Boring class

I am one of Thai students, so I can see many problems of Thai education system. At first, I heard many people said Thai education system received from USA, UK. But USA and UK is developed countries. Thailand is not. We received by not adapt. Then many problems are following. Second, Developed countries' education system teach students to think not to memory! In contrast, Thai education system teaches the student to memory not to think. It's up-side-down! So we can see many Thai students can only use formulae, but they can't explain why and how does it work. I had ever ask my friend if I have one of stick-metal then I put negative electric charge at both of the ends. So the positive charges will run to the ends and how about negative charges at the middle? Can it stay with each other? My friend answered me, perhaps there is a tiny gap between two-group of negative charges! OMG! This friend is top 3 physics score of my room! He can't explain me. He can calculate quizzes perfectly, but he failed when he found theory questions. This is one of the worse of Thai education system. They teach us to memory not why.
Old teacher, most old teach style

At last, Teacher is too old. I didn't mean every old teachers are bad. Let's discuss about teacher. Old teachers have their aspect. They think who don't respect them, they are not good students. I am one. I select who should get respect from me. Some teacher I see him as only man — the man who came to the room and tell his knowledge to us. Not teacher. Why? Because teachers are who have mature, respectability, and sanctity, not only have knowledge. I had ever quarrel with many teachers, because he's crazy, irrational, petulant. I hate every teacher who irrational. And my most hate teacher is Y. (I don't want to say his name). He is a math teacher. I think math teacher should have reasons, but he isn't. Many old teacher usually hate like-to-ask students. In this case Y. is too! I had ever asked him why 0.999... = 1. He can't answer me clearly. Then he always dislikes me (I think the reason why he dislikes me is he ashamed because he can't answer me.). Ahh! That's one important problem too. Teachers dislike like-to-ask students. And they can't to answer. So student don't like to ask him and try to memory instead. In conclusion, there is many Thai education problems base from many reasons. For example: Thai received education system from USA, UK by not adapt., Teachers teach us to memory not teach us why., Teachers are too old., And some teachers don't like like-to-ask students and they can't/don't like to answer too! These are only examples of Thai education system problems that I found. In really there are more than these. I hope you agree with me. If not or you can see more problem than me please leave comments!
