The United States and Venezuela are two different countries with different cultures and values, therefore the education is different. As I see it, the books, theories and the knowledge are all the same no matter where you are. What makes the difference is how the teacher is going to transmit all that to the student and what approach the teacher is going to use so the student can apply it in the future. At Daemen as a student we have the chance to create a good relationship with the teachers, which is priceless when we are in college.
