Seoul - School Report Question and Answers
Describe the general climate of the grade level that you teach or your child attends:
Welcoming and warm teachers and principals. Terrific academics; flexible environment that is very responsive to my children's needs. I have some kids who are high achievers and they are challenged at KIS. I have one who was behind when we arrived and they provided great push in services that brought him quickly up to grade level in both reading and math. The student body is generally less diverse than I would like, but that is true for all schools in Korea. - May 2016
Both of my children have spent many years in American schools. It seems as though most of their classmates are from America, although they look Korean the students all have families from America or that have spent significant time in the US or Canada. - Nov 2015
It is a small school environment, very friendly, warm and welcoming. My somewhat shy daughter adjusted very well and is totally thriving. I am very happy both as a parent and a teacher there (I don't teach my daughter's grade.) In my opinion, it is by far the most child-friendly early childhood education program in Seoul. - Oct 2015
Similar to Pre-K and Kinder levels of American schools. - May 2015
Strict adherence to rigid rules and very evangelical philosophy. - Feb 2015
