Liberty University Student Reflection

This book has easily become one of the top books I have read as a Liberty University student since the principles that it includes are extremely applicable. Immediately after I had read about “The Law of the Learner,” I repented of how I used to think. Because I was lazy, I would put the blame on the student if he or she were failing, rather than striving to work harder and learn different ways I could create learners.

I enjoy teaching abstract content such as Math and Philosophy; however, I should reveal that this content is applicable. For instance, when I teach a mathematical concept, I will also teach how professionals use this mathematical concept in their daily
