Word from a Parent:
"How time flies! Matthew has been studying at Yew Wah for one year now. From the very beginning, in the early adaptive stages to now, we have grown to love the school. Matthew joined K3 in August, and we were all surprised to find such big changes in him. From his living habits, language, approach and ability in art, and his general approach to learning, he has developed into a more curious and passionate kid. A big part of Yew WahÕs philosophy is nurturing good learning dispositions. Through working with teachers, we know as parents how we can help and motivate our children, how to increase their curiosity and initiative. Thanks to Yew Wah for providing us with this platform!"
– Michelle and Xuan Li (China), parents of Matthew (age 3)
