Yew Wah International Education School of Yantai sits in the northern part of Shandong and is very aware of the proud history of Shandong as the birthplace of Confucius. The teachings of Confucius state: ‘The path for learning greatness is to illuminate the goodness in man, to bring out what is best in people, and to achieve the highest excellence.’
Here at Yew Wah, Yantai we encourage learning through participation and cooperation. We expect students to be considerate, caring and courteous and we promote and expect conscientiousness and achievement.
With today’s global awareness our students must work toward being committed and compassionate world citizens who continually strive to better themselves and others through life-long learning, and world-wide understanding.
We are committed to giving our students an education that will prepare them for the challenges they will encounter when they face the world. They should have a sound understanding of basic academic subjects, a knowledge and appreciation of the arts and an awareness of the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.
Through structured lessons that encourage problem-solving activities, individual and group work and the opportunity to learn using the multi-intelligence framework, our students are given the chance to develop and achieve in a supportive and secure environment.
Our qualified and dedicated staff are strongly committed to treating each student as an individual and giving them the skills and strategies to not only achieve well academically but to also prepare them for the future. We are fortunate to have both bilingual and foreign staff and they work together in a cooperative way to ensure our students receive the best education. Combining the ‘best from the west with the best from the east’ is an important part of our curriculum policy.
We believe in endowing our students with a positive attitude, a compassionate nature and a thirst for learning that will continually inspire them as they progress through life.
