What Should Be Done To Improve The Education System

Three of the best ways to improve education are making a more individualized learning plan, hiring more professional and knowledgeable teachers and making smaller class sizes.

First, by making a more individualized learning plan, the students who are either visual, hands-on or auditory learners would have a chance to be placed in a class where the teacher teaches in the best way for students to thrive. No student is the same and students should not be ashamed or bypassed because of their style of learning. For instance, if Sally is having trouble learning her ABC's because the teacher is using index cards and she would do better learning her ABC's by singing them, Sally would be behind all the other kids. Also, the result of placing students into a more individualized learning plan, they will learn to have better study habits. Students will know exactly how they could focus on studying because they will know which category of learning they fit into.

The second way to improve education is by distinguishing professional and knowledgeable teachers. There are some teachers who are biased and make unfair decisions. Teachers who choose certain children to go up to the class to present or pick on certain children and treat them like "degenerates" are unprofessional. This hinders students from learning because they get discouraged and won't try because they feel like they are not "good enough" when teachers are supposed to help children gain confidence in their academic abilities. Teachers who are not knowledgeable can also hinder student learning. If a chemistry teacher goes off topic and starts talking about everything other then chemistry, and they make constant mistakes that even get corrected by students, is a huge problem. For the children who don't understand chemistry to begin with, they will get even more confused with a teacher who is not knowledgeable.

The final way to improve education is to make smaller class sizes. Students would be able to focus more because they know that they can get called on by the teacher at any moment, so they need to push themselves to stay engaged with what is being taught. Also, the teacher will be able to notice whether or not students are paying attention. Smaller class sizes will also allow students to be more comfortable to ask questions. Because the class size is smaller, there will be less judgement. In most cases, smaller classes have students who want to learn and won't judge other students for asking questions when they need help. Although there are plenty more ways to improve education, education can simply be changed by making a more individualized learning plan, hiring more professional and knowledgeable teachers, and making smaller class sizes.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
