Parent and Student Reviews of Boarding Schools in South Korea

  • NLCS Jeju doesn’t expect children to have outcomes from every experience. Instead, they look for happiness and satisfaction. Children respond well to this philosophy. My daughter became more active, positive and engaged. She feels safe and comfortable with teachers always there for her and supporting her to become a better person.

  • My son is an only child and, before entering into the boarding programme, he was very immature. He has learnt to be more independent and thoughtful – now he is much more mature and even takes care of his parents.

  • I am so grateful for all the opportunities available to students at NLCS Jeju. Through Bryant and after-school activities, I was introduced to sports like badminton and community service programmes like Angel House orphanage visits, and through various societies, I was able to explore the world of dance and become involved in interesting Mathematics. What excited me the most was being able to start my own dance performance project with friends, and through directing this Project MAUM, I gained invaluable experiences not only in choreography but also in creating theatre, editing music, combining different art forms and collaborating with various people.
