    Guide questions:

    1. What were the roles performed by Rizal's family while he was growing up as a
    child?
    According to experts, Rizal’s boyhood is typical, similar to other kids his age. Rizal was
    like any other boy. Except for the fact that he was really a bright young kid. Jose Rizal’s
    education started at home with his mom Teodora Alonzo and aunt Narcisa de Quintos
    Alonso as his first teachers. His early studies also started with his teacher Justiniano
    Aquino Cruz. He learned the alphabet from his mother at the age of 3 and could read
    and write at age 5. At the age of 11, he entered the Ateneo School then located at
    the Intramuros in Manila, and he was initially denied entry. But with their family’s
    connections, Doc Jose Rizal was allowed to study at the premier school.
    To grant the request of his father’s Francisco Engracio Rizal Mercado, Rizal took
    the entrance examination in Colegio de San Juan de Letran but then enrolled at the
    Ateneo Municipal de Manila and graduated as one of the nine students in his class
    recognized as sobresaliente or outstanding.
    When Rizal found out that his mother Teodora Alonzo was going blind, he
    decided to take up medicine at the medical school of the University of Santo Tomas. As
    expected, Rizal finished his medical studies with flying colors. 
    But the story of Jose Rizal’s education didn’t stop there. In May 1882, Rizal
    traveled alone to Madrid without his parents’ knowledge but he was secretly supported
    by his Brother Paciano Rizal. There she studied medicine at the where he earned a
    degree. At 25, Rizal completed his eye specialization under the renowned professor,
    Otto Becker in 1887. There he used the newly-invented ophthalmoscope to later operate
    on his own mother’s eye. 

    2. How important is having a family in one's life?


    Having a family is very important because we need a person who support us in
    good or bad times, families can provide the affection and encouragement we needs to
    be content. It can be difficult to find friends or purpose in adulthood. If we have a strong
    family, we will always be able to find the love and support we need.

    3. What is it to be educated?
    Education helps to build character as you learn about different cultures,
    languages and how other people think as well as live. When you have an education you
    are able to fulfill the basic needs in life. You are taught to get dressed, learn self-care
    and practical life skills.
