Read the following excerpt from “Our Schools are a Scandal” by Kyle Crichton:

The author used metaphors. Hope that helps :)

The type of figurative language the author used to describe students is the Simile.

What is a simile?

Simile is "a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid (e.g. as brave as a lion )".

The type of figurative language the author used to describe students is the simile because the author compared the students with little demons using the word "as". It cannot be a metaphor because students "are" not demons but they are "as" demons.
