 Education In Republic of Moldova

We know from the past that education is a very important part of life. Whoever is smarter
has an easier life. Education is one of the most important qualities of man.In our country we
currently have a pretty good education. Compulsory secondary education is present and we
have many experienced teachers.

We have two types of institutions in our country: state institutions and private institutions. If
we differentiate between students in a private school and a simple school, we notice few
differences because it is the same curriculum. Learning in a simple school you learn with
difficulties and you learn yourself to build your future while learning in a private school
you are used to everything being easy and encountering a difficulty you let yourself be
beaten very easily. One of the problems that teachers face is mobile phones because the
students in the lesson instead of listening to the lesson and understanding its topic sit on the
phones, on social networks and behave badly. It is good for students to follow the advice of
teachers. However, I have a good opinion about my studies in my country because at the
moment I am in college and I have gone through all our Moldovan stages of learning. One
of the hardest subjects is math, which very few students understand well. I believe that if
man wants to learn and have a beautiful future, everything will be accepted.

In conclusion, I would say that compared to other countries, we have a modern and easy
education.
