School does not prepare the students for the world of work

I totally agree with this statement.  What did you study in high school? What subjects did you have back
then? And What were you taught in those subjects? You will find yourself wondering about all the time you
spent on subjects that do not matter in real life.They do not prepare you for the world of work and so many
students and fresh graduates have trouble saving money and even paying their bills. Schools focus on
teaching theories and concepts and do not focus on teaching students how to react in practical situations.

At the beginning of student life, children are enrolled in different classes where they are expected to learn
and memorize concepts in science, history, math, etc. Maybe someone had the talent to be a pianist, maybe
someone had a passion for art, but these students are never taught to explore their talents It is fair to say
that students who have just graduated from high school have no set of skills. They do not know how to live in
the real world.  Not a single class in school teaches you how to save money, handle money, and earn money
through investment. You will see many students struggling with handling their finances even after scoring
well in their mathematical and finance courses. This is because the studies in schools are strictly theoretical,
and nothing in those school textbooks teaches them to be practical.

If your school is not focusing on contributing to your future, we advise you to take classes that help build
your skills and help you explore your talents.  You will see that you will grow as a person but be sure to take
classes that teach you to do practical work and give you some theoretical knowledge!
