My Educational Journey : My Education Journey

The beginning of my educational journey began at home. Unlike the most kids, my mother had decided to homeschool me for preschool; due to our family’s financial struggles that were very prevalent in my elementary years. Despite English being her second language, she taught me the basics of English and mathematic concepts. As a result, when I entered kindergarten, I was able recall this knowledge and quickly understood the concepts. By the first month, I was already ahead of my classmates. This was

‘Developing my philosophy of education: insights from key educational thinkers’ My emerging philosophy of education is being moulded and developed through experiences, influential opinions, thoughts and views.

The most recent challenges I’ve faced on my pathway to medical school include finding the time and resources to prepare for the MCAT while raising a family and attending school full-time. For as long I as I can remember I wanted to be a physician, but my only concern was how to get there. Growing up my parents emphasized the importance of finishing high school, but never expressed the importance of further my education. They knew my lifelong goals of wanting to be a doctor, but had little understanding

Achievement of Desire” essay, we learn the difficult issues he endured in his educational journey. Rodriguez found himself living in two worlds, life at school and life at home. He expresses how living with immigrant parents was difficult while trying to be a “Scholarship boy.” Knowing he had to become better than his parents and become this “Scholarship boy,” he had to isolate himself from his family to succeed in education. I found myself agreeing with Rodriguez to a great extent. Like Rodriguez,

The term “scholar- practitioner “was first introduce to me during my educational journey when obtaining my Masters at Walden. At this phase of my journey, I still feel as though being an efficient scholar practitioner will always be a work in progress. As a scholar in training, I have learned the value of research and the importance of data. Even though I have a tendency of being a perfectionist I realize that scholars are human and are imperfect creatures. Therefore I can admit that I don’t have
