BELIEVE

  • We can create a better world, but it must be done with purpose and with conviction.
  • That people desire a better world, and that humanity seeks purpose and meaning.
  • That education plays a critical role in making this happen through our individual development and the development of humanity.
  • That a better world will foster even greater individual growth and development, which will catalyze continual improvement of the human condition. In this way, a better world is both an end and a means.

A note from Andrew...

Thank you for visiting Better World Learning!  
 
In 2002, I made the decision to leave a successful career in the commercial sector to move into education.  I often say that my career ended and my life’s work and mission began with that change.  People ask me why I took such a risk to make that change, and the answer is simple.  I wanted to help make a positive contribution to the world through education.  It turned out to be a life changing decision. 
 
Upon entering education, I was immediately surrounded by educators who taught me and showed me what being mission and purpose driven was all about.  I was and continue to be humbled by their dedication to each individual student, all in an effort to help move this world forward.  I’ve been fortunate to have met thousands of teachers and students from dozens of countries across six continents, and they all share that same motivation.
 
So this initiative, which I call Better World Learning is dedicated to them, and anyone else who works to create a better world.  It is intended to help create awareness of the outstanding work being done around the world.
 
Kindest Regards,
Andrew
