Chicago Teaching style: 3x4=11 is ok

[Jim B]

Something tells me the South Koreans don't use this style of teaching.

Children who never learn how to fail, will fail when they are adults.

This is how Chicago makes money from NW/Cornflakes, UofChi.
Since their own kids in Chicago are so stupid that out of state students are getting into these schools listed above.

I think South Korean education system teaches normal way. (like how we learned how to do basic asthmatics)

I think ROK's k-12 is ranked top 3 in the world.

However, their teachings are very generic/fixed. K-12 materials are ONLY about semester to 3/4 quarters ahead of average US schools, but the kids (or shall I say their parents) are extremely competitive relative to kids' class/school ranking.
