Post "American education" stories

>tfw I've learned more about countries and politics in a designated shitposting board on a Burmese sword fighting website than all 18 years of history class during the entirety my life

It's not just a meme

And probably all of my friends as well

education is shit everywhere
people just love the dumb american meme
>american memeucation

If only the glorified babysitters in your high school showed John Green videos in class

Are you upset?

this tbqh. im sure USA is probably among the worst of the first world in terms of education, but I highly doubt even the best education is much better. education always ends up being shit unless you go to a private school, teachers are always underfunded and have to teach classes of hundreds of kids.

>everywhere
Nah, I'm pretty sure it's good in at least one country. Probably Luxembourg or some other equally as easily forgotten first world country.

no im not. the english in particular have shitty education but they still meme on ye
switzerland has pretty good education i guess.

good point actually, but his main point still stands. UK's education is probably as shitty as USA's, or only slightly better/worse

I think Finland is the world leading country on education

id say scandis too but theyre filled with left wing propaganda
binland :DDDDD
if youre not finnish or swiss >american education is just memeing

Hey at least they they know the names of other countries they don't share a border with

Also check

Bump for story

The answer is __Eastern__ Germany.

>implying
europeans only know the important countries and their neighbours. irish people dont usually know where moldova, serbia or croatia are. same in the rest of europe i assume, especially in the big countries.

Why is there still such a divide between east and west Germany?

g*d damn what the fuck is happening in albania, they're always the lowest of the low

For me it's not a meme. History in my country is a fucking joke. World war 2 was one paragraph long. I kid you not senpai.

>t*rkey
>yurop

>Senior English teacher was a libertarian woman who taught both pro-gun literature to the class and the Vagina Monologues and kept traveling to Vietnam to hand out for whatever reason
>semester reading included The Alchemist, 1984, and Escape from Camp 14 (book about North Korea)
>special class time was taken out to watch V for Vendetta
>students had to roleplay as Edward Snowden

*to hang out

The true answer is superior intelligence of the eastern German noblemen. Apart from that dumb subhumans from the west will claim it is due to the high share of muslim immigrants and because teachers in eastern Germany got a superior education when socialism was still imposed on us.
Please pay special attention to Northrhine-Westphalia, the state in which the Cologne rapings happened.

to be fair tho there are probably more important things to learn about that relate to Malaysia than WWII. for reference, WWII is usually one chapter here, like 10 pages which is dumb as fuck. WWII should matter a lot more to USA than Malaysia

That is too much that im having a hard time in believing you

>pls no step

You haven't learned a thing about countries and politics on Sup Forums just memes people who read wikipedia articles about things they learned about from civ 5

>try to make conversation with an American girl
>we start talking about languages
>tell her I know Dutch
>'oh so that means you're from Russia right?'

Did your dick retract into your body at that moment?

even though it was in one of the most liberal areas of my state it was still weird

there was also a huge CP scandal where like 20 guys almost got charged with possession of it because someone's nudes got printed off on all the school printers

I was contemplating whether to lose faith in humanity for allowing America to be a world leader
It didn't help that she was fat too

The majority of Europeans know where most European countries are, quite a lot also know other around the world. The ones most people I've talked to have trouble knowing is Asian ones.

>she was fat too
No surprise, but why would you talk to a fat slag?

Sub saharian africa it's a mess too

I was desperate at the time. Don't judge me pls

this is pretty true, but in my experience american women are dumber than men. almost every girl i grew up with is dumb as fuck, like as dumb as the girl in your post. they wouldn't be able to point out a single country on a map of europe. i know a lot of dumb guys too, but i would say 75% of them could point out a country in europe, while only 10% of the women i know could

also LMAO forgot that she also once projected the homepage for the Daily Mail on the wall and suggested for us to read it as it was a "reliable and accessible source"

All first world schools are just liberal indoctrination camps

I used to be insecure about my "American education" but then I realized that people, especially European autists, like to feel smug about the most trivial things. Geography and history fall under that category unless your profession makes specific use of them.

Yeah I can't find Gabon or Honduras on a map.
Nor can I name the Hapsburg lineage.

So what?

That's not what I was talking about, it seems like people here can't even point out countries like Germany or SA on a map

Because uniting what essentially is two countries takes a long time, both economically and culturally.
The wall only fell 26 years ago after all.

Since you american retards think that education is shit everywhere, let me give out an example from my shitty country.
We have 2 history classes which spans from 6th grade all the way to 11th grade. Local history, and world(ancient) history.
In local history we have to memorize every single fucking noble, king, khanate, prince, general, city's, land routes, water routes, trade routes, every single battle, hero and shit.
In the first 2 years of world history we learn all of the civilisations in detail from dawn of the humanity 1.5m years ago in Africa to the collapse of the Roman empire. After that 2 years, we start to learn world history. Such as every single country ever formed, their landscape, battles, king, politics, infrastructure, factions and so on. We have to fucking laws, constitution and every single president US, China, Russia, France, England and Germany and much more for fuck sake. And all of this is the general knowledge taught in normal, government school...
And after all this I came to Sup Forums and see 'muricans shit talking.

Everything is a meme on this board

>be in high school
>English teacher quits
>no good applicants apply
>out of desperation they hire some American woman
>prefaced texts about evolution stating that it was obviously false
>talked a lot about guns and why they should be allowed
>was barely qualified when it came to judging grammar and grading
>was considered crazy by everyone
ultimately she was fired after the year
not even memeing this legitimately happened

>dawn of the humanity 1.5m years ago

Who cares?

Geography is the last refuge of the snarky Redditor.
