Cultural differences

My visit to USA has taught me many things that are impossible to summarize in a few words.
When we think of education and what we want for our students, we are also thinking about what kind of person we want our students to become.
A trip like this has shown me that although you had an idea of what the human being is and this idea may have been correct; possibly it is not the only correct perception. It is indispensable to avoid relativism, but it is a mistake to think that your way is the only way. I have found many valuable things from each of the different cultures on this trip.
