Nepal-05: Underdeveloped Society

Since I started teaching at school, I was thinking how to improve its circumstance. I wanted to make this school as good as the private schools nearby, and I thought it wasn't too difficult. Government school students are very weak at English, but those private school students didn't speak English either even though they were studying in English-medium education system. Needless to say, there are a lot of good private schools in urban areas like Kathmandu or Pokhara, yet private schools outside the cities didn't seem really different from government schools in the quality of education.
