Helen Leung——Class of 2011

• "Yew Chung will always hold a special place in my heart because it instilled in me the knowledge, skills, and values to grow into the person that I am today. My secondary school years gave me the opportunity to explore my interests and challenge myself, such as in developing my critical thinking and leadership skills. I also enjoyed the academic rigor of the IB programme. Some extra-curricular activity highlights include starting the Global Issues Club, participating in the GYLC and Model UN conferences, as well as launching the UNIT-E Magazine in Beijing! I am deeply grateful to have had the opportunity learn and grow in Yew Chung.
  Helen achieved an outstanding 45 out of 45 in her IBDP at YCIS Beijing. This earned her a place to study her BA in Social Sciences at the University of Hong Kong, for which she was awarded First Class Honours, and an MSc in Refugee and Forced Migration Studies at the University of Oxford. She is now based in the Middle East, working for a think tank that informs humanitarian operations in Syria.
  "Based in the Middle East, I currently lead a team of Syrians to conduct humanitarian assessments and programme evaluation for governments, the UN and NGOs to inform humanitarian operations and policies in Syria."

Russell Ng——Class of 2015

• • Russell Ng graduated from YCIS Beijing in 2015 with 41 points in the IBDP. This set him in good stead for his university degree of History, Politics and Economics at University College London.
    

    "I would not be who I am today if not for YCIS Beijing."
    

    "Throughout my time, the very many caring teachers nurtured my interest in Economics, Politics and Performing Arts. From my first day at the school, I was introduced to Model United Nations, speech and debate, as well as musical theatre. Over time, I was given the opportunity to play lead roles in many musicals, volunteer for many causes I am passionate about, and even serve as a leader of the Student Council. I also had the honour of representing the school as a student ambassador in many events and hosting four Global Community Days. This was all alongside an academically rigorous education, where the school pushed us to do our very best, ensuring we made the most of our education. I am still pursuing these interests today, and as I am looking to make an impact in the larger world, I am eternally grateful that YCIS Beijing set me on the right foot."
    

Rock——Class of 2017

• • • Rock's 41 points in IBDP took him on to study Engineering at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. He found that the opportunities afforded to him at YCIS Beijing continue to influence his academic interests as he completes his degree.
      

      "As a university student right now, I have a distinct interest and passion in STEM related fields. This wasn't clear to me until the final two years of my decade-long journey with YCIS. I think I was seen as more of a 'musical' kid than a 'science' kid in my early secondary school life. I was always part of the orchestra, moving gradually from 'Violin 3' to 'Violin 1', even taking IGCSE Music. However, being involved in Performing Arts exposed me to some more technical elements such as backstage management and light/sound control, which I found very interesting. I was also given the opportunity to co-ordinate light and sound for the school musicals.
