Topic > Why Education Matters - 2528

Many students around the world today mainly focus on one thing while in school; Career and income, but how to get them? How do you get the career you want and the income you want? The answer is education: several countries are known for their exceptional academic performance and the pressure associated with their education. Among these countries are China, India and Japan. These three countries have a lot in common; exceptionally bright students and a very rigorous education system that inundates students with parental pressure to perform exceptionally well in school. Anita Desai, author of Studies in the Park, shows us how important education is in India. Studies in the Park is about a young man named Suno. Suno is ready to apply for college, but before entering he must pass the college entrance exams. Suno is pressured by his parents to study hard and pass the entrance exams. His parents always remind Suno that they expect good results from him and that he should simply study. Suno starts to get fed up with all the chatter and his noisy house, so he tries to find a new place to go to study; The Park. At the park he meets other students just like him; tired of all the noise at home and fed up with their parents nagging them to study. Anita Desai's Studies in the Park undoubtedly connects with the importance of education around the world, the pressure placed on students for education and the pressure for incentives offered for education globally. Many students face the same problem every day: education. Desai highlighted the pressure Indian students face and how expectations increase every year. Desai's story may have been a replica of his young life because it focused on his belief in education and the freedom to choose for his future career. First, students living in highly populated countries understand the importance of education much more. compared to students who live in towns with extra services and many neighborhoods. In Desai's Studies in the Park, the main character Suno was always told by his parents that the education Suno's parents had was thought to be very similar to Obama's thoughts.
