She isn't the type of student who sits down and focuses instantly on a lecture.Sometimes, she intentionally slows her pace before entering the school gates, captivated by the swaying rice fields, standing quietly for a long time. It isn't a distraction; it’s her way of connecting with the world.Occasionally quirky with a leaping mind, her questions often leave teachers speechless for a few seconds. In a traditional framework, such a child might easily be labeled as "unfocused." But we know she isn't lacking focus—she is simply understanding the world in her own way.To Be Understood, Not CorrectedAt our international school, education is never about fitting children into a single mold. It is about designing a learning path that truly suits each individual.Her curriculum was customized: The pace of learning, the depth of discussion, and the mode of expression were all meticulously adjusted to her unique traits. Our international faculty didn't rush to provide answers; instead, they offered patient companionship, allowing her to articulate the ideas in her mind, bit by bit.Slowly, we witnessed something vital— When she was understood, her focus and depth of thought became quiet yet incredibly powerful.Success is Never an AccidentLater, she achieved an IELTS score of 8.5. With a maximum score of 9, only a handful of students in Taiwan reach this level.This wasn't a miracle. it was the natural result of being respected, listened to, and supported over time. When a child is believed in, language is no longer just a testing tool; it becomes her way of thinking, understanding, and connecting with the world.This is the education we believe in: Not every child is the same, And not every child is suited for the same path.But every child deserves to be seen, understood, and supported—tenderly yet firmly.She was captivated by the rice fields and fascinated by the birds outside our school; And now, the world is waiting for her.

When Jesse first joined us, his academic performance wasn't particularly standout. With an elder sister who excelled, he naturally carried the weight of expectations and pressure; both from the outside world and from within.However, he always maintained his distinct personality. He could be mischievous with a bright, hearty laugh, yet when focused, he possessed the ability to sit in quiet reflection, slowly finding his own balance. Throughout his years of learning here, we have witnessed his steady accumulation of stability, his maturing thought process, and his increasingly organized approach to challenges.Under the school’s personalized guidance and support, Jesse didn't have to sacrifice his individuality. Instead, he challenged himself step-by-step: taking the SAT, preparing for the IELTS, and recently achieving an impressive score of 7.0. This result is more than just a display of ability; it is a testament to his self-confidence and inner growth.Growth is the Accumulation of Respect and UnderstandingTo us, a child’s growth is never just about stacking up test scores. It is about whether they can maintain their sense of self and find their own rhythm within an environment of understanding and respect.Jesse has proven through his own journey: Every child operates in a different time zone. As long as they are seen and guided, they can move forward steadily toward a wider world.

Small Stature, Big Vision: A G11 Student’s Quest for ExcellenceIan Tsai, a Grade 11 student at United Education International School (UEIS), brings a diverse educational background from his time at an international school in Japan. Immersed in our American-style education, Ian has consistently demonstrated exceptional linguistic proficiency, achieving a perfect score of 9.0 in IELTS Speaking and a remarkable overall band score of 8.0.

He maintains a vibrant personality on campus—playful yet deeply focused. Under the guidance of our holistic education framework, these traits have led him beyond the classroom to the COP30 UN Climate Change Conference this November, where he showcased exemplary leadership and social responsibility.As one of the world's most influential climate summits, COP30 was held in the heart of the Amazon—Belém, Brazil—under the theme "Climate is Life: Region of Solutions," focusing on the sustainable coexistence of humanity and nature.Practicing Global Vision: A Journey of 800 KilometersRepresenting his community alongside two youth partners, Ian undertook a grueling 100-hour journey covering over 800 kilometers to reach Belém. Rather than sightseeing, Ian immediately engaged in grassroots action—venturing into the Amazon rainforest to observe environmental issues firsthand and advocate for climate action.For Ian, this journey represents a vital link between the American-style curriculum and real-world global issues. Far more valuable than any grade is the global perspective, cross-cultural communication skills, and the ability to translate knowledge into action cultivated through UEIS’s globally-minded education.The Significance of COP30: Cultivating Future Global LeadersThis year’s COP30 aligns perfectly with the UEIS vision to empower students as responsible, engaged citizens of the world.
