Six dimensions of learning

The core of this learning is academic achievement and character building. Academic learning is mainly focused on classroom learning. Teacher is giving the lecture and students are picking. Besides these there are social learning, cultural learning, economic learning, political learning and technological learning. Confidence and independence learning is necessary for practical life. Without confidence knowledge can not be applied. With confidence, a shy student begins to trust her own abilities, and to insist on presenting her own point of view in discussion. With discussion problem becomes narrower.  Taylor's International school is giving these learning.
