Taipei American School This school is terrific! It is the best. It has the best staff and faculty members that are always so willing to help and are so supportive, they are always there to help. It has a great cafeteria that has so much variety of food that is always so neatly placed and has such variety from sweet to savory to healthy! Also, it has so many extras like a huge technology building that is all inclusive of all types of material. This building has about 4 floors of space to use and they have many amazing machines to help complete projects, such as 3D printers, laser cutters, etc. It is so amazing in general - from the teachers, to the great cafeteria foods for the students, to the amazing extras that are all included. If you are looking for a school in Taipei City, definitely check out Taipei American School. Do you ever want to find an activity that doesn’t take up too much energy and time, yet still has, if not more exciting than other activities? Then, debate is the perfect activity to do! If you're looking for an entertaining yet educational activity to do, you should join the TAS debate club to do the world-wide known activity debate. Even though debate is often interpreted as an activity that people only do to learn, it actually brings lots of entertainment and fun. In addition, teamwork is a very valued skill that not only helps you be successful in school, but also helps you make more friends. And, debate is key to improving your skill of teamwork through working with others. Moreover, because of how valued education is, debate teaches several different topics and educates students about a variety of important things through research. As long as you are practicing speaking in front of multiple people comfortably in debate, it will help build up your confidence and ultimately help you do better in school. If you want an activity to cure your boredom, you should definitely join the TAS debate club!

My experience at this high school had its challenges. There were instances of what I perceived as issues with the school's administration, and there were concerns about the overall mental health and academic environment. One concern I had during my time there was the state of student mental health. It's essential for schools to prioritize the well-being of their students, and I felt that there were times when this could have been improved. Offering more resources and support for students struggling with mental health issues could be beneficial. Additionally, the school's administration has lots of room for improvement. It would be helpful if there were more transparency in decision-making processes and better communication between the administration and students. Clear channels for addressing concerns and feedback would be valuable for everyone. In terms of the academic environment, it's important to note that competition among students can sometimes become toxic. Encouraging a more collaborative and supportive atmosphere could enhance the overall educational experience. While I believe this school has potential, I would advise future students to be prepared for these challenges and consider seeking additional support outside the school if needed. It might not be the ideal place for a full four-year education, but with the right mindset and resources, students can still find value in their time there.

I'm one of the few people within the Class of 2027, and let me just say this, the school's pretty nice, but is INCREDIBLY costly, at ~38,000 USD tuition, it's essentially top of the line. The school theoretically has a much overall faster curriculum with regards to its mathematics department, as well as few others, which forces workload upon many of the students, including me. Most of the staff I've encountered are pretty positive and overall seems to appreciate their work, I'm unsure if this is the doing of their salary, but that's besides the point. Overall a pretty solid start within all departments, there seem to be a reasonable amount of job opportunities, and they're overall welcoming. The student environment is pretty rough, like your run of the mill school, most of the students are pretty rude sometimes, and I've overall heard about the controversy surrounding slurs, which is an oxymoron in regards to the school's prestigious reputation. I'd recommend this school as of right now, but hopefully my opinions won't stagnate as I progress.

Recently TAS produced a show called Beautiful Dreamer: Some people think fairy tales are for little kids, but Beautiful Dreamer is a better version of Sleeping Beauty! The music in the show is great because it matches every scene and the moods aren’t always the same, that’s what made the dance a lot more interesting and fun to watch. The lighting in the performance was great because there were colorful lights and at some point, there were even spotlights. The acting was dramatic but in a good way, it showed the expression on their face and let us have an idea what they are thinking, or what their mood is. The costumes for the dancers were sparkly, the dresses were unique, every one of them had characteristics, as for the elf, they even had pointy ears! If you like live shows, then Beautiful Dreamer is a show just right for you, it is suitable for all ages because it is the inspiration from Sleeping Beauty. If you haven’t watched it yet, then you should check out the show soon!

Founded in 1949, Taipei American School is a large independent school, one of Asia's top college preparatory independent schools, offering an American-based education with a truly global perspective. We offer both AP and IB courses for our students, allowing our learners to personalize their courses to their learning goals. Our flourishing campus, located in a northern suburb of Taipei called Tianmu, houses all three of our divisions - Lower, Middle, and Upper School - so that our students can learn, grow, create, and dream in the same inspirational space. Our students are known for an unmistakable culture of excellence, a deep commitment to the creative arts, and a passion for all things STEAM.

