Education I've translated this text from one language to English, and I'm not sure that I did it well. Please, English-speakers, could you check it and find mistakes? Thanks a lot! Education and self-education. What is an education? When we hear about an education, we always think about kindergartens, schools, universities and other institutions like music schools or colleges. All people have different opinions about an education. You can get an excellent one at school, but there are not so many really good educational institutions in our country. That’s why they say that Russian education leaves much to be desired. One man imparts knowledge to another. Plato said that a man grows wise when contemplate ideas which means to be well-educated. Not only your career and finances but your whole life depends on an education. The smart man could do everything. An education makes us feel confident about ourselves. If the man has a profession he would not only have a lot of money but he would be respected by everyone. An education makes a man stronger, helps him to rise above others. Every intelligent family should have a person (usually a man) with diploma. Plato had a follower – Aristotle. And he said that it’s important to learn science. The most important doctrine for Plato was a supramundane reality. Aristotle thought that we have to explore our real world. He developed the ways of understanding this world. Aristotle believed that an education has to include studying specific science. There are two ways of getting a good education. And the first one (as I said) is educational institutions. The second one is a self-education.
