The best thing about education in the UK is the fact that good quality education is free, and available to all.

 

The worst thing about education is the UK the fact that teenagers have to specialise too early. At the age of 16 you have to drop the majority of your school subjects, and concentrate on only 3 or 4. Students narrow down their curriculum to perhaps 3 science subjects or 3 arts subjects. This means, for example, that most students stop studying essential subjects - such as maths - at the age of only 16.

I think that Russian education system has a lot af advantages except the Universities with high-level corruption. Since 1990 our scientists have migrated from Russia to USA, France, Cermany and so forth. Nowadays I have a lot of friends who moved another country to get phd degree and stay there. Maybe our education is very fundamental, but so we can broaden our mind.

Education of Japan is awful in some points. First of all, Japanese education system focuses on craning much knowledge into students' heads, so children tend to be knowledgable. Also, teachers pay attention to how much each student understand what they taught, because compulsory schools don't allow students stay in the same class for another year.
On the other hand, many Japanese students are not proactive to giving their opinions in front of classmates and not good at applying their knowledge to their lives. I think this is because education of Japan is genrally lecture style in which students are to just be a good listeners.

Chinese style education is quite terrible and nasty for most consicous parents and that is why so many parents would rather spend much of time or money sending their children to overseas or international school for a better, sensible learning environment. There is nothing left but scores, grades, rote learning and work as mechanical as an android. They are not trained to have their own thinking and most of the students do not have their critical thinking.

 

In terms of language learning, English teachers here are not really understanding how to conduct their children to speak or listen in English thinking, grade and examinations dominate all regions of learning. It is not only funny but also tragedic .

Education in our country is awful. Most of the students are taught to be robots for examination, getting high grades and entering good university.

Most of the elementary and middle school teachers are not good enough for teaching position because of the above reasons, and so they always strangle students's imagination and creativity.

Also, it is a great berden for most of families to support a student joining a university.
