About Capstone:

Founded in 2003, Capstone is one of Asia’s leading private educational institutions, focused on high-achieving students in the region. We were founded on the belief that when educators are passionate and are given the best resources, they can launch students into great professional and personal orbits.

With offices across Hong Kong and Beijing, Capstone is at the heart of the education industry in Asia. Our thirteen years of experience combined with our unwavering commitment to our students have given us the expertise and resources to consistently produce students who possess both academic achievement and leadership potential.

Working at Capstone:

No one practice area at Capstone has a monopoly on significance. Here, you can develop curricula for student groups between the ages of 10 and 18, bringing your particular background and skills to the challenge. You can focus on a broader consulting role, providing advice and helping students chart their future paths. If your passion is teaching, you can deliver thoughtful, impactful lessons to highly motivated and curious students.

We work with students studying under a variety of different educational systems, from the American K-12 system, to the British GCE ‘O’ and ‘A’ Levels, to the International Baccalaureate, to the local Hong Kong Diploma in Secondary Education. This exposure to a range of curricula provides valuable insights into how education in Asia mirrors or differs from our instructors’ own experiences.

Regardless of the track that you choose, you will be in a position to drive impact and deliver tangible results. Graduates from our two-year program have gone on to get their Masters in Education at the best universities in the US, been accepted to prestigious law schools, or chosen to make education a full-time career, both here and at other organizations.
