Opis

The chasm of difference between the British and Japanese education systems sparked my interest in the early days of degree: I wanted to explore if one could learn lessons from the other. I wondered whether the militaristic style of Japanese Education, churning out competent workers year on year, benefits the individual as much as the State. Are they collective individuals perhaps? As an undergraduate thesis, I could only scrape the surface of a fascinating topic; nevertheless I concluded that Britain could in fact be educated by a system it modelled itself.

O autorze

Graduated from Cardiff University with a BA in Japanese with Spanish in 2003. I went on to live in Akita, Northern Japan and then moved back to UK working as an interpreter for a Manga company in London. The travel industry beckoned and I spent 5 happy years jetting off to far-flung destinations. I now work in the Videogames Industry.
