I think the biggest problem with this school is the teachers. While there are some very good teachers at this school, Ive met far too many bad ones. Many of the teachers do not personalize the the work and the learning experience. To add on to this, the school and the work is not challenging. I found that especially in math, i never felt interested because none of the work made me think.
