Forbes Talks x ISP: Learning How to Learn for the Future

We are proud to share that St. George Barcelona was represented at the recent Forbes Talks x ISP event, held at Forbes House in Madrid. The session brought together students from across ISP schools to explore one of the most relevant topics for today’s generation: how to better understand ourselves in order to make informed decisions about the future.

The event featured renowned neuroscientist Nazareth Castellanos, who guided students through a fascinating discussion on how the brain works during adolescence, and how factors such as attention, emotional regulation, and physical wellbeing play a crucial role in learning and decision-making. In a world shaped by rapid technological change and the rise of artificial intelligence, students were encouraged to see their future not as a fixed path, but as something that can be actively developed through self-awareness and adaptability.

A special mention goes to Patrick T., who proudly represented St. George Barcelona and actively contributed to the discussion by raising thoughtful questions about focus and study habits. His participation reflects the curiosity and engagement we aim to foster in all our students.

Throughout the session, key ideas emerged around the importance of building strong habits, such as maintaining a healthy lifestyle, exercising regularly, and engaging in continuous cognitive stimulation, as foundations for both academic success and personal growth. Students were also reminded of the value of embracing uncertainty, learning from mistakes, and making decisions based on personal motivation rather than external pressure.

Opportunities like this, made possible through ISP, provide our students with valuable real-world insights and the chance to engage with leading experts. They play an important role in preparing them to become confident, reflective, and forward-thinking global citizens.
