Catalogo Greenwich Primaria 2020

HISTORY Greenwich was created in 2001 as a division of Editorial Norma, aiming to contribute to English Teaching as a Foreign language process. Aware of the importance of English as a lingua franca in a globalized world, in 2004 Greenwich began its expansion throughout countries such as Mexico, Ecuador, Guatemala, El Salvador, Costa Rica and Peru. Since its creation, Greenwich has offered materials based on recent developments in general methodologies, cutting-edge pedagogical approaches and also on our student’s cultural backgrounds, interests and feelings. Far from a traditional style, these materials also reflect the evolution of new trends around the world, allowing teachers and students to have access to up-to-date resources. As an outcome, a variety of printed and digital resources which have reached over 4 million students have been developed. Today, Greenwich makes a difference in the market with its catalog. Our team is committed to offering children and teenagers the opportunity to learn to communicate effectively in English by stretching their own world and showing them that their minds have no boundaries. Greenwich, like people’s minds, has no boundaries either.

Greenwich Keeps innovating to push new boundaries, by helping new generations to learn English.
