\u201cWhen you find an instructor that can spark your interest, that\u2019s a good thing that can channel your energy in a positive way. Lifelong learning is a process that anchors you and gives you space for yourself in a non-threatening environment. Learning is a gift.\u201d<\/blockquote><\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n\n\n
