Yew Wah International Education Services are founded upon Yew Chung Education Foundation’s experience in offering quality international education in Hong Kong and Mainland China. Yew Wah has developed a unique international education curriculum for young children; we offer a rich, child-friendly, nurturing environment. There are one English teacher and one Chinese teacher in our international classes, which allows children to gain knowledge and experience of different languages and cultures, as facilitated by our professional Chinese and Western teachers. We adhere to a child-centered philosophy and advocate protecting children’s rights. We focus on the holistic and harmonious development of children and nurture good learning dispositions in them. We help our students grow up with awareness of independence, environmental conservation, and their role as global citizens. We believe this translates into a solid foundation for their sustainable development and pursuit of lifelong learning.
