<p>konto,</p>
<p>First off I really do appreciate you looking into, and contributing your thoughts to this thread. You understand where I’m coming from, which is what I needed. </p>
<p>I must admit, I did watch that video… well listened to it anyways while I went about and honestly, I feel that what he says about lack-luster teachers is true. That they don’t give enough room for students to be creative, that the teachers force the importance of SAT’s and standardized tests too far instead of letting students construct subjects they are drawn towards. School’s focus more on the structure of a linear education, conducted monotonously, leaving little room for students to discover who they really are. Not to mention he has some ridiculous metaphors.</p>
<p>I’m assuming what it comes down to though is how far the teacher will take for granted the typical lesson plans. If they were open enough and willing to make the classroom a more creative environment, I’m sure it wouldn’t be all too difficult. It comes down to how willing and serious they are.</p>

<p>Absolutely hilarious, and so true. Good luck to the both of us on this one, ha. </p>
<p>I’ve been hearing advice from several other friends also and I’m beginning to lean more towards English but my decision isn’t definite and I still need to make the decision whether to transfer to an entire new school, or go back to the original school i attended first semester…</p>
