Phatcharaphorn (Yui) Phermkaaew

School Director


Kru Yui is originally from Phatthalung, in the deep south of Thailand. She began her educational career at UWC Thailand 6 years ago. In her time away, Kru Yui graduated with a Ph.D. in Educational Administration. She also holds two Master’s Degrees in Educational Administration and in Business Administration. Her work experience prior to joining our school includes time at two other International Schools in Phuket (Head Start and BISP), in both academic and non-academic roles. 

As an educator, Kru Yui enjoys collaborating with staff, students and parents to develop the learning pedagogy and community and support all members of a school community to continue to evolve and grow together. She always learns new things for developing herself and has worked hard to continually upgrade her role by attending additional training courses and workshops.

She really loves to become a part of the school to support UWC Thailand. She strongly believes that UWC Thailand is a ‘family’ school, where our students study and live happily side by side.
