Critical thinking:
This essay is very much impressive because education is considered supremely valuable . However I am not agree with few ideas of the writer . Is only formal education important ? Can ’t we become educated through informal education? Do all the educated people respected as much as rich businessman and powerful politicians? So I don’ t agree with the writer.
