Hi Sihui, thanks for sharing your educational experience in Finland. I especially liked how sensitive the instructor and the other students were with regard to your needs. I feel like, that made you feel validated in the class, and taught a good lesson of altruism for the other students. Whenever I contemplate on my experience regarding my educational career, I always remember the memories that are similar to yours: The moments I realized my thoughts, feelings, experience matter for the instructor and/or the other students, and how these moments of realization boosted my mood, ideals and performance.. As you mentioned, may be the tradition of “recognition” and “respect” for the students’ needs is the very basis of why the drop-out rate is so low in Finland, the grass is green when you water it.
