world. Her first job was at a secondary school in
Turkey where she 3 a class of thirty-three
eleven-year-old children for twenty-five hours a
week. It was an English-medium school: the
teachers taught all the subjects 4 English so
first-year students needed 5 it quickly. They
didn’t know any English and my aunt didn’t speak
Turkish 6 it wasn’t easy. Aunt Jane always
remembers 7 home thirty-three homework
books to mark every night. But she had a wonderful

Summerhill is a small boarding school in the east of
England. It has educated students from all over the
world since 1923. The founder of Summerhill, A. S.
Neill, believed in democratic or ‘free’ education. By
this, he meant that children should have the freedom
to make decisions for themselves. Summerhill
students Takeshi and Margit agree.
Takeshi: ‘I’m sixteen and I’m from Japan. I’ve been
at Summerhill since I was nine. It’s so
different from Japanese schools, where
school rules are very strict. Here students and
teachers have meetings every week, and we
talk about rules that we agree or don’t agree
with. Every student of whatever age can say
what he or she thinks, and then vote to decide
what to do. It’s fantastic.’
Margit: ‘I’m twelve and I’m from Germany. I’ve
been here for five years and I know that some
people think we never go to lessons, but it
isn’t true. We study all the ‘normal’ school
subjects from 9 o’clock to 3 o’clock every
day. We don’t have to go to classes if we
don’t want to, but most students go because
they like learning new things. I love science
and languages, and I never miss a physics or
Chinese lesson.’ Nowadays education seems to be about doing more
tests so many people are looking for more
motivating ways of learning. Might Summerhill
have the answer?
1 Summerhill has been open for over b years.
a) 150 b) 80 c) 100
2 A. S. Neill thought that should be free to
decide what they want to do.
a) teachers b) students c) parents
3 At Summerhill, students give their opinion
about what happens in the school.
a) have to b) can’t c) can
4 Most students go to classes even if they
don’t have to.
a) always b) rarely c) never
5 Margit always science classes.
a) misses b) going to c) goes to
6 Many people think schoolwork be more
motivating than it is now.
a) doesn’t have to b) should c) shouldn’t

I’m going to travel alone but I expect to meet lots of people. I’m hoping to visit Chile, Ecuador, Columbia and Peru. I’ve always wanted to see Macchu Picchu. Read my travel blog! Bye, George.
