From my experience, the students who are truly gifted only needs a good environment they can study in (without worrying about money/work/bullying/parental abuse) but they definitely do not need 'cram schools'. The talented ones often have enough motivation to study what they like, and they can do self-study well with just light attention/mentoring from teachers.
People who are blindly praising Asian-style cram education really haven't actually experienced one in their youth at all; it is a fucking disaster at raising actual talent, and it robs you so much of your adolescence.

There are many people who do not fit this category, but could still benefit immensely from good teaching. I know, because I was one of them.
- cyber_kinetist 5y agoYeah, I agree. But not something that involves cramming for test scores, which is my main point.
