flexibility

__**What are your expectations on this school? And what are the goals of this school?**__

-Mr. Strothoff wants that this school will be the best school in Germany and not only in Hessen -Mr. Lee expectations on this school are very high. He wants to work somewhere where it is excellent, the students are happy and content, have a quality education, that's more important then getting everytime the highest grade and extra grades - he likes the MYP because it's good to make the education existable to all, the students are happy and they are chiving, that's his school goal

__**Why do they want that we have a school uniform?**__

-uniforms are always big debates, but the main focus is, as a student you don't have to worry about your clothes, sometimes students in the age between 12-14 and to 18 years, fashion, clothes and body image etc. are really important for them, so sometimes they become concentrated more on what they look like and not what is important at school -with the school uniform there is no competition between the students -two main reasons: - everyone is dressed same, simple and funcitonally -it brakes down the problem like competitions, because of the clothes


 * __Why did they invent this coat of arms for our school uniform?__**


 * __Why do they equip our school with so much technology? Why do other schools also use so much technology?__**

-education has changed so much over the years, they are different ways of teaching -in the past the teachers were seen as a person who gives you the information and knows everything, and we are expected to write it down and know all this information -but now it has changed: the idea they are trying to cature the different ways of learning for each person: learning with the acitivboard, the teacher is standing in the front of the class and is able to give the students this information and then they think about it and then the teachers can show it to them aswell with the overheadprojector -with the laptop you can activily learning and try to find the answer by your own, for example you use the internet -in the past it was like the teacher talk to you, you listen to them and write everything down and then you have to learn it -so technology is also really important for your life later, you have to know how it works -we live in this generation and for us as students it's normal for example to make an interview like this with our smartphones and record things like this and don't write only notes

__**Who had the idea to build this school? Who is Mr. Strothoff?**__

-Mr. Strothoff he was the founder of this school and he is the head of the MHK, he is a buisness man and this school is also a buisness,he had to work very hard from his start on to geht this position right now, now he is in a position to built an international school for this campus and bring something back to the community

__**Why are the teachrs teaching in English?**__

-because it is an international school ;)

__**Why are you the MYP coordinator and not the PYP coordinator?**__

- Mr. Lee, he has a lot of experience with the MYP, he trained to teach them in a british High School in the age 11-16 -he works with younger students as well -he likes to be a subject teacher, so in the PYP you are supposed to be a class teacher and he likes to have a curriculum behin him instead -coordinator, because he likes the aspect of teaching and the role of an administer
