It has been said that not all learning takes place in the classroom. Compare and contrast knowledge gained from personal experience with knowledge gained from classroom instruction.

'Learning', according to it's dictionary definition, means the process of gaining knowledge through studying. 'Studying' means to spend time learning about a particular subject, or to consider and observe something carefully in order to be able to understand it fully. Therefore, people cannot stop learning throughout their whole life, because they constantly gain knowledge from studying specific subjects in academic institutions and experiencing things in their everyday life.
Knowledges thought in schools are mostly academic facts, each specified and intensified in a certain area. That is, people attain objective and well-classified information that are divided clearly into subjects as mathematics, science, and social studies from classroom instruction. For example, students learn that one plus one equals two. This equation is a definite mathematical fact; it has admit of no arguments depending on who uses it or what circumstances it is applied, and it distinctly belongs to the field of mathematics.
On the other hand, knowledges people learn through personal experiences are subjective and abstract. The knowledges people attain from an experience are all different by people. Even when two people experience a same instance, they get separate learning. Also, those knowledges do not deal with distinct information. They include abstract wisdom, influencing daily lives of people inclusively.
Despite such differences in details, both kinds of knowledge are basically identical. Even though the knowledges learned from classrooms and from experiences might differ in their form and field, what those knowledges aim for is the same. The objective of the knowledges, or the consequence those knowledges brings about is the growth of oneself. People achieve some kind of self-development through all kinds of learning. They broaden their academic knowledges or work in a specific field using informations they learned in schools. At the same time, they develop social skills or attain wisdom of life through knowledges from personal experiences.
As mentioned above, people learn academic knowledges useful for professional fields of work in classrooms. Through personal experiences, people achieve daily life wisdom. Learning, regardless of where it takes place, makes peoples' lives more affluent.

I can see that you have put a lot of thought into your argument for this essay as the sophistication of your argument is really trying to shine through. However, much of your phrasing does seem quite confused and it is difficult for the reader to see exactly what it is you want to say. I would recommend that you spend some time getting to grips with your grammar and phrasing; and I would certainly recommend checking over your work carefully before handing it in.
I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt for this one because despite its weaknesses, I think this essay suggests promise. Grade B-
