The Education System in Finland

http://fillingmymap.com/2015/04/15/11-ways-finlands-education-system-shows-us-that-less-is-more/

Here's an excellent article about an American teacher's experience in Finland.  So many things are different about Finnish education.  For example, primary teachers must have a Master's and write a Master's thesis.  This gives people a lot of confidence and trust in teacher.

Furthermore, they have a shorter school day, no standardized tests hanging over their heads, and less structure.  The big pay-off is a well educated country.
