0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:01.880
<v Speaker 1>An eighth grade student in New York City, has written

0:00:01.880 --> 0:00:04.000
<v Speaker 1>a op ed in The New York Times and I

0:00:04.080 --> 0:00:08.120
<v Speaker 1>cannot believe they ran. Thirteen year old very Neat Mints

0:00:08.240 --> 0:00:11.440
<v Speaker 1>says that she's learning more with distance learning like at home,

0:00:11.920 --> 0:00:14.640
<v Speaker 1>than she did when her school was open. Now. She

0:00:14.720 --> 0:00:17.480
<v Speaker 1>says that before the coronavirus lockdown, she had to put

0:00:17.560 --> 0:00:21.280
<v Speaker 1>up with other students talking out of turn every day. Uh,

0:00:21.320 --> 0:00:26.400
<v Speaker 1>they destroyed classroom materials, openly disrespected to teachers. They blurted

0:00:26.400 --> 0:00:30.160
<v Speaker 1>out answers during tests. She says that other students regularly

0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:32.960
<v Speaker 1>pushed and kicked and hit each other, and that was

0:00:33.040 --> 0:00:35.680
<v Speaker 1>life in her middle school every single day. Now she

0:00:35.680 --> 0:00:39.360
<v Speaker 1>wrote about the problems was so called collaborative learning, which

0:00:39.840 --> 0:00:42.839
<v Speaker 1>she says accounts for eighty percent of classroom work in

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:46.839
<v Speaker 1>her school. It's done in groups. Dedicated students have to

0:00:46.880 --> 0:00:50.839
<v Speaker 1>try to make the unmotivated kids finish assignments and behave

0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:54.440
<v Speaker 1>But distance learning has allowed ms Mints to take control

0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:57.280
<v Speaker 1>of her own studies. She can now focus on her

0:00:57.360 --> 0:01:00.360
<v Speaker 1>work and is not being held back by the loosers.

0:01:01.120 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Miss Mints, I want to thank you. You have single

0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:06.560
<v Speaker 1>handedly explained why so many parents in New York and

0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:10.039
<v Speaker 1>in other Blue cities want school choice. They want to

0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:12.360
<v Speaker 1>say in where they send their kids to school, so

0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:14.880
<v Speaker 1>they won't have to put up with what You've been

0:01:14.920 --> 0:01:18.560
<v Speaker 1>forced to put up with every day until the coronavirus

0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:20.959
<v Speaker 1>saved you. How about that
