And your site strives at improving Israel's education system, how?
Spare me the "We're challenging contemporary teaching methodologies" drivel,
I'm sure you're intelligent enough to understand that's populistic rhetoric.
At least concede that your site is conforming to the masses of students who
wish to take the easy route, it has absolutely _NOTHING_ to do with the
supposed low quality of Israeli teachers. As a side-note, Israel's teachers
are not of the "lowest level available", that's another arrogant, hostile,
wildly unbased and popular claim. Your site doesn't contain any constructive
criticism about Israel's education system, nor does it describe how to
resolve problems. Displaying your site as a righteous guardian of education
and thinking is not only an utter lie, it's loathly arrogant. Your site
exploits a very simple need, which exists independently of the education system.
Let's examine your banner. It contains three sentences:
1) Remember more
2) Better grades
3) Study faster
(The banner also depicts several stacks of books crossed by a line)
You say that you wish to improve the education system, but doesn't all of the
above reek of conformance to the education system? i.e., do what you're told
to with minimal effort. If anything, your site is a pillar of dangerous
compliance. Take your fantasies about "making a difference" elsewhere.

That's so kind of you; you're such a valuable contribution to the Israeli
mind pool.
