There are many paths to the future. At Taoyuan American School we prepare our students in such a way that they may choose their path and be prepared to lead lives of profound intellectual, creative, and social consequence. We are a bridge. Our students begin here, their minds open and eager, their goals and aspirations for the future setting their course. It is our duty as educators and guides to cultivating within them the intellectual and emotional fortitude to take on the challenges ahead. Our community bridges the traditions of the West with the spirit of the East. Our American-based educational program is augmented by a deep respect for learning, development, and achievement. Through our academic program, the rigor and discipline that we instill in our students, we have also become a bridge to the best American colleges and universities, and indeed colleges around the world. For many students, we are a bridge to a more thoughtful and articulated future. Bridging the development of students into engaged citizens and human beings is a rich and rewarding aspect of the Taoyuan American School experience.
We consider it a privilege to work with your children every day to help them progress through their educational journey. We believe that each student has a gift to share with the world, and we work hard to unlock their highest potential. We have high expectations of our students, and we have high expectations of ourselves to help all students learn and grow into well-rounded citizens and critical thinkers. TYAS aims to develop leadership skills, social and emotional skills, and academic skills to prepare students for success not only in school but for life-long experiences.
TYAS students will be taught to view themselves as learners and to think about what it looks like to be a good learner and thinker. Critical thinking and problem-solving skills are as important as content knowledge. All students need to acquire the analytical, evaluative, and creative skills to apply such thinking toward becoming successful in the jobs of the future. To help our students be successful, we help them understand what is required of them to be good learners inside and outside of the classroom. Students learn about qualities and learning behaviors such as: taking positive risks, viewing errors as opportunities, working to recover from a mistake, giving and receiving feedback, asking questions, collaborating with peers, setting goals, planning with a purpose, and tracking their progress. Students need both challenges and support to grow as learners, and we look forward to helping students maximize their growth at TYAS.
Taoyuan American School strives to be a model international school offering a broad and challenging American-based education to students from diverse cultural backgrounds. Our Mission is to help our students become diligent, resilient, and adaptable, and to equip them with the skills to further their education and obtain personal fulfillment. We wish for them to become independent, socially responsible individuals capable of thriving in the rapidly changing world of the 21st century. We provide an integrated curriculum that utilizes cutting-edge technology within a caring and respectful learning community to ensure high academic achievement and personal growth.
