I wanna listen to him narrating his memoirs. It's truly like music. The fact that I wasn't told to read anything about poetry and novels after primary school was a shame of HK education and HK educators. I don't know why one would like reading Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn in the over-abridged versions. And Dicken's Christmas Carol as well as Shelly's Frankenstein just aren't enough to do any good too. Those are Children's story and we were reading that in Form 3, I wonder??!! AND EVEN WORSE, we read exactly "NOTHING" after that I guess??!!
"You must be joking!! How's that possible??!! Are the educators uneducated themselves??!!" An outsider would yell.
I searched for some of his interviews today. People with common sense think alike. I just don't know why if a system doesn't work, and yet everyone is still following the "tradition". Examination = evil. It takes away true interests from students, and turn them to worries that they shouldn't probably have at such a young age. Those are confidence-shatterer!! The fact that you climbs up the "education ladder" in this system means nothing. It meant you are as well-trained as a dog. Hand hand, boy. Give me your hand. Just like that. You're a good boy.
Such a system will never be able to help those willing learners, if there are still any these days. Education is not like this. Something's got to be done, as soon as possible. I think it's common sense.
Go see how the world did it!!
