Individuals firmly believe that teachers play an essential role in students’ education success, while others think that responsibility of students are more important.
On the one hand, many people, especially parents, believe that teachers have a significant influence on students’ educational success. I partially agree with this statement, because sometimes a teacher is the main reason how children feel about the school subject. If a teacher has an issue with anger or even can’t explain topic clearly, children may feel uncomfortable and gradually start avoiding this subject. But the school mission is just to make students disciplines and responsibility for their future achievements. In my experience, i used to have such a bad teachers, whose methodology didn’t work for me, but i didn’t quit learning of those subjects, because i’m the master of my own destiny.
On the other hand, students should make an effort for their future goals. Even if a teacher is the best possible teacher, students will not be able to achieve academic success unless they start making an effort themselves and put as much effort as possible into their studies. A teacher can only explain the topic and help you understand it, but after that, it is entirely your own decision whether to study the subject in greater depth or not. From what i have observed, a lot of people who studied online, so they are independent from school and teachers, got the highest score on exam, because of their self-discipline.
Overall, i tend to believe that teachers have an important role in students education, but not as important as pupils’ attitude. For personal growth all individuals should make an effort and focus on their goals. Students must ultimately rely on their own efforts
