New Oriental School

Founder Yu MinHong and his two partners. 

The one on the very left is the film director. 

     

The film that is based on their real life stories. 

New Oriental School was founded in 1993 by Yu Minhong, who was a student from Peking University. The other two business partner are his friends. Their company and their dream is about learning English and go to America. Their stories were filmed by a Hong Kong director few years ago and it was such a hit and touching because excluding the regular school we attend, New Oriental School is the second "school" and also a place to grow our dreams. 

I learned my TOEFL, SAT, IELTS there. And many other students just like me did the same in order to go abroad. Yu Minhong had an American dream when he first founded the school. The visa to US was very limit in 1990s. He did not get the visa but his friend did. He determined to learn good english and to teach students to learn good english that one day, everyone can go to America with good quality English to see this country and study or even live there. Teachers in New Oriental School are young and energetic. They are all good at a specific part of English and they all have their own learning style and patterns, which should be very effective, to teach students.
