The main focus of the counseling team at Tsinghua International School is to help students grow in these three domains: Social/Personal, Academic, and Career. We look at each student and try to help them achieve their goals both in, and outside, of the classroom. Our team works very closely with students, teachers, parents, and administration to help connect the many different people in school. You are always welcome to contact us with any questions you may have and we look forward to helping all THIS students achieve everything they want to achieve.

Mission
The primary goal of the counseling program is to help students reach their full potential academically, socially, and emotionally.
