Every human beings who are born to this earth have purpose and mission. Socrates mentions that "Un-examined life is not a life worth-living". Education is a tool to assist human development. Education is a platform for people to nurture their talents, to sharpen their minds, and to find opportunities to climb up the social ladder. Children, however, do not grow up in a vacuum. The parenting style, peers and teachers influence, cultural environment, and family's socio-economic backgrounds are all contributed to how children will grow and perceive the world. I would like to share what I have learned through my academic studies and experiences, particularly: Global Citizenship, Early Childhood Education, and Education for Sustainable Development. Life is a continuous learning process and I believe when we share what we learn, not only others will benefit but we also gain more insights perspective to improve ourselves. Warm Regards, Dr. Ailin Iwan Kenneth, Ailin, and Melissa on her baby dedication at St. Andrew's Church in Hong Kong (October 6, 2019) |
