Oh my god!!! That's what I said in first day of school in the U.S.
American schools were great heaven to me.
I didn't have to worry about get spank from teacher because of grades.
I didn't have to go to school in the dark and got home in the dark.
And I didn't have to wear the uniform, also do not have to worry about all the complicated dress code.
In America I can study on my level and take advantage on the next level.
In Korea there like 30 to 35 students in one classroom and study all together, you can't change the schedule even course is too hard or too easy for the student. It may changed by today, but when I'm in school in Korea it was like that. Every public and private school, count the grades from the test score. There is four big test in middle and high school in every year.
It takes four to five days to take all the subject, but students can get off the school early on test days.
If you ruin one of those test, students can not get a good grade for their final.
Because of all those tests, lots of students having tutoring and it's really expensive, some cost about $2,000, but mostly cost about $2~300 per month.
But in America, students have lots of chances to pull up their grades.
Because teachers count the grades for every assignments that they gave to students.
And the most important thing is teachers never spank the student in U.S.
Even college is different. If I'm in Korea and try to enroll the college it's really hard. Every college requires SAT score and seniors study for the SAT in whole high school year. Because teachers pushing them so hard and their goal is get a highest score on SAT.
After all those work as soon as you got into the college then it's nothing cause it's really easy to graduate.
Today, I've heard it has been changed a lot, but I still think they're harsh about push them to study.
I'm not saying you don't have to study, but what I'm saying is, it's up to them, it's their responsibility.
