Etymology

The word 'educate' originates from the Latin word 'educare', which means to 'bring up' or 'rear'. In the Middle Ages, education was primarily reserved for the elite classes, but over time it became more accessible to the general population. The concept of education has evolved to encompass formal schooling, self-directed learning, and continuous personal development.
