When I was a high school student, I hate going to school during the rainy season, so I always wanted to start the course in the summer. In the meantime, it is difficult to go to school. Floods and typhoons are just a few of the reasons I do not like class in the rainy season. Most time courses are suspended
When the grade begins to change, high school graduates who choose to go on to college have a longer rest period (about 5 months) than the current two months from graduation to university graduation.
The advantage of changing the course is that it can be tailored to the international academic calendar. Most of the academic years in the US and Europe begin in mid-July to the first week of September. Some people can start from the first week of October. The K + 12 program is part of this adjustment to promote the mutual recognition treaty between Philippine diploma and other national academic institutions.
One disadvantage of Mobile Academic Calendar is that they must be taught during the hottest month of the year. Imagine that not all classrooms are ventilated, especially in the Philippines.
Overall, class change from June to August is fair. It will be in line with international academic challenges. Our graduates will be easier to find jobs in other countries than before. Thus, if they are planning to work overseas, students from our country will be more capable and ready.
On logistics side, I am going to study in Amsterdam from June 20th to August 10th, from August 11th to August 18th in Amsterdam.

I plan to visit there in Barcelona, London, Paris, Berlin on a long weekend to maximize my time and distance in most parts of Europe.

These differences are caused by serious inequalities such as parliament and private houses in certain places, education in certain schools compared to national education, private medicine for NHS medicine, and high-end medical treatment for paying low salaries It can be identified. Or there is no career opportunity. Drawbacks may also be caused by accents, dialects, appearance and clothes, and human addictive leisure activities. There may be other inequalities not so obvious from the social class, which will affect the chances of life in a person.
What are the strengths and weaknesses of online classes? Students will encounter these problems when they decide to take an online course. Usually, their time is valuable as students are working full time or part time at college. Because these students want to make the right decisions when choosing a course, it is important to understand the pros and cons. Online courses offer flexibility. They often offer almost any kind of course and provide teacher access. In addition, they often offer accelerated courses, and although they did not last, they are useful for students. However, online courses have drawbacks such as lack of supervision, online course cost (usually expensive), procrastination problems.
