The Pressures of Education & the Emergence of Brain Fog - Valerie Poh
It’s often said that a good education is the cornerstone for success as it equips us with the know-hows to take on the world and opens up our mind to newer possibilities. Education is meant to be a joyous experience as it feeds our innate capacity for curiosity and discovery, and yet, education has become one of the strongest triggers for stress in modern society. In this thought-provoking talk, 13 year-old Valerie Poh shares her perspectives as a student on the pressures of education and the emergence of brain fog or more commonly known as mental fatigue.
