I recently transferred back to Post Oak from Duchesne. I have gone to Montessori my whole life, except for those two months at Duchesne. I found that I didn't like the traditional teaching method because it makes you learn things by memorizing them, and to me, that isn't learning. I also wasn't feeling academically challenged and thought I was losing my hard working skills that I got from being a Montessori student my whole life. It was hard for me to admit that I had made a mistake in choosing Duchesne, but I knew that I needed to in order to get the education I need.
Now that I'm back at Post Oak, I have found that I like it more than I thought I would. Everyone has been super welcoming and I feel like I never left. I'm super glad that I came back, and even though I wish I had trusted my gut and gone to Post Oak in the first place, I wouldn't give up my experience at Duchesne. Being at Duchesne taught me a lot about myself that I never would have learned otherwise, but now I'm just glad I'm back.
