1. Education has always been an important cause of human society. It is a means to cultivate and improve people's knowledge, skills and moral quality, and an important guarantee for personal growth and social progress. This paper will introduce the essence of education in detail from four aspects: the definition, purpose, mode and environment of education.

This process begins almost unconsciously at birth. It constantly develops personal ability, cultivates personal consciousness, forms personal habits, exercises personal thoughts and stimulates personal feelings and emotions. Because of this unconscious education, individuals gradually share the wisdom and moral wealth accumulated by human beings. The most formal and professional education in the world is really inseparable from this universal process.

3. Education is a systematic, planned, organized, purposeful and infectious activity that affects individual behavior and development. In the process of education, people change others' cognition, attitude, thought and behavior in some way. Education can transmit knowledge through all kinds of information, such as book learning, teachers' teaching, practice, experiment, social interaction and so on.

4. Education aims at improving personal abilities, including knowledge, skills, morality and cultural values. The core goal of education is to make people better and become independent, creative and responsible people. Education aims to cultivate students' thinking ability, communication ability, cooperation ability and critical thinking ability, so as to prepare for their future.

5. The ways of education include imparting knowledge and skills through organized courses, activities and experiences, and gaining experience and wisdom through spontaneous learning and social interaction in family, workplace and other environments. Education is carried out in various environments, including schools, communities and workplaces. In different environments, the methods and forms of education are also different. Choosing appropriate educational methods and places will help to improve learners' learning effect.
