Recommended: The American system of Education

Have you ever thought why there are so many students who come to America for studying and living every year? Because they think America system of education that has been created for students in Kindergarten through University is the best educational system in the world, and give them more chances to get better lives. In my opinion, I so agree with their thinking and I had a dream to study here for a long time ago although I was raised and educated in Vietnam for eleven years before I stepped in America. I had enrolled in elementary, middle, and high school in Vietnam. I have to say that was a pretty tough time for me but it was enjoyable.

    We live in a society where we are surrounded by people telling us that school/education and being educated is the only way to succeed. However, the school system is not up to the standards we want it to uphold. There are three issues we discuss the most which are the government, the student, and the teacher.

In “I Just Wanna Be Average”, an essay written by Mike Rose, we hear a student 's experience of being in a vocational class in the lower level class in the educational system when he was supposed to be in the higher class.

They sit there - bored - and do not think that the teachers care, making the

All students should be given equal opportunity and tools to become a successful member of society.

    Where I am from, coming to America is an unachievable dream for most people; however, that dream became attainable to me one summer.
