Lifelong Learning

For

"Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself."

- John Dewy

I believe we learn throughout our lifetime. Thus, it is important that we keep challenging ourselves and never easily give up since we encounter various barriers along the journey of learning.

Unfortunately, many young learners in Korea seem that they want to master English as if there is an end to it. They study English to get good scores in tests, to enter prestigious schools, or to get a good job in the future. Rather enjoying the learning itself, they are under a lot of pressure to be better than others. Even if they succeed one goal, they would constantly meet other challenges in their life.

Such negative perception and attitude toward learning and the nature of learning in life often lead the learners to frustration and abandonment whenever they confront with difficulties or limits. In order for learners to overcome the obstacles, they must have persistent interests and passion in learning. In turn, learners are able to have positive attitude toward learning which makes "Lifelong learning" possible.
