Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
– Nelson Mandela, anti-apartheid revolutionary and politician.
Nelson Mandela perfected everything I would want to say regarding the power of education. Education is a means of learning, informing, friendship, collaborating, and so much more. The possibilities brought forth by the act of educating are endless.
A thirst for knowledge and a desire to teach are two things that I have held on my shoulders as far back as I can remember. From playing school with my Barbies as a child, to actually creating interactive lesson plans in my early twenties. I have always dreamed of being in front of a classroom, encouraging in my students that same thirst for knowledge I have always had.
Creating this Word Press ePortfolio has really made me want to continue posting my progress. I never really liked the idea of blogging or online portfolios, but now I love it! This semester has been full of ups and downs, positives and negatives, and most of all, incredible learning experiences. As finals approach me, I have realized that this has been an amazing journey and I wish nothing but for it to continue.
Bye for now & thank YOU for following along on my journey.
