Each learns differently but the education system stifles those students who are creative and non linear.
I am currently researching the life of Thomas Chatterton, the boy genius who wrote intelligent and beautiful poems as a child. Stifled by dull environments he struck out on his own as a writer. Chatterton committed suicide at seventeen.
How many people have gotten into trouble because the systems that stifle creativity and originality. Unfortunately I see rigid conformity throwing a cloud on society. Creative people will always be creative. They will find an outlet to express themselves. Some of the most creative people who ever lived never went to college. Some may not have graduated high school. creative people will continue to shine in spite of the odds against them. I'm thankful for them because they have brought out the best in me.
