The education system is a lot different now than it was in elementary, middle, and high school. It’s different mainly because college you have to pay for yourself, unless of course you get help from the government or get scholarships. In elementary, middle and high school you were able to go to school without paying for it unless you went to a private school. I use to enjoy going to school but once I graduated in 2010 and started college in the fall of 2010 I started to hate school. Once you’re paying for school on your own you have a way different perspective on the education systems. To me, is does not matter what county, city or state you’re in it is all the same.
I have many experiences that have not been the greatest with the education system and staff of the colleges I have been too. With having really bad test anxiety it makes things very difficult for me. And the statement that Mike Rose wrote in his book Lives on the Boundary, “I get in there, and everything seems okay. But as soon as we start writing, I freeze up. I’m a crummy writer, I know it. I know I’m going to make lots of mistakes and look stupid. I panic. And stop coming.” (Lives on the Boundary, Rose, Page 1) this passage explains just how I feel when I go in to take a test, not just writing, all subjects. Most teachers I have had felt it was an excuse when I say I have test anxiety, but if there more than three people in a room while I take a test I freak out and I rush my work and forget half the stuff I actually studied for. I’m a great student if teachers give me a chance. If they do not I feel there is no reason to even try.
The issues I have in college are issues that are able to have improvement. Most teachers need to understand each students needs and not come to conclusions about them. They also need to give each and every one of their students a chance from start to finish. If teachers actually
Ken Robinson’s talk is to provoke people’s thoughts about flaws in the education system. He uses information and opinions to imply problems with current system.

contemporary education system is constantly behind in terms of innovative methods of teaching. One exceedingly outdated method of teaching, is to treat everyone in the classroom as if they have the equivalent skill level and learn in the identical way. This causes students to fall behind the rest of the class since they are incapable of understanding the information being taught. Therefore, I am going to discuss the solution to this problem, which is a further individualized education system in schools…
Meritocratic system is a system that is based on an individual ability and or achievement. This has allowed me to question is the British education system meritocratic and if so, to what extent. In the terms of the history of the British education system, It seen to have a long, complicated history in which there has been loads of revolution in terms of change in order to make it better, efficient and more suitable for the future. In October of 1940, the president of the board of education Herwald…
The educational system is not universal. Schools around the world are taught different things. In the United States, children are brought to school to be taught to respect authority. Some may argue that children are prepared for industrial society instead. They think the children are taught values and components necessary to succeed in a rapidly changing world. This is not true. Children are taught what society thinks they need to know and that is of course, obedience to authority. Authority…

Best Solution to the Education System Problems Being a student, I have always wanted to get an A grade for the class. However, I have to study harder and harder. F cannot represent all grades to a student. Carl Singleton, the author of the article “What Our Education System Need More F’s” believes that more Fs can make the students focus on the homework rather than TV. However, I think his point is not really right. More Fs are not the best solutions to the education system problems. Fs may make…
