Teaching methods is the key for countries to success. If the education has a solid base, the generation will grow up with the country. For example, I’m here in a foreign country to study, improve myself and adopt different and new thoughts to my country. This thing will not be only reflected on me but on my family too.
Because of the high qualifications I dreamed of for my kids, I chose a privet school in my country. In there, my son spent the kindergarten and the first grad crying each day. It was very difficult on me and him but I thought maybe the reason was that he is very attached to me, so it was hard on him not to see me during the day. Also, he was whining all the day because of the dozen homeworks he gets, too many memorizing he is supposed to do and heavy back bag he carries every day. One time, his teacher hit him on his back because he was writing on his desk, so it was a problem to go to school on the next day. This kind of behaviors can destruct the relation between the student and the teacher.
When we came here I was concerned about what my son is going to do, is he going to cry a lot? Also, different language would be huge obstacle for him. However, he surprised me with the way he adapted. He liked the school so much and kept saying that the school is beautiful and we play a lot. This is because of the different teaching method he receives here. He is receiving reasonable number of books and homeworks. School is not depending on memorization but practice. In addition, teachers are being very careful in the way they deal with kids. Also, giving children with other languages daily lessons to help them was really helpful. One funny thing my son mentioned is that he likes girls more than boys and says that they are very cute and not aggressive.
I think this is the right method to make your kids like the school and be a successful and productive person in the future and I hope I can change something back in my country to improve our teaching method.
