Global Q&A, ‘Name something you learned in school that has stuck with you throughout life?’
Name something you learned in school that has stuck with you throughout life
Lima, Peru. Dora Portocarrero, 44, Sales Representative: At school I remember I discovered that I had a vocation for art, my drawings always got high marks. I learned to do research, and I remember that I wrote a book, 'History of Tucan.' I researched everything about this; it seems I inherited it from my father, because he is a creative artist, designer, and researcher. And now I apply it in my work, and I have a lot of acceptance by my colleagues’ working group. In terms of art, I’ve yet to apply it, but I would like to learn to play the violin, and dance music that I’m passionate about.
From math and research skills, health care awareness, and love, to an appreciation of classical music are still prominent in peoples’ lives around the world today. This is what Epoch Times reporters from Peru to Russia found when they asked locals,
“Name something you learned in school that has stuck with you throughout life?”
