I believe that all students can learn and achieve and that while mistakes are part of learning, one should not be discouraged and give up; it is always all too easy to give up and just "get by" with the group and hope for a good grade. That is not the point of education; education it should be to develop the individual to recognize their own unique traits and abilities. Education is as much about understanding
who, what and where you are; a point of understanding from which one can proceed...
