Una española que vive en Estados Unidos, sin palabras al ver el nivel educativo en los colegios de este país: «Me quedé flipando»
Martina ha contado las cosas que son comunes en el país y que en comparación con el nuestro pueden resultar extrañas
Cross-Cultural School Days: A Spanish Student's Perspective on American Education Life in a new country can be full of surprises, and for Martina, a young woman who relocated from Seville, Spain, to Florida, the differences between the two countries' educational systems were particularly striking. In a recent video, Martina details the unexpected aspects of attending high school in the US, highlighting the casual dress code and the surprising choice of backpacks among her peers. "I was shocked to see so many high school students carrying backpacks with cartoon characters," she says, "It's something I never saw in Spain." Further differences were found in the school lunch program. Martina describes a menu that consists mainly of hamburgers, a stark contrast to the more varied options available in Spanish schools. The frequent early-release days, which Martina says are common in Florida, were also a source of fascination. "It's very different from what I'm used to," she adds. Martina's video offers a fresh, personal perspective on the cultural nuances of education, highlighting the unexpected contrasts between two seemingly similar systems. Her experience underscores the importance of understanding and appreciating the unique aspects of different educational cultures.
