- It’s the second May Bank Holiday here in the UK and the kids are on half term break. In your country, do schools have a ‘Half Term’ break? Usually, schools here in North Carolina have a Spring break (week), summer break (schools out 3 months), Thanksgiving (2 days), and Christmas ( 2 weeks)
- Education methods have changed a lot since I left school in 1972.
Would you like to be learning in a classroom of today? The times have changed way too much these days in Education. No, I would not care to study with the views of the world today. There are not as many morals as when I grew up. - Did you leave school as soon as you could, or did you go on to study for a degree or other higher education? I sustained my traumatic brain injury at 17 which was my senior year of high school. I was able to graduate that year with the help of a homebound teacher (from February to May which was graduation) I took off the summer but returned to a Technical school in my area to further my education.
- When you entered the working world, did your job require ‘qualifications’ or did you learn on the job? That is complicated for me. As far as a career. I never had one. Jobs, yes. However, I did go to school for education. Particularly early elementary education, to become a teacher. I have a certificate for physical therapy which comes in handy for my disabilities from TBI. I also have a diploma in cosmetology that I use to cut my husband’s hair and his facial grooming. I also worked on my bachelor’s degree in Education ( I have an Associate in Applied Science and an Associate in Education); I am where I need to be to be able to be a caregiver for my husband. All education is never lost.
