Wanting To Learn

Hello, I am wondering if there is anyone else that is going back to High School on line  that is  over fifty?  Do you find it hard? I ask that, because I find it extremely difficult  I am sixty-seven ,and find that the math was and is worth the work. I passed the first course and now on to Lesson 2.

    That is awesome you are going for your diploma. I'm not over 50, I'm 22 but, I was able to convince my mom who is in her mid-40's to go back to school and get her diploma. i am so proud of her for doing it. She does find it difficult at times but she is doing very well. I wish you all the luck in your classes.

    Hello godschild739

     

    I'm 43 and I'm going back to school as well to get my HS Diploma. Yes it can be very challenging at times.

    There are at times I wonder why I am doing this at times,specially went I get so frustrated at math and Science. I don't remember half the stuff they throw at me. But when I look at my 4 children specially my youngest son who is struggling with school. I tell him if your ol mom can go back to school and get her HS diploma you can do this to.

     

    There are a few reason why I'm going back to school 1.For myself of course  2. I promised my mom that I would finish getting my HS Diploma ( Wish she was still alive so she could see my diploma when I get it or even go to see me at the Graduation ceromony) 3. For my children

     

    Well I wish you all the luck!
