▶ Your Answer : Some people think that teacher should be I think it is more important for teachers to connect with students than to be experts in their fields. This is because students can learn more in the same time of the class and being experts does not mean the high quality of the class. First of all, it is important that teachers and students interact each other to improve the quality of the class. Students can get a real knowledge and understand the subject deeply through the conversation of the class with teachers. For example, Many schools in Asia still have the teaching style that only teacher explain the subject and students are just listening and writing, and they barely have chance to ask questions about the class or debate on some topics. However, in America, teachers and students always having a talking during the class and students are even oppose the idea of teachers. In this study environment, students can enlarge their point of view and study more effectively. On top of that, the class of teachers who have a lot of knowledge are not always attractive to students. What I mean is that, it is important to deliver the subjects for teachers and some of them actually know a lot but do not teach students effectively. Let me explain my own opinion. In my college, there is a famous professor, Professor. Lee, and I heard a lot about him that he is a top professor in my country due to his achievement in psychology, so I choose his psychology class. His class was so bored because he always using difficult words and I felt like just reading a research in my own. After took his class, I realized that teachers have more knowledge does not mean his class is easier to understand. It is more important for teachers to teach student understandable and interesting than research in their field themselves. To sum up, teachers interacting with students enhance the quality of the class and students feel more interesting. In this regard, I argue that teachers interact with students is more paramount than be experts in the subject they teach. |
