Education: The Importance Of Education In Education

What does it mean to be well educated? When it comes to education everyone wants the best for themselves and their families. Education now more than ever is a necessity when it comes to being successful in life. You can ask just about anyone about education and they will have a story to tell. There are many problems with education today, many people believe that kids are being bombarded with to much homework at such a young age or that it is standardize testing that can hurt as students self esteem. One of the bigger issues of recent discussion is that school is ruining a young child’s creativity. The three issues that must first be addressed first are that there are a lack of teachers who genuinely care about their students ' success,

They are the ones we build relationships with. They help us when we need it and applaud us when we do well. I think now more than ever the education system lacks teachers who truly care about the outcome of their student 's success.

Mike Rose 's story “Finding our way” I felt best related to this issue I was having.

The quote that I feel best represents Rose 's story is “A good education helps us to make sense of the world and find our way in
