MY UMC, MY STORIES

During class time, teachers delivered all the lessons professionally and patiently. They always put a lot of time and effort in helping us prepare for assessments and exams. Taiwanese counsellors always took great care of us, both during and after school.

Kuo, I-Hsuan EileenGrade 12

During my study at UMC, I was lucky to be taught by caring teachers and staff which were always there to help us achieve our goals. They helped me to improve and I successfully was accepted to my dream university. The learning environment was very friendly. Great school!

Arshia RayrameshGrade 12

When I was at UMC High School, I had a great experience learning in school and I made many friends from different countries. Also, it provided me an opportunity to learn some courses that I have never learned before, such as international business.
