The focus of this part of our guide is on topics related to instruction, teaching, and education in Monroe, Michigan.
While instruction and teaching are part of education, teaching is more involved than instruction. In short, instruction tells someone how something is done while teaching explains how it is done. Often, they go hand in hand, but teaching is more complex.
For the most part, the resources listed in this guide will consist of websites representing various types of educational programs and institutions in Monroe, such as child care centers and preschools in the city, and K-12 school systems and campuses, whether public, private, or religious in nature. Homeschooling programs based in Monroe would be appropriate for this category, as well. Also suitable for this category are Monroe vocational schools, colleges, or universities, as well as specialized instructional programs, such as driver training programs, music instruction, or instruction in dance, drama, and so on.
