Back in the 90s, when I was in school, education was like a uniform everyone had to wear—the same textbooks, the same blackboard, and the same hurried lessons for all. If you fell behind, your only lifeline was to awkwardly raise your hand in the middle of class or spend hours in the library after school, rifling through reference books.
