Tatsuto Hasegawa (Japan)

“I’ve studied in St.John’s International School for 1 year and 4 months. I had really good time with their teachers and students. My first impression of St.John’s International School was “SMALL.” St.John’s International School is my 2nd school in Canada. I’d studied in Magee Secondary School for three years, but I got kicked out from Vancouver School Board, it’s all because of I was being very bad student. I never listen to teacher’s lesson, I sometimes fell in sleep during class, Never hand in homework and skip classes a lot. I think I did skip class total for 90days a year. I was really really doing bad. I did not even think I was doing bad, I thought being bad student is COOL. But Since I got kicked out from Magee Secondary School, I just realized that I have to change. IT was my turning point. But I knew I can not change even though I want to change, because it is what I did for long time and it became my habit. However I graduated St.John’s School a much faster than I thought. I know why I could graduate successfully. Because teachers, students and the school system have been very nice to me. I was lucky. I had many good friend and I’ve met wise and nice teachers in St.John’s school. And The distance between students and teachers is very nice and confortable. I like THIS school. ”
