Education in Estonia

  Nowdays education is one of the most important things in our life. You need it to have a success in future.
Do you want to be a doctor or a teacher, pilot or writer, you have to study.
   In our country we have subject-centered curriculum. It means that we study all subjects and when we will be grown-up we can choose the best specialization.
   But really I have observed that the teacher's role is no longer simply to feed information to students. Facts are available in libraries, on CD ROMs and in the Internet. What sudents need are skills to find this information. In our school we have many lessons where the teachers are helpers, not the masters. It teachs us to understand that our future, which depends on our education, is only in our hands.
   If we had student-centered curriculum, we would know only that subjects, that we chose. In one way it is rather good, because we listen only that lessens, which we will need in our future job and do not spend time on unnecessary ones. But if in the future I will need the others?
   So, I think, that Estonia has the right way of education.
