[quote=Anonymous]I'm overall happy with the majority of the teachers, who are responsible, caring and professional. I'm quite bothered by changing the curriculum every few years, esp. when some curriculum is praised a lot (e.g., ELC, HIGH) but they still got replaced by worse ones... I'm not happy about the math education overall in this country. There is a big jump from Alg 2 to AP Calc that school doesn't prepare kids well to jump over. And now the new IM curriculum even waters down the Alg 2, so kids without supplementing ahead of time will have a higher chance to fail at AP Calc level. The K-12 STEM education is really rudimentary at U.S. compared to many other developed or developing countries (e.g., Germany, Russia, China, Korea, etc.). I immigrated from one of these countries, and in my field and many other STEM fields that I can observe, the majority of top-tier contributors come from first-generation immigrants. [/quote]
