During my father's generation, the education system was very different. Back in those days, most schools were provided by the British. In those days, people had a better education than nowadays because teachers had different ways of teaching. Most of the students were taught by British native teachers. Therefore, they spoke better English and had high standards in English. Also, they began learning English in primary school. Furthermore, all of the subjects were taught in English. The schools' rules were strictly followed, and they had punishment for every little thing. In my generation, the educational system was far different from my father's. For example, all the subjects were taught in Burmese except for English. I myself and other students from my generation started to learn English in the fifth grade. In the fourth and eighth grades, the final exams are given by the state board of education, and in the tenth grade, the exam is a nation-wide exam. In each grade, we must pass every subject. Otherwise, we must repeat that particular grade. Therefore, it is really hard to graduate from high school. After tenth grade, we can enter college. In the old days, there was no limit in choosing any major or professional field that we wanted. Things are not easy in my generation. The students have fewer opportunities to learn.
