Company Description

Maggio Multicultural Academy (MMA) was organized as a private school in the Dominican Republic in 2016. It began to serve the need to provide a quality educational option for the families living in the Punta Cana/Bávaro area as an English Immersion school, as well as support the underserved children in the community. Since then, the school has evolved and has become a hybrid program, where we provide virtual independent learning to students around the world, as well as facilitated learning in a single location or educational pods. We provide the option of a predominantly individualized independent study program from home with the benefits of local support in certain areas. MMA believes that students learn best when taught how to learn instead of what to learn so that they can facilitate their own learning in their specific learning style. We strive to create an environment that inspires youth to believe they can achieve whatever they set their mind to, discover their God given talent, and live to reach their greatest potential.
