Reviews of Pattison High School (University)

Alex W.X (Alexlivesindesert)

I would not call it a high school. They only get six room and one toilet. They only have one story for the campus. And there’s no gym at the school but they will help you get membership from the gym cross the street. I would give no star if I can. Such a disappointment to Canadian education system

I have been in Pattison High School one year already. I had a wonderful time here. I met great teachers and friends here. Pattison High School is a good start for an international student like me . It also will help you ready for the next step in Canada.

I'm glad that Pattison High School offered me a scholarship. They gave me the opportunity of studying in Canada. It is the best school I had ever been. The classes are small, so the students are able to ask questions more frequently for the teachers. Thank you PHS!

I'm having a great time studying at Pattison. The teachers are always friendly and help me a lot. Besides, Miss Stella is the best advisor I've ever met. She gave me a lot of useful advice. 5 stars for her. :")

(Translated) Paterson High School is a student-oriented school. The professionalism and dedication of teachers and staff are not only reflected in the care and education of students, but also help students to improve their academic progress. They also actively guide parents and adolescent children. Effective communication. The friend's child from a rebellious child who did not attend class finally graduated from high school and was admitted to the university. We are very grateful to Paterson High School President Daniel and counselor Ann! Thank you for everything you have done for the kids! (Original) 派特森高中是一所以学生为本的好学校，老师和职员的专业和敬业不仅表现在对学生倾注的关心和教育帮助学生在学业上不断地进步，还积极地引导家长与青春期的孩子进行有效的沟通。朋友的孩子从一个叛逆的不上课的孩子到最后能顺利地高中毕业并且被大学录取，我们非常感谢派特森高中的校长Daniel和辅导员安老师！谢谢你们为孩子们所做的一切！

(Translated) "Don't go to this school, this school is a pit person. I used to be this school, experience talk" I agree with this classmate. My child also read this school. The tuition fee was paid for one school year. After reading for a month, Miss TIFFany of the school said that she could not refund the fee. The pit people pitted. Why the Vancouver government still let this school Continue to go on. Please tell everyone not to go to this school to read. And here the teacher will only give you 50 points to let you read the same class many times. (Original) "别去这所学校，这个学校就是坑人的。我以前就是这个学校的，经验之谈" 很同意这个同学的说法.我的小孩也是读了这个学校.学费缴了一学年.读了一个月.该校的TIFFany 小姐说无法退费.坑人坑到底.为何温哥华政府还让这种学校继续开下去.请大家告诉大家别去这个学校念.还有这里老师都只会给你50分让你同一课在念很多遍.变相坑钱

I could not agree more to give Pattison High school a 5 star. Teachers and staffs are supportive, knowledgeable and approachable. The principal sometimes is over-strict on students about using their language at school ( they have English only policy), but it's good for students themselves.

Teachers are nice, they help me many times during class. Even when I am not a smart student and my English is not good, they never complain and alway cheer me up.

Great location, perfect friendly atmosphere and awesome principle, but no fun beside the studying. For e.g no boat cruise and no prom, just one activity day. All in all, if pattison is the last chance for you to study in Canada, go for it but be ready for a hard time !

Dan Chiarlone

The best thing about the Pattison community is how welcoming they are. Within a week of arrival I knew almost all of the staff members and students. Pattison is not only a school of knowledge but a school of life as it taught me the true meaning and value of friendship. This, I will never forget.

School should have nurse room for student who is sick sometime =)))))))

Great and friendly teachers!

Pattison High School was my first school in Vancouver. I learned a lot of things there. All teachers and staffs working there are so nice to me and they were always willing to help me. I really love the study atmosphere there and I felt I did enjoy school time there. Also the activity day and variety events, all of us together, shared lot of happy time and were being very encouraged to stay here. All the best to my school~ Thanks

Thanks to the teachers and advisors! I received great support when studying here.

Pattison High School is a great place to work, with faculty and staff that are professional, considerate, and fun! The diverse student body creates the opportunity for exposure to numerous peoples and their respective cultures. The campus is conveniently located in the heart of downtown Vancouver, with its unique and vibrant atmosphere.

I love this place!!! I started working at Pattison since October 2005. Pattison High School is definitely a great place to study and work. Pattison High School aims to inspire students to grow, learn, and reach their personal goals and to empower them with life-enriching experiences by delivering a quality secondary education that prepares them to achieve success and satisfaction in their lives. Pattison High School - Highly recommended!!!

To be honest I had an amazing time at Pattison High school.I attend college now and let me say that I made friends in Pattison High School that I still keep in touch with to this day.I was able to improve a lot in my studies ;due to the small size of classrooms which made me feel very comfortable.The location was also extremely convenient because it is in the heart of downtown.I just thought to leave a comment because it is the least I can do after graduating from such a well established school.I had priceless memories as a student in Pattison High school and at the end of the day that is very important.

