About The Head Master
Mrs. Yana Holcomb had a vision as a young mother living in the heart of the largest Asian population in Los Angeles and as a Russian American, that her children needed to be prepared to become Global Citizens who had culturally diverse awareness, top-level education and strong need to be multi-lingual.
After raising two children who are tri-lingual, with fluency in Mandarin, Russian and English and who have extensive training in chess, Abacus Math, STEM, music, world travel and a healthly respect for all nationalities, Yana realized that she could help other International parents realize this same dream for their children...which then led to founding of Elite International Studies.
