Education

Open book, hardback books on wooden table.

When I started thinking about why education is so important, I remembered my four years at University when I used to spend almost five hours a day on math homework, wake up at 6:00 AM and get ready for my classes at school. I remembered my teachers, school subjects, the study and the fun! I never really hated school. But I have seen many of my peers who hated going to school; I have had some friends who did not like the idea of studying. Some needed to be up in summer school for recovery. I personally was always focused because I wanted to become a math teacher. I know it will be hard and very challenging. However I believe I can handle the challenge.

Education gives us a knowledge of the world around us and changes it into something better. It develops us a perspective of looking at life. It helps us build opinions and have points of view on things in life.

Education makes us capable of interpreting things, among other things. It is not just about lessons in textbooks. It is about the lessons of life. One thing I wish I can do is, to provide education for all: no child left behind and change the world for good!!
