INTRODUCTION

          Education is one of the basic needs of every individual. It plays a vital role in the making of human personalities; life style, principles in life, insights, and the pursuit to happiness.It is the great avenue where every person can become educated and learned. But how can one be called educated? How can one be called learned? Attaining the height of education is the "educated" sense, and living what has been learned is the "learned" sense.

          Each individual has its own level of exposure and understanding to things, but we all have the same purpose of having education, for our growth and survival and so that we can be both educated and learned.

          Had there be no push before of having education, from informal to formal, for sure we would still be in the realm of believing things that are only the products of our hypothesizing minds which were also drawn from the lessons learned by our predecessors in their mothers' knees, rather than the scientific ones.

          If we consider learning as part of an ongoing life cycle, each day may bring insights to us as teachers. Mentors as models of minds and personalities, young or old, are just one of the many avenues of learning. Although the teacher is a focal point for the many features of education, still he/she could not be considered the sole conduit to learning because pupils/students in any means also exert effort in the molding of his/her own being and of teachers as well.

          Informal to formal, passe to innovative, and aging to growing had been the dualities in education ever since. Whatever it had been and whatever will it become such propensities add to the savory beauty of education then, now, and on.
