EDUCATION in the DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

An issue spoke of from a teacher from the Dominican Republic is the fact that education is not as popular as in the United States. "Education is not a big of a deal there" she stated. continuing on to say "The students need to work harder over in the US, teachers require the students to do more work while teachers in DR are really strict; there is no opportunity for a second chance if you miss any work.". "The US educational system is valued as a tool to success."
