[quote=Anonymous]This is why I went to private. Figured it will be more difficult to hide behind classmates and avoid participation in a smaller size class. It takes dc every year some time to warm up and start participating and it helps that teachers have more opportunity to call on them, more opportunists to make presentations and to speak in front of class. I figured if they get used to it from childhood it would be easier when they grow up - form a habit of speaking up. I was quiet too in a class of about 35 students and I could count on my fingers the number of times I raised my hand to answer over my 12 year of schooling. I coasted through school, had great grades, but it is now when I started working that I had to break the habit of coasting through meetings same way I coasted through school.[/quote]
