A Newcomer's Feeling

I came from China. I worked as a high school teacher for a few years in China. I think the Chinese education is different from the Canadian education. For example, in China people think a good student has to get high marks. Parents hope their child go to university, then get a good job. In Canada, social skills are very important. Maybe you don't need diploma or degree of unversity, you also can get a good job. I think Chinese education is book smart and Canadian education is street smart. In real life street smart is more important.
