In every corner of the world, we can see different education patterns, but everyone is growing almost the same way with the change in the global situation. I come from a South Asian country with a totally different education system where competition is the priority due to growing population. When I came to Canada initially, it was very difficult for me to understand how my child would grow in his academic career. But gradually I came to know that self-learning and growth should be a priority. In Canadian education system we use more technology in education. My son has started learning Scratch at school and then it interested him a lot so with self-learning through various online platforms, he has been learning advanced coding. I would say every child should be given opportunities to prove their skills rather than being forced to serve their parents’ demands.
