The purpose of education is to give as much as knowledge to everyone. Although students don’t learn in the classroom, it’s not mean they cannot get knowledge. Because of interesting cases, nowadays a lot of private schools are opened and let students to get knowledge, which we call types of this study is non-formal education. Why do people need to have non-formal education when they have formal education already?
The reasons will be described below and organized. Firstly, non-formal education helped to save time. Students needn’t have to go school, sit and listen to their teacher for a long time every day. When students want to get knowledge and spend little time, they just go to outside class and spend only one to two hours per day and they will get knowledge as they learned at school. Moreover, for employees who want to improve their knowledge they can spend their free time studying. They didn’t need to go to school or university, sit and tolerate the lessons you don’t want. Secondly, fast developing, non-formal education helped students to improve their ability faster than usual because when students didn’t like the teacher at their school, they couldn’t do anything and just sat down and put up with their teacher’s action. When students don’t love their teacher, how can they understand their teacher’s lessons? However, non-formal education can help to solve these problems through students can choose teachers they like and study with. When they feel good with their teacher, they can focus more on lessons and ease to understand. Finally, having more chances to study abroad, as everyone knows public school or we call formal education cannot give scholarship information as much as we need, yet when we study outside we can know more about those information and have more opportunity to go overseas. This all is because of non-formal education.
From my experience, I learned a lot from outside the school since the education taught only the fixed content in the book and it seemed to be the traditional way of study that I cannot beat with the students in the city. I supposed everyone would use non-formal education to support their study since we’re not competing with your classmates in one school but you’re competing with the world.
All in all, non-formal education is vitally important because it helps students to save more time, improve their knowledge faster and have more options to go overseas. In my own opinion, education has only one main purpose: to give knowledge to people. If people can learn, people shouldn’t mind about formal or non-formal education because all of it also helped us to achieve our goal as well.
