Russian reality #2 : Education

Hello guys!

Today I will touch upon an education subject in Russia. Many people from the different countries consider education in Russia rather good. But actually education in Russia one of the worst.

As usual sorry for my English skills.

School education

I studied at one of the best schools of Moscow from which I graduated on a silver medal. The most interesting that in schools I did not gain almost any knowledge. In initial classes to teachers it was absolute to spit on pupils. Gave a task according to the textbook and left to have tea. 

90% of all knowledge I received at home, being engaged with my parents. The school did not teach me to anything at all. 

It should be noted that Russia the huge country which contains a huge number of the cities. But it is possible to get rather good education only in 3-5 cities, such as Moscow, St. Petersburg, Tyumen, Kazan. Other cities on suburbs of the country in general are deprived of any educational institutions.

Education in college

Now I study in one of the best IT colleges in Moscow at the 4th course. Teachers of the main objects, such as mathematics, physics were quite qualified. But the teachers teaching my profile objects such as "information security" and "automated systems" know nothing at all. 

Teachers are interested only in receiving salary, but not in training of students.

For example in my IT college there are only 2 computers at all. And it is necessary to come to lessons with the notebooks, otherwise you can be expelled from a lesson and give an unsatisfactory mark. Even examinations for which passing computers are necessary take place in other educational institution in which there are necessary resources.

But Director of our college goes on rest to France and other European countries while in our college there are 2 computers.

Attitude towards pupils

Practically at all schools of pupils do not consider for people. To pupils treat as animals. Teachers for the fact that they did not answer a question can hit them. Aggression from teachers is shown very often.

I have a huge number of acquaintances who studied at different schools and educational institutions. At most schools violate the rights of pupils. Teachers shout at absolutely small children at whom the mentality from such relation can break.

Certainly there are also good teachers who perfectly know the subject and treat the pupils kindly. I still communicate with the teacher of Russian from school. But such teachers are not enough. Generally it is greedy and angry people who look to break on the defenseless pupil.

Prices of education

I study on a free basis because I passed examinations for quite high point. The budget places in higher educational institutions are not enough. Up to 30 places on one specialty. People who did not get on the budget basis are forced to pay big money for education.

But Russians have no such money because Russia, is the country in which people get paid pathetic peanuts for work. 

We will talk about work in the following article of my blog. If you discordant with something, then write your opinion in comments, I will be very glad to communicate to you.
