Why we should all go back to school | Sherry Coutu | TEDxHousesofParliament

[@Brandi.Nicole]

You know you’re heading down the right path & in the right career when she starts speaking about statistics and you get emotional and want to tear up. At 37 I am going back to school for Educational Leadership (PhD program) to make a difference & promote this very connection & change.

[@Paula-pr1bo]

Good luck Brandi, you inspire me ❤

[@bridgetcarr1236]

I'm starting University at the same time as two of my daughters. I'm not going to work after my degree. I will have more to learn and inspire others

[@CarlosKBaker]

Bridget, did you do it? Did you go back to university? How’s it going?

[@Brandi.Nicole]

Same! 37 and my kids are 16 and 18! Both starting college. Life started out rough but I think we will all succeed and prevail. 🙌 I hope your education is coming along well and you find your happiness in your career path!

i got my bachelors at 38. I am going back to grad school now at 39 haha. The classes just give me the confidence to understand stuff in industry that before I was afraid of.

[@Brandi.Nicole]

I am right with you! Well, a little behind you actually by a year. I’m going all the way for my PhD in Educational Leadership. Congrats on continuing your education - in that field your pay increase will raise substantially! I teach STEM (yes, without a piece of paper that says I know what I’m doing 😂) to be taken seriously by legislators and policy makers I must have that piece of paper that says I know my stuff. So, I’ll get it - then maybe my voice will be heard (without changing my name to Steve)

An inspiring talk from a successful, self made entrepreneur for the future generation of entrepreneurs: education matters.

[@terrypeople9616]

Sarah Laurence Sarah my name is Terry People. I agree with you education does matter.

Doesn’t matter. Education only matters if you wanna be an average person and not a person who wants to leave their mark on this planet before they die

I'm 37 and I need a career. Being a "worker bee" in a office sucks. I want to fo back to school, but the thought of students loans at this is deterring me. I don't make enough to pay out of pocket!

[@CatchDaBean]

kamy s I pay out of pocket and it’s been a pain in the rear end. Hope you find a solution.

[@brandonwestbrook9802]

Do some research into some jobs that will be available to you once you complete your degree. You might have to get loans to go to school, but if you'll be making 2x or 3x what you're making now, you could pay the loans off rather quickly when you graduate.

[@poisedjoy1765]

It depends on your major. Please do your research before going to college to make sure you are going for a career that in demand. Robots and artificial intelligence will wipe out many jobs, so plan for the future wisely. Self-checkout is only the beginning!

i am 45 years old and many years working in offshore oil and gas field as commercial diver finally became project manager. i back to my country and got a new job which is completely different from what i did in oversea without university degree. i couldn't carry on my old job carrier because i didn't have uni degree. i do not know this is the right reason i am thinking to go back school. i haven't found what is really good and interested subject to study. Just i felt i like ocean and being around water circumstance so .. i am thinking to study marine science or similar thing. thank you for your saying @sherrycoutu it is very inspired me... / worry to communicate by english again too.. many worry things... anyway, thanks lot to share your thought.

[@TheeGreenApple]

Even tho I'm 11 personally I dont see the point this is how life goes birth to work to even more years of work then to elder then death and if we don't do that stuff we end up starving to death so this is why I disagree I'm a child but I already gave up on my dreams I wanted to become a scientist when I grow up but I hate math after I figured out you need math for everything that broke me forever now every time i go home from school I cry my self to sleep knowing I'll be doing this kind of stuff until I die as I said this is personal for me I may be a child but I know a little how love works how people work how school works when I was 7 I was all like " i want to have a wife be a good worker have fun and live long " but now my life is already filled with despair one of the things that also made school hard for me is my principle I was blamed for doing something I didn't do I tried to say something but she wouldn't listen cuase I'm a child and then I was blamed for lying another day she said " Hey I told you not to do that now you lie that you didnt hear me your close to the door you say your freind talking to me and you say you heard nothing " I was telling my freind to come because my teacher called the class and I thought he was talking to random parent after that half of the class hated me then when I was mad the teacher said if you will behave that way I'll send to back to the principle also my principles name is Dr. Castain now any other people who disagree with me saying " but you did do something wrong " fine say that I don't care all I'm complaining about is that I have to go back to school after all my life is only bad enough I'm trying to enjoy my last days of summer and ignore the fact my life span is shortening goodbye I hope you have a better life :(

Dont, keep learning. You will live out there doing something, it might be boring,difficult, competetive( bullying)or you might fail. But you will learn and it will help you figure out who you are in the process. Then, you will discover what works for you. Giving up sometimes is ok, but dont let those temporary situations or feelings put you off.
