Aaahhh yes, you’re one of those people that just knew English grammar right at birth. I envy you! I guess that things like history, math, geography, economics, computers, it all was just already in your head and you didn’t need to lean anything. Wowowow
I’m not saying that, I’m saying most of that time was wasted. I got very little for the 20’000 hours and most of my youth. In fact the overwhelming majority of what I kmow I got from the internet after class.
I don’t know what to tell you, it sounds to me that that statement says more about your and or your specific school than in general.
Yeah, the teaching could have been better, everything can be better, that doesn’t mean that everything is useless. You are talking to me by writing, you learned grammar yet you claim you got almost nothing. It’s weird
Well I’m not saying everything is useless nor expressing an opinion about the sum of all students’ experience, only my observation of the factory-like mass reproduction of teaching. It’s one size fits all nature, it’s lack of concerm for the subjective experience of students, it’s time-filling dilution of knowledge, its inability to help anyone outside of normal but its obligation to drag them over the finish line anyway, its belief that people in front are somehow gifted and can wait for the rest to catch up or be put in gifted or delayed groups instead (without regards for the social consequences). Its narrow range of interests, its flattening incuriosity, its concern over production of employee rather than citizens. Its unending wasting of my youth back when minutes felt like hours. Its reality falling so far short of its promises.
I’m not saying no to education. I’m saying respect my time and listen to me as a student instead of treating me like a product on a conveyor belt. Give back agency instead of 13 years of railroading.

I’m sorry if your education sucked, I guess not everyone can win, but don’t throw out the baby with the bathwater
