Making people to read and write is education’s main objective. Reading and writing are the first steps to literacy. Numerous options for development and success are made available by education. Education generally leads to a more mellow and assured personality.
The discipline and awareness of time are traits of an educated people. Being educated enables one to express oneself and voice their opinions. It is easy for one to express their opinions because they are backed by reasoning.
A well-educated person instructs and uplifts everyone with whom they come into contact. Education also keeps one current. A person with a good education can readily adapt to technological advancements. More than anything else, education is a source of hope, yearning for a better life, for prosperity and freedom from poverty.
