He cites the supportiveness of his parents which they manifest in countless ways including such simple things as preparing good food. He has kind words for his teachers who make classes fun and exciting “to help me keep the passion for academic success burning within me.”
The list of achievers include Cho, Munki(Brian), Che, Bong Jo (Jason), Kim She Yeob (Alexander), Kim Tae Yeob ((T.Y.), Yoo, Hyun Jong (Jeff), Kwon , Ji Hee (Angel), and Park Ye Ji.

A Letter from MITIS Student in Korea, Baek Youn Gi(Alex)

  Good afternoon, my name is Alex (Baek, Youn Gi), who was studying in MITIS from 2009 to 2011. I may think that there're still many people who remember the kid, Alex, who's me. The reason why I'm writing this today is that I really thank again to those people who cared for me. Those people are Dr. Santos, Sir Elmo, Mr. Kwon, our teachers, my classmates, and so on, plus the people who taught me (in many ways, you know)like Sir Peter, Sister Hannah, and Brothers... What could I be like now if I wasn't in the Philippines for 2 years at that time? if I have never met people like you guys? But I was. I have. So I am here right now. I will always remember these people all the time, also if I success. Thank you.

SECOND SMPP: PHYSICS OLYMPICS

Congratulations to the MIT Physics team for being the overall champion in the       concluded 2nd SMPP Physics Olympics held at Ateneo de Manila University.

There were 21 schools who participated in the said competition, and I think MITIS was the first international school that has ever taken part in it.  As coach, I knew it was going to be a difficult to make the first cut-off  but my advice to the team was to make the most out of their opportunity, to follow their dream of  becoming champions, but also, to keep in mind that life is not just about Physics Olympics. It’s the team’s first match and first time to be under any competition pressure.   Hence, it was also a perfect opportunity for them to show what they’ve got.  Off the top of my head, we’ve bitten off more than we could chew, so we had thought of giving it up, yet with tenacity and anticipation, we overcame the challenge and grasped the historic opportunity-winning the first prize in the contest. I was pleased that I was asked to be part of it and that I was able to bring home the bacon. Here comes another challenge, but my preliminary observation has revealed that MITIS team has needed to undertake tough physics training to equip them with some necessary qualifications. I estimate that it will take couple of months to pull everything together.  I really want them to make sure that every area is adequately examined.  Indeed, the existence of this kind of competition has made me pursue teaching as my profession.

MIT International School getting invited by the Workshop of Kyoto University

            Last March 15-19, founding Director of MIT International School, Mr. Hyock Chu Kwon, was invited in the workshop of Kyoto University. In those days, Principals of 20 other High Schools of South Korea, Taiwan, The Philippines, China, Egypt, Indonesia, Malaysia, and other more were invited.          

          For the past months, MITIS, with the help of Kyoto University, has done successful seminars about universities in Japan for multinational students and their parents staying in the Philippines. Moreover, MITIS, as the only Highschool from the Philippines in the workshop, was able to attain a partnership with Kyoto University, which allowed students in MITIS to be given broader opportunities to go to Kyoto University.
