After visiting the classroom a handful of times, I absolutely fell in love.…

Aside from the repetitive, monotonous, and progressive difficulty of the curriculum of reading, writing, and arithmetic, school has taught me more than what was intended.…

    People have different reasons for continuing their education. My primary reason for continuing my education is I want to learn new things and keep abreast to changes. Another big concern of mine is that new ideas and solutions to problems are discovered every day through technology. Being that I am closing in on 50 in a couple years, the things I have learned have become out dated. So in order to be successful at anything people have to stay abreast of the things going on around them.…
