    the private. I always thinking in positive way as I have unique logo is called
    be optimistic that word make me feel happy and use challenging way to face
    any difficulties. I inspire changing the education environment for the primary
    students that is by applying theory that is called learning by doing. It means
    students learn by doing kinesthetic, physical and mix visual with auditory
    methods in learning rather than using bored ways like make highlights and
    write notes. So, I am ready to achieve my big goal to improve the education

    outside the class especially in the garden to be more convenient for children
    while doing activities rather than the class. It is like also change the
    environment but the answer was refused at all to do it in the class. What is
    happened then, when I was introducing the activity for children unknown
    person informed me to do it in the outside now especially in the garden. But
    how and why? Well, that thing wasted time lots to prepare materials outside

    environment for me. As I had experiences with it, I observed that teacher job
    provides different activities for students for celebration days and make open
    days. That is really make children to be interested. Moreover, the
    environment is convenient in different fields such as the desk, have meting
    room to do duties rather than the desk and help me to acquire full
    experiences.
