"There are many ideas that can be applied, although the Finnish system is very far from our reality, it seems to me that we can implement the different ways that students have to learn and apply it in our classrooms and not have a single teaching-learning method. Giving teachers more freedom to implement their classes without the pressure of being constantly assessed and professional development is something we need to advance."See other reviews
