I think the style needs to be changed because the kids just aren't getting it. It seems the teachers expect the parents to "teach" the kids at home what they did not understand at school and we as parents have no idea how they are teaching the things, it is not the same as when we went to school. I also think that the schools are pushing the kids a little to hard. an example is my youngest son is in 4th grade and doing algebra in math, what happened to "basic" math? The spelling is so advanced that I even have a hard time with some of the words and I am not dumb.

I was born in 1985, and I think my generation is the cut-off point for the old way of learning. Take English, for example, which for me meant phonics and repetition, and it worked.
I have heard now that grammar is taught differently in schools. I think there is something to be said for the old methods, and that reinforcing knowledge through memorization supplemented with some theory works.
It can be compared to learning a foreign language: would you rather get a phrase book and study scenarios for the tourist, or simply take a year or two and work from the very beginning with vocab, grammar, and tenses, and learn the real language as it was meant to be learned?

The teaching style and the methods should be changed because apparently schools are not teaching how to write grammatically correct sentences.

People have different ways to learn.
