Some teachers are really nice but some are absolutely not. The students there are average. Some are nice and some aren't. I have gotten into some drama and it has been terrible. My experience is not the best at this school. However, I am glad to have met some wonderful people at this school. The schoolwork is a lot at this school and some teachers don't care about the stress it has on students, especially on those who are currently applying for college. The resources are also very poor.

This school is extremely focused on academics, and takes its study of chinese very seriously. While there is pretty alright academics, the student support is not all there, and there isn't really a sense of community as the school is really competitive. It's not for everyone, and it's definitely not for me but I think some people would like it.

I like how they try the help students in classes but there are some teacher that were a little too strict. And beware, this school is extremely poor so you buy everything yourself. But overall it's fine.
