Some quotes from our final lesson: How to teach, things to remember, trust yourself and love:

There are people who are free thinkers. These people learn because they experience. They love, they explore, they make mistakes, they experiment. And then there are the people who learn by being told. They accept what is being taught because they think it is what they are supposed to do. These people grow up and vote. It is a scary concept.

I am fortunate to work in a country where everyone has not lost their mind. Some of the world has gone completely crazy with assumptions that people are naturally bad. In Italy, they still appreciate the importance of human interaction and affection. It is not assumed that a male who wants to be a teacher is a disgusting pedophile.
