Education is a process of giving or receiving systematic instructions throughout school and college life. I believe that education is a personal experience for an individual, who seeks to learn something new. Education changes the lifestyle of children, who enter the class room. The learning processes, environment and teachers would change the thinking pattern of students throughout the life. This is the reason why I always believe in great learning environment where a child receives instructions that help him or her to lead the life. Learning does not stop at the primary education. For me, it is a life time process where in we learn something at each and every step.
In my view, teachers should assume the role of educating the children. Teachers should facilitate a student's growth in terms of both personally and ethically. It is possible only when a teacher is committed to provide quality education that helps children to equip with the required tools to succeed in life.
The goals of education and teacher should be the same - providing the necessary tools to help children live quality life. Quality of education will depend on the democratic environment and the relationship between teacher and students in the class room. I believe in establishing the mutual respect, trust and honesty between a teacher and a student. After all, if a student does not trust his teacher, he will never listen and try to implement what teacher is saying. So, in my view, it is the mutual respect and trust between students and teacher that helps providing quality learning environment.
[...] I have seen many students, who usually get good grades but their application capabilities will be zero. We just need to blame the education system that does not encourage practical learning style, which is very important to survive in this technology driven modern world. This is primarily due to old educational pattern, lack of personal mentoring and poor learning environment (Alfassi, 2004). If the education system changes, things like personal mentoring and learning environment will automatically be changed. The educational system can be changed with the collaborative approach of parents, teachers and students. [...]

[...] My philosophy of education is to bring a change in student's mind set towards the education. Most of us think that education is all about reading academic books and getting good grades. But, there is a lot more beyond the grades. Education is a process where in you learn an ethical method to lead quality life. When education influences our life in a great way, why should we only concentrate on grades leaving the logic of how education influences the life? [...]
[...] That was the only aim most of the students had got in their education life. But, the reality is different. You have to be more practical while studying anything in life. You have to examine where you can use a theory in your real life. For instance, I studied about solar energy in my school days but I did not think about the applications of the same. I knew the benefits of solar energy but when it comes to the question, how to get those benefits, there was no answer from me. [...]
[...] Studying merely for the marks and grades will not serve the purpose of education. Conclusion Education should help students to live quality life. Getting good marks and grades is not an education. Education is a process of learning new things and getting equipped with the necessary tools to lead successful and ethical life. If education does not help people in leading a quality life, there must be a problem with the educational system and learning environment. Students are going behind the success; Students should know that if they do not follow excellence, success will not follow them. [...]
