The article‚ “The Early Education Racket”‚ describes an early stage in the parental struggle to provide a proper education for children and one that I hadn’t anticipated to be as daunting of a task. Perhaps it is the difference in culture‚ but treating preschool as though it was the first step in college admission seems wholly ridiculous to me.

“Banking Concept of Education” by Paulo Freire underlines the theme of miscommunication between students and the teacher. A lot of the passage is biased by the author‚ pointing fingers at both the student and teacher. The passage repetitively emphasizes that though teachers spout out important information‚ rather than learning the material‚ students purely memorize and then forget it instead.
