In another article "why do they know that?" I talk about how sometime people got to know some things. And how different point of view teach us the same thing. On this article I would like to focus on how do we learn. We all know the important and the value of a teacher. In fact every occupation was taught by a teacher. The more educated a society is, the more advanced they are. Education is a form of creating a society civilized.
For those of you who do not know Malala Yousafzai. She is a Muslim, Hindu girl who wanted nothing but to learn and educate herself. But as you would know, the majority of the Muslim community do not believe that female should be educated. It is so much that she wanted to learn, that a radical Muslim shot her in the head. But because she is a strong soul. She pulled through and survive. Today she is a strong Muslim female activists that is pushing toward giving every Muslim girl the opportunity of an education. While many Muslim female risk their life to go to school to get educated. Many people in different country truly take for granted the idea of going to school.
But don't think that a teacher is the only source of education. A parent also play an important role in a child educational development. They will be teaching the child not only what they known but also the personal life experience. Given the child the opportunity to learn the different between right and wrong, between ethics and unethical, between moral and immoral. Although a child learn in school in what I called the mechanical learning. But what the shower would learn at home will be them with deeper educational value. For it was set the rules and value for each how to live in a civilized society thing. For it will determine whether when he grow up, that he may develop a chemical that might kill thousands of people. Or develop a medicine that can cure thousands of people.
But don't get me wrong. For both Avenue is as important as the other one. No child should be limits to his maximum potential. But at the same time every child learn and develop different from others.

As I have just shown you two avenue sources in which a child to learn from. Now come to the part in which I intended for this article. And that is how do we teach. I will not get into the area in which the Institute of a schoolteacher get their skills. They are already University or College in which an individual can become a schoolteacher. But the area that I wish to talk about is the role of the parent teaching their children. It is true that parent get some of their education skills from their own parent. And then pass it on to their children. But they also use their life experience from their mistake and their achievement. And also pass it on to their children.
Sometime they are some parent that buy books to help them better understand child behavior, and how they can teach them about many issues. I believe that it's not a bad idea. For any parent to obtain any tools to further develop their skills in helping a child development is by all means very helpful. But one thing that has never failed in learning how to teach any child. It simply by beginning to talk to their children.
People always believe that listening is a form of learning. But also talking and sharing your views and opinion is a form of learning also. When you are talking to your child and teaching down some life experience that you have had. You will discover new ideas of how to better show your child what you're trying to express. You will develop skills like metaphor to better shown a picture of what you trying to same. You know what I mean, like the birds and the bees metaphor. It will probably shown every day life situation to bring about the point of view. It really doesn't require to be a scientist or a psychiatrist to teach your child. All it takes is a few moment of your time to sit down and have a conversation. Your shower would learn the skill of communication. Instead of your showered asking questions and getting answer from other stranger. It is better for you shall develop communication with their parent. And remember, don't worry if you do not have all of the answer. It is probably very likely that other one have either.
On a personal note I don't think that "common core" will be of benefits in a group of children or even as an individual. I believe that a shower would be better off by letting teacher work as they see it shower development. And also parent been able to have control what is appropriate for this shot.
Before leaving any common always take a look at the important note to your right.
Bless you all and be well.
