Why School is Sucks ?

A man by the name of Mark Twain once said I never let my schooling interfere with my education. It is said that a child educated only in school is an uneducated child.

What does that mean? It means the true education is not merely learned through a textbook and the way to prove that one understands something is not merely through it test, this is the old way the chalk and talk way the way of memorizing facts and dates then taking a test and then forgetting about them a week later. What good does that do, a man by the name of Howard Gardner came up with a theory of Multiple intelligences, he said that there are auditory Learners kinesthetic Learners people that learn through touch people that learn through stories.

See we all have different gifts and strengths and to create an educational system where only one type of learning is preferred is absurd, not only unfair but it’s sacrifices the god-given abilities of students and the good of the world, the best advice I could give a student is figure out how to learn, just because you fail a test doesn’t mean you’re slow just because you’re having a hard time understanding something doesn’t mean it’s impossible because there are no bad students only inflexible teachers. Yeah. I went there in the fourth grade my teacher Mrs Smith wanted to hold me back and she said I was slow and they are not going to like me saying this but when I was growing up my parents thought that I had mental disabilities. No, I just wasn’t understanding in the way that they were teaching a few years ago. I graduated a softwar engineer.

The same man who took us to the Moon Warner Von Braun field math class twice. See nobody is slow. But the secret is you must figure out how you learn, then learn everything you can about what you love and I promise life will become a lot easier.
