Learning4Ever

The "7 1/2 Habits of Highly Successful Lifelong Learners" highlights in a few sentences what teachers everywhere have been trying to communicate. Learning is not just one subject in high school that is forgotten about the minute the test is done. No, the learning referred to in the tutorial is learning that will never be forgotten and will be used continuously throughout life. The habit that I think will be easiest to follow is to view all problems as challenges. I enjoy challenges because I love the feeling of accomplishment after all the obstacles are overcome. The hardest habit to acquire will be to teach and mentor others. I can teach people I know comfortably, but showing strangers how to do a skill is often difficult for me to do.
