Education is the process by which people gain knowledge , skills , habits , and values .

should help a person become a useful member of society . It should also help him develop
an understanding of his culture and live in a better life . The most common way to get an
education is to attend school . But much education also takes place outside the class room .

themselves . But they also learn with the help of other people such as parents or teachers .
