Why Our Current Education System Is Failing

vannehlu:

“We’re tired of being told we’re not good enough. We’re tired of doing mindless work that only adds stress to our lives. We’re tired of feeling unworthy just because we fail to meet the expectations of the A+ poster child.”

I always loved school. I obsessed over good grades, but more often than not, they came easily to me. The struggle was always everything else. School was always the one place where I wasn’t a failure. Where no one ever told me I wasn’t good enough.
