School is generally hated amongst most teens, myself included some days. So what is the ideal school system? The system that would make all students want to come to school? Well, I'm not sure what the ideal school system is but in my ideal school system there are 2 main things that should be changed from the present system.
      1. Smaller number of students in classes. Having fewer people in your class would mean that there will be less distractions from your work. Decreasing people will decrease noise and people to be distracted by.
      This would as well increase the worth of the teacher. Your teacher will be able to spend more time with you and help you to increase the effectiveness of your learning. Also, these smaller numbers would mean that more teachers would be hired, thus creating jobs for aspiring educators.
2. There should be a larger focus on self directed learning. Learning is important and you learn every second of everyday. But no kid wants to sit in a class listening to some teacher babble on about something they could not care less about. That's why I think that it's important for students to be able to choose what they want to do within the guidelines and curriculum of the course. 
     For example, if you're in history learning about World War 1 you can research certain things that interest you within the war, rather than being limited to a certain battle or section. 
      Most people assume that teens don't care about learning or school or anything but their friends. That may be true in some cases, but if this plan was put into action, I think that many teens would enjoy school and learning far more than they do now.
