    I've been in both Swiss private boarding schools and public. The public schools are 100 times better. As a student, you are completely free to do what you please. If you want to skip class, go ahead. Want to go drinking on a Monday evening and come hungover the next day, you can. However surprisingly, students tend to be more responsible given these freedoms. As they know abusing them will likely mean flunking the school year. And unlike expensive boarding schools where they basically gift you the grades. Swiss public schools are competitive since the state doesn't want to waste money on students. In addition to the benefits I mentioned above the type of people, you will meet and the type of person you will become is also a very important factor. Generally in Private schools you hang around the same group of spoiled kids, most of your relationships are drama filled and superficial, often also materialistic. In Public schools, however, you come in contact with people from all areas of life, and it teaches you to be humble and grateful for what you have instead of worrying about others. All in all, if you have the choice: I strongly suggest picking a public school. It's cheaper, you will be less spoiled, amazing university opportunities (If you want to continue studying in Switzerland), and top-tier education.

  • @amberwatson7101

    Are the students there aware of how privileged they are or do they even think they are because their parents can pay this amount of money for this school compared to free public schools financed by the state? Would you say or do you think you experienced a 'better' school life compared to what you've heard of others?

    • @NatalieMatz
      @NatalieMatz  Před 3 lety +66

      I think that other students are not aware of that and they demand the teachers to basically study for them. I remember my French lessons, where others complained that some things were 'too hard' and I was in a bit of shock because in my previous schools if you said sth like that to a teacher, they would just respond that 'you didn't study enough'.
      It depends on the students, but I often heard them say the school was bad, and other schools were better blabla. Of course, there surely are better schools/environments cause it's all subjective but I think they don't know what they're saying.

Its mostly dominated by Russians and Asians so if you belong to these groups, this place is a heaven.

      @@jimenavivas9604 hi, I wouldn’t say theres any bullying related to your financial condition since everyone knows that you’re in the same school as them so you obviously have enough money to be considered rich, however you might end up feeling inferior because some kids get way more money than you. Having those feelings is fine as long as it doesn’t reflect in your personality. More often than not, you’ll find some very nice and polite people that do not consider money as a factor while making friends. Overall I would highly recommend you to go to switzerland because the overall environment is great, and it conditions you to act appropriately in different situations .
