Week of: Jan. 25- 31.

The readings from Mr. Dewey’s “Experience and Education” have made me reflect on my own educational experience. As an immigrant, I’ve had the privilege of being educated in two different countries.
My educational experience began in Mexico. I completed kindergarten and elementary school in Torreon, Coahuila, Mexico. As far back as I can remember, I was a very happy child. I remember that the learning environment embraced me as one of their own. I was considered an asset, not a burden.
All I can say for my educational experience in the United States is that I’m grateful for the knowledge that I’ve been taught by my teachers and professors. I am truly grateful for all that I’ve learned. However, I would of much rather stayed in Mexico and completed my academic career there.
