Seminar Report

On Sunday, February 14th 2016, “The YGC Global Education Seminar” was held for students of elementary to high schools and their parents.

We have had the privilege to invite Mr. Thomas E. Hassan, the former principal of the Phillips Exeter Academy from the United States. Mr. Hassan shared his knowledge on the necessary skills to enter into universities in the United States.

Despite the unfortunate weather, hundreds of participants came to attend this special event.