It is a good place to study, I studied there three months during summer three years ago, all teachers are really responsible and kind to students. It is a good experience. :)

Soroush Gh

They stole my money :) dont go there for your own good.

nguyen viet duc pham

This is a great school, teachers are really nice. Love this school so much.

Steven Wang

I spent one year and half in this high school, the experience here was good. I appreciate the opportunity the school provided me so that I could speed up my high school life. Also, the location of the school is right in the downtown, which is convenient for students. Despite the fact that all the high schools have hardworking or lazy students, the teachers and faculties here are very responsible for students.

this might be be worst school in Vancouver. Students paid $22k a year and all they got is 1 toilet. There are no local students, all you see will be Chinese people. the hallway is too small, no gym and their cafeteria can't even hold 30 students. The school is way smaller than what showed in their advertisement. Think twice before you go to this school.

(Translated) Pattison is the worst school in world! This is the school, it is simply the size of the pool platform! Can this also be called a school? Students who want to go to Pattison actually have a lot of choices, such as Columbia College in Columbia or Coquitlam College and others are all pattison. Look at the multiple choices! Don't go to pattison! The advice of people coming over! (Original) Pattison is the worst school in world！这哪里是学校，根本就是游泳池大小的草台班子嘛！这也能叫学校？想去pattison的学生其实还有很多选择的 ，像downtown的哥伦比亚学院或者高贵林学院还有其他的一些 都是完爆pattison的啊 多看看多选选！千万别去pattison ！过来人的忠告！

great school perfect environment

My family pays over 7200$!! A year And what we get in return is one washroom for 200!!! Students, this one washroom is dirty all the time probably because 200 students use it and it gets cleaned once at the end of the day and that's it. Please this is unacceptable

Ma Nguyen

My niece and my 2 sons went there to finish their high school. My niece and my 2 sons used the experiences they gained from Pattison high school to springboard them into Universities. After Pattison, my niece finished her BBA from SFU and now works for PwC. My elder son is studying Civil Engineering Degree at BCIT and my youngest one is finishing his high school there. We found that my kids got great attention from teachers because the class size is small, so we can deal with their issues on a timely basis so nothing can go unnoticed. Highly recommend for not only international students but also for local students as well.

(Translated) c Super poor school, don't go if your brain is not bad! ! Now the Chinese network like vanpeople and vansky has been deleted after saying it is not good! Is the relationship strong? School difference! 99% of Chinese people, the quality of teachers is not high! Every time I see an advertisement on TV, I want to vomit! Also the cradle of famous North American schools? It is a fire pit! Really learn how to be in pattison! As for the tiffany and other advising are just pulling people into the school to collect money, the principal will only say something nice, hypocritical! My biggest failure in Vancouver was to choose pattison! (Original) c超级差的学校，脑子没坏的就不要去了！！现在vanpeople和vansky之类的中文网一说不好就被删了！关系很强吗？ 校风差！99%的中国人，老师素质也不高！每次看到电视上的广告都想吐！还北美名校的摇篮呢 ？就是火坑！真正学习好的哪有在pattison的！至于那个tiffany还有其他什么advising都是只管拉人进学校收钱的，校长就只会说些好听的，虚伪！我在温哥华最失败的就是选择了pattison！

I knew I would need to study abroad to really improve my English, that lead me to Pattison High school. I advanced my education quickly at Pattison High school. Getting involved at Pattison High school helped me to make connections and found awesome friends. Community of friends at Pattison High school is fantastic, we all treat one other like family.

Alex Liu

Be careful guys, this private high school will show u two types of contacts. The first one is the contract u will sign ur name. Which says the Pattison will refund ur tuition when u will graduate. The second one will be shown when u are asking for the refund, this is the contract u never see before. This contract has all kinds of conditions and excuses which will refuse to give ur tuition back. That's the little trick they used which took my 4500 dollar few years ago. And I am not alone. Think twice when u decide to choose this high school.

When I first came to Pattison High School it was in the middle of the semester. I had just moved to Canada and no school would accept me because I was almost 18 and that would put me in the adult program. Pattison was like a friendly and multi-cultural community and all the staff and teachers were really welcoming and close to the students. I even met people here that are now some of my best friends. The school also helped me a lot with my courses and my credit transfers, considering I didn't know much about education in B.C.

Winter Haofeng Feng

Had a really great experience with the teachers in Pattison. They were so dedicated to helping students who struggled. A well-organized high school.

Minh Anh Đặng

For me, studying at Pattison high school was my great experience. The teachers taught me very carefully and made me improve a lot. Especially, the teacher I remember the most is Ms.S, she was so funny and I enjoyed studying in her class. Besides, I also like Ms. Stella who is one of the advisors in my school :)))))

Being a recent graduate of UBC, I was glad to land an intern position at my alma mater. Having walked its halls as a student and now working on the administrative side of the school, I am able to fully appreciate the quality and care that was placed in my education. The staff and teachers take great pride in their work and are passionate about helping our students succeed not only academically but in the extracurricular world as well. Stationed in the heart of downtown Vancouver, it provides an excellent gateway to B.C. culture. The cozy nature of the campus and a diverse student population helped foster relationships that I carry to this day.

