ACADEMICS
We are a community of learners who strive to create an emotionally safe and engaging environment while delivering high-quality English language instruction with an American standards-based curriculum.
We’re now eleven years into our experiment and incredibly proud of the outcome.
The Elementary School is a learning community that encourages students to work together, develop compassion, and to actively contribute. Our students are empowered to work and support each other through play and academics, while maintaining positive behavior. Learning within an international community, our students also build the social skills and relationships that are necessary in an ever-changing world.
Middle school is the ideal opportunity for young adolescents to explore who they are and how they fit into the world. Through the iterative process, students will come to an understanding of who they are as learners, what they’re passionate about and ultimately how they will contribute to a better tomorrow
Synergetic collaboration and creativity are hallmarks of our High School. Transformative thinking and the ability to thrive in challenging circumstances will distinguish KISJ graduates.
Our dorm staff truly love working with students and are committed to building a community where everyone feels happy, safe, and included. It’s important to us that dorm students have opportunities throughout the year to acquire new interests and skills, pursue their passions, and connect with people from different cultural backgrounds. Life is great in the dorms
KISJ has a team of dedicated ELL specialists who collaborate with other teachers to co-plan, co-teach, co-assess, and co-reflect in order to support the needs of our language learners across all domains of language (listening, speaking, reading, and writing).

Spanish Immersion in the Heart of Spain. KISJ high school students in the Spanish program embarked on an unforgettable cultural journey to Spain, exploring the vibrant cities of Madrid and Barcelona. This immersive experience allowed them to connect with Spain’s rich history, art, cuisine, and stunning landscapes. In 𝗠𝗮𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗱, they toured iconic landmarks like the Royal Palace, the Prado and Reina Sofía museums, Retiro Gardens, and more, all while savoring the city’s delicious culinary offerings. In 𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗮, students visited the historic Santa María del Mar Church and the famous Barcelona Cathedral, strolled along the beach and marina, and explored the architectural wonders of Park Güell, Sagrada Família, and other masterpieces by Gaudí. They also ventured to Montjuïc Stadium and indulged in Spain's mouthwatering dishes—paella, churros with hot chocolate, tapas, and pinchos. This enriching experience not only deepened their cultural understanding, but also left them with cherished memories that will last a lifetime. #tbt #KISJExperience #kisjeju #kisjcommunity #kisjejucampus #kis제주 #internationalschool #gec #KISJDRAGONS #koreainternationalschooljejucampus #CulturalJourney #KISJSpanishAdventure
