Knack
Is there any difference between "to have a knack for smth" and "to have a knack of smth"?
and please revise this sentence:
" I think American schools can become much more efficient by giving its students, which possess this kind of talents, a chance to develop it in this age, and the school I have described here can set a good example for them."
Thank you in advance