Michael He

I spent one and half years at Pattison High School. All teachers and staff here at Pattison are passionate with helping students to succeed in terms of academics and personal development by exercising their creative teaching styles and encouraging students‘ engagement with the local community. Pattison is definitely an educational institution that has successfully defined and carried out its mission statement, “We don’t teach a class, we teach individual in a class”.

The principle Mr. Chowne and the administration assistant Lynn are both very kind. They tried very hard to help my daughter register an AP exam, after she had some registration complications, even though it is already way past the deadline. We almost gave up because all other schools said no, but Mr. Chowne phoned College Board multiple times to get us a special registration. We are very appreciative of their warm-hearted help!

I went to Pattison High School 4 years ago I find myself in a safe, warm and comfortable place.The teachers are all extremely loyal and they try their best to improve us . I truly love it there.

(Translated) As a student who successfully transferred out of pattison and then graduated happily in other high schools, I would like to give some advice to parents and students who want to go to patison, both good and bad. The first is the bad side: 1. School environment (pattison is located on the first floor of a building in downtown, similar to the general place as a swimming pool or leisure room. The only one in the school is the road leading to each classroom and office. Two people cannot walk side by side because of narrow The length is about 8,90 meters? The amount is too uncertain. The school is very small, I think it is the smallest school in the whole temperature area! So I can imagine what the big classroom is like. Right, there is no bell Look at the table by yourself!) It doesn't look like a regular school-_-# 2. The students of the school (the students are really all Chinese, [not in contact with local students] and there are a few foreigners who have been deceived to pttison. They are also very poor. They were originally rich in public schools or other students. The school may have a good high school, but unfortunately they have been cheated. I have talked with some of them, I don’t like pattison very much. They can’t make friends here, and they feel isolated, want to transfer, school is not Tuition fees are refunded. Most of the Chinese students who come here are unsuccessful in the public school, and they are afraid of being sent away. The TV, advertisements, and mediations come in, and the students are also bad.) Ok, let's say the benefits. There are all kinds of net red in the school. Every day you go to school, you can watch fashion shows. There are all kinds of new bags and shoes for all kinds of luxury goods, but there is always something you can't afford? Then there was a variety of high imitations, and people who liked to communicate with each other. It is a good place to learn to distinguish luxury goods. In short, pattison is not a good school, loves to pour money, and at the same time the school is basically all Chinese. The school manager is said to be also Chinese, and the management model is also very similar to China. Imagine why you should let your child go to this school? [[To such a school, there is no contact with foreigners, and you can’t understand the local customs. What is the difference between going to such a school and going to school in China? 】 As for what I said is true, anyone who has been to patison knows well, tiffany does not waste time returning to me. You spend your time thinking about packaging the exterior of this school, and it’s just a waste! (Original) 作为一个成功转出pattison然后在其他高中愉快毕业的学生，在这给各位想去pattison的家长学生们提供点参考意见，有好有坏。 首先是不好的方面： 1. 学校环境（pattison位于downtown某个大楼的一层，类似于一般作为游泳池或休闲室的地方。学校里面【唯一的一条】通往各个教室以及办公室的路，两个人不能并排走，因为窄，长度大约是8，90米？没量过不确定。学校很小，我觉得是整个大温地区最小的学校了！所以也能想象大教室是什么样了。对了，也没有上下课铃，自己看表！）看起来真不像正规学校-_-# 2. 学校的生源（学生真的是基本全是中国人，【接触不到当地学生】还有个别几个被骗到pttison的外国人，他们也是挺可怜的，本来在公校或其他生源丰富的学校可能会有个美好高中，可惜他们被骗过来了。我曾和其中几个交流过，都不是很喜欢pattison。他们在这交不到朋友，而且感到被孤立，想转学吧学校又不退学费。而来这的中国学生大多都是公校毕不了业的，劣迹斑斑怕遣送的。还有就是被电视，广告，中介忽悠进来的，好学生来这也变坏了） 好了，说好处吧。学校里有各种网红啊，每天你去学校都能像看时装展啊，各种奢侈品的新款包包鞋子应有尽有啊，但是呢总有买不起的不是？于是又涌现出了各种高仿啊，喜欢的人一起交流啊。是个学习分辨奢侈品的好地方呢。 总之呢，pattison不是个好学校，爱坑钱，同时学校里呢基本全是中国人。校董啊 据说也都是中国人，管理模式也很像中国，想象一下您为什么要让孩子去这种学校呢？【【去这样的学校接触不到外国人，体会不到当地的风土人情，去这样的学校和在国内上学有什么区别呢？】】至于我说的这些是不是真的，凡是去过pattison的人都心知肚明，tiffany不用浪费时间回我了。你花心思把这个学校的外表包装的再好，里面也不过是糟糠！