差勁的學校與學生素質,早已失去教育者該有的心。昨日我搭高鐵,碰到一群穿著TAS上衣的人,看起來肯定有高中生年紀,從台中站上來一路大聲以流利的美式英語聊天,坐我後方的那位女生還不斷頂我椅背。一開始我還想說不小心動到難免,可是這整整一個小時她不停地頂。後來我受不了,站起來回瞪,後方&隔壁那兩位女學生皆是以抬著雙腳踩踏前方椅背的方式坐著。回瞪時她們停下來一下,我坐下後又繼續大聲聊天&踹椅背,往旁邊一看其他該校學生也是以這姿勢坐,這幾位學生的言行令我非常不悅,於是我去該校Fb粉專留言並Po這張照片。接著一個女的不知是學校的誰私訊我,指責我亂po照片,公私不分地偏袒學生,還推卸教育者的責任,說學生還在長大,時間到了自然會學到顧慮他人,好一群佛系學生的概念。早上起來後發現半夜刪我評論,官方作為完全姑息不正面回應。都多大了,數位學生如此偏差誇張的行為居然仍不知自重自愛,大夥穿著代表校方的TAS還如此德行,看來學校的教育方針非常有問題。

來補充一下以下提到的。這間所謂學校外面本來是可以停車的,10多年前馬英九當市長時就把所有停車格廢掉了。 學生的傲慢沒家教等等……這不意外,但x台灣人自己也有一半責任。多數台灣人對老外都極盡卑微之能事,老中跟老外如果吵架,路過的老中還會站在鬼佬那一邊呢! 另外,美國學校薪水應該不差吧?!可是為什麼有些老師在自己家兼家教??g開頭s結尾娶一個外省人的就把學生收到家裡教喔!學校不管嗎?

Class of 2005. I had a fun and educational time here. There were great teachers who loved teaching and supported my growth. Being an institution, there are serious flaws, though.

  • Kirvin Driscoll

Many happy memories at TAS! I went there between 1989 and 1991, my freshman and sophomore years of high school. The school, at this location, opened in the fall of 1989.

沒人管.沒政府.學校警衛好棒棒.擋車擋好擋滿.校內高貴人士出入優先.一路回堵到福林橋.沒人狂按喇叭繼續一直擋.被罵還好像很不爽.請問有關部門私人的警衛不是不能阻擋車道上的車流嗎?還是因人而異.真x媽的xxx.說真的沒比較高貴啦.對面的日僑學校就不會.同一條馬路兩樣情

  • Cat Wang

年紀看來已不小的HR主管, 面試時嘻鬧的態度極不尊重。 1)原來是TAS校友來的,原來連在學校工作的TAS校友都這種水準,不尊重面試者也不尊重自己的工作。 2)妳早已有想要的人選無妨,但若只是需要人來充面試紀錄就在招募廣告誠實告知。

下課放學時車子很多在外面等後接孩子的 還有管理員指揮只會阻擋民車和機車 不讓民車機車過?讓大巴士或是載小孩的家長車過?道路是你們美國學校的喔 造成交通混亂!堵塞的禍首!!!

  • 張志祥

一間會造成交通阻塞的爛學校,而且長年不改,理所當然的,學校更爛。沒有警察敢去督查開單,只好上報台北市政府,再沒改善,就看媒體報導這道最後防線是否有效。

  • Ni Ching

下課時間絕對不要經過這,不管是騎腳踏車還是開車,都要先讓他們的校車出來才能過,而且有時候一台遊覽車只做五六個人,真是浪費資源!!路邊也會停滿休旅車,

  • Aleksander

學生素質極差,自以為是,目中無人,把公共場合當自己家。不知道教育除了什麼問題,把美國人的傲慢發揮得淋漓盡致,卻毫無美國人的榮譽感。爛!爛學生。

  • 小Gu

"職員"處理事情只會說不是他的責任,踢皮球、直接掛電話的處理方式,只是學生遇到問題根本求助無門,欺善怕惡(有靠山才會聽你說話)!
