“The richness of the autodidacts in Form Four was a favorite — being able to learn more deeply about some aspect of each unit of study through making a movie, performing a play, etc., fostered my imagination and my love for learning. Through the curriculum and teaching, we were able to remember what we learned—going deep in study instead of memorizing facts for a test that might quickly fade.”
