hello beautiful humans!! how could school be different? if you want to learn a language, you can use the code JADEMAY to get up to 40% off the BEST Lingoda Flex classes before 26th Mayย try.lingoda.com/Lingoda_JadeMay go go go โœจ [ad]

We can learn something from EVERY school, whether it be from discussing engagement tactics with a seasoned teacher, to understanding how a culture of belonging is built, but here are 5 schools around the world that have been on my radar recently for organising school outcomes differently. I'm always inspired by representation of experimentation! ๐Ÿ’ก

Timestamps:
00:00 Why is it useful to look at alternative schools?
00:41 Alpha Schools in the US (only 2 hours of academics a day, taught by AI??)
5:47 High Tech Academy in Kazakhstan (project-based learning with an academically rigorous, non-examined baccalaureate)
9:15 Agora in the Netherlands (no exams, no curriculum!?)
10:42 Camphill in Scotland (walforf/steiner, education through hands, strong sense of belonging!)
12:24 Michaela in London (strictest school in the world????)
13:40 Why I've become more open-minded about the existence of private schools (the opportunity to innovate)

This video is kindly sponsored by Lingoda, the BEST language school I've ever tried. They helped me learn German, Spanish and now I'm learning French. I highly recommend if you're interested in learning a language. It's the only tool I'd recommend to become conversational quickly.
