Education Majors, Their Insight
“What a child is taught, is what they become.” This is a quote, in my eyes, that reflects a teacher’s job description. When a child is taught all of the core subjects, they automatically have one that speaks to them which later becomes their life’s work. If one teacher can make that huge of an impact on a student’s life, then knowledge truly is power. The process of teaching and learning involves the concept of give and take. The teacher gives and takes that information in order to give away to another. Anyone can teach and learn information, but it’s the way how to approach the relationship in classroom with the students. The relationships between students and teachers are important because children will learn better if they feel as if they have a connection to someone they can trust. Without teachers we would not have doctors, lawyers, police officers, accountants, or scientists.

One of the guys in my class pissed me off by existing. You know the type, someone just doesn’t fit your ideal and everything about them makes you roll your eyes. You watch them pick up a pen, and that small gesture pisses you off.
Great Advice from Great Writers
Given the length of time I’ve been writing, I’ve picked up some useful advice from other authors. Here is a distillation of the best.
Sebastian PhillipsPublished 7 years ago in JournalI Feel Sooo ADD Today!
“God! I feel so ADD today! I can’t seem to do anything today!” I hear things like this all the time coming from people who do not have ADD or ADHD. In short, do not call your inability to focus for one day, ADD. It is not a thing that happens one day then “poof” disappears the next. ADD/ADHD is a serious learning disability and when people make light of it creates a stigma that ADD/ADHD is not a big deal.

I hate “firsts.” First days of school, first days on the job, first dates, first time driving, first drink, first time ANYTHING. My life has been burdened, furthermore, with the gift of social awkwardness. The first day at the academy was mostly introductions. I was waiting outside the first classroom, encased in glass for all to see like bacteria on petri dishes. The instructor was quiet, maybe mouthed a small, “Hello,” while turning through her teaching plan. That is to say, if the academy had one. I sat closest to the door, that way I never had to struggle to wait behind a line of people before leaving. As the hour grew closer, more students started to sprinkle into the room. Surprisingly, the class was outweighed by guys. This was due to the academy’s barbering curriculum, and, at the time, there were no barbering schools within the state. A thin variety of beauty schools provided such extensive training. Usually, cosmetologists had to invest in that sort of thing on their own outside of school. Or, frankly, learn in the field.
Rebel Without a Book
Banned books has always been a subject that fascinates me. Some are banned for truly ludicrous reasons, like the previous banning of Alice in Wonderland in China's Hunan province (circa 1931) for "displaying anthropomorphised animals acting on the same complexity level as humans." Censor General Ho Chien believed, at the time, that it would teach children to view animals and humans on the same level, with "disastrous" consequences. Some, like The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank, are banned for downright offensive reasons (banned in Lebanon for portraying Jewish people in "too favourable a light").
