Every second of the day is a
learning experience. You are learning throughout the day and not just learning
at school or at the office. Every individual you meet is a teacher.
For a long time, education
was focused on giving information, curriculum and content to the students. The
difference in LifeSchool is that we make the students give the world what they
already have. The potential they have within is infinite. We just have to
create an environment and give them the tools to light the learning spark in
them.
As a famous quote goes,
‘School is not preparation for life, School is life itself.’ Here are a few
ideas I noted down in a recent brainstorming sessions about a learning
environment I would like to be part of.
