Destination tips

Explore the best places to study abroad

Choosing the right country for an international educational experience is no small decision. Each destination offers a unique environment that can make a difference in your child's personal, academic and linguistic growth..

At Garabi Education, we take this choice very seriously, that is why we we collaborate only with trusted centres and programmeswith whom we share values such as safety, close support and educational excellence. The destinations we present below have been selected not only for the quality of their institutions, but also for the opportunities they provide for students to feel accompanied, motivated and enriched from the very first day.

Each country has its own educational personality, academic system and way of life.. There are options for those seeking tradition and prestige, such as the UK or Switzerland, and also for those who prefer a more practical, hands-on approach, such as Ireland or Canada. Other countries, such as New Zealand and Australia, offer innovative alternatives that are perfectly suited to those who wish to take advantage of the southern hemisphere's academic calendar.

Our aim is to help each family find the destination that best aligns with their child's aspirations, interests and profile, taking into account key factors such as length of programme, language, type of school, employability or access to universities.
