[quote=Anonymous]+1. I'm a Chinese immigrant who perused the greatschools.com comments months ago, helping convince me not to sign my kid up. Too many of them evoked memories of my elite exam factory middle school back home. How ironic that, at a time when Chinese provincial governments are taking a hard look at how to move beyond rote learning and memorization in schools, and the newly wealthy seek out "American style" privates emphasizing experiential learning, Basis enters the picture locally. Maybe you need to be East Asian to fully appreciate the fact that hard work can't replace inspiration and joy of learning in predicting future success. If I want to send my kid to a cram school with subpar facilities, no shortage in Asia. [/quote]
