SIFC has adopted the traditional counseling system of first-class schools in the UK, implementing the modern educational concept, and empowering students to achieve the goal of "self-driving, self-management, and self-fulfillment". Counselors provide students with support in terms of psychology, ethics, health, study, life, social circle, family, and other aspects. An original "826 student growth model” is applied to keep track of students’ updated development. In the one-to-one communication with counselors, students can have full opportunities to think deeply, express actively, and obtain exclusive guidance services.

SIFC counselors are all overseas returnees who have received international education. They are both role models and mentors, understanding and giving reasonable suggestions to students in need of help. Counselors, as teachers as well as friends to the students, are in close collaboration with them.
