“Learning is never done without errors and defeat.”

Education can open our eyes and expand our minds unlike anything else. It allows us to continually reshape how we see the world, leading to an improved and more well-rounded life. And it all starts with being a student. Regardless of what level of education you’ve completed, we gain knowledge through books, travel, or simply speaking with people who’ve had differing life experiences.

As homeschooling and online learning become the new norm, parents are realizing first-hand the challenges that teachers face each day and have taken to Twitter to express their gratitude. Some have called for pay raises for teachers, while others have simply lauded educators as heroes.
