I will never send my 9-year-old son abroad for education, because China has the best elementary education. Chinese children are getting solid science knowledge and other skills in our schools. I have read all of my son's textbooks. They are very well organized and very interesting. Schools in Western countries advocate that children should learn freely or through play, but it turns out that their children don't learn much. Chinese educators should have confidence. But so me times, the pressure of taking exams and doing homework is a little too much for Chinese children. This is what we are going to change.
