So, i truly hesitated reading another one of these cheat code story (hate them), but being sleepless, i thought i would probably get super bored by… and sleep soon. I didn’t. I get that the first few chapter are awkward and might give the impression that he actually truly managed to raise « just because he got the questions through the magic key ». But this is just a bypass to escape the bullies (director and colleague), and it soon gets better. (I think the author is also confused) Also, and most importantly, the focus is not there. When it comes to the first girl, what matter is the trust he gave and received. From the perspective of a child who gave up on herself, being able to learn within the scope of question she will get is a must. I’s a litterary test, he could never give her a straight answer she would copy. What he does is explain her and she works enough to understand . Luckily, she gets rewarded, and though that experience, starts to believe she can really do something and try a bit longer. When it comes to the bet with his mean colleague, honestly, it’s just bad. It’s also rather harmless. He will never teach the kids and they have prepared so so much, that even with a cheat, they probably just deserve the grade they got. But it’s not smart writing. And luckily, the cheat fades in a more appropriate background as it goes. The math teacher story brings about a meaningful take on real education vs test result focused education, and this is where it truly becomes interesting This is not a story about a cheat key, this is a criticism a a modern education system which breaks children through constant evaluation and discrimination. Through several stories, including his own, the MC will explore this sytem and give a better answer - with the help of the key - averaging the odds for lost cases.
It’s not for nothing some northern europeaan country totaly gave up on grading kid, to let them enjoy learning for the sake of learning. Because brain developement is different in pacing and places, lots of kids who simply don’t learn can get labeled as bad, and give up on learning, when the truth is they were simply taught when they were not ready. It’s also true for children who are not visual / auditive dominant in their learning abiliies. Schools are very destructive to too many kids. Shouldn’t their true purpose should not be grading, but teaching, sharing knowledge and growing and appetite to learn ? This why the cheat key is not that important.
For a starter, it doesn’t give answers, but questions. Obviously, even if he does have the question, the MC can only work harder and improve himself to teach efficiently. And the same goes for the kids. It continous effort that buid knowledge and method. I believe the « cheat idea » is not certainly not the greatest, and i would think, even the author is embarrassed with it. But so far, the MC is still the honest guy who deserved to be gifted that tool to better world, and give humane answer to a very toxic school system. You’re welcome to curse at that bad idea, but i hope some will enjoy the better part of the story, as it’s truly nice to see somthing different , but also which manages to both shake a very tree, without getting dark and pessimistic. It was also very enlightening , coming from a different culture.
