Without future knowledge how will students proceed to the next step; for example, college? Everything we learn in school helps us by preparing us for the next challenging step. If our minds aren’t challenged then we won’t know how to get our minds thinking constructively. If college isn’t student’s goals then teachers can help them want to go to college. If they don’t want to further their education then prepare them for real world issues. “Because once they know they are a real part of this world and can effect change, there’s no telling what kind of influence they can have on the world around them”. (Duffy) An individual is going to find what they do best and take it into effect with the world around them. When in doubt a teacher should teach real world issues to teach students how life would be if you don’t have an education.

             A teacher can’t make you successful but the material can. Without teachers helping us succeed, who will? Our parents play a huge role in raising us but what about the children who don’t have caring parents? It’s important that teachers play a parents role in education. It’s important that teachers offer tutoring or after school office hours because some students need extra help understanding. “A new evaluation by that city’s school system shows that students who completed their after school programs got bigger test score increases in both math and reading than non-tutored students did”. (Viadero)With my personal experience I’ll say it’s highly important for after school help because my parents would be at work and nobody was there to help with my homework. For me tutoring helped a lot because my grades were rising. Students who go to tutoring every other day or when they’re scheduled shows that they have responsibility for their grade.  Without responsibly student will always blame the teacher for not teaching them properly.

            It’s very important that kids have someone to look up to because without that they would have no sense of direction to follow. By teachers being enthusiastic and full of energy at school is when the students are going to feel the same vibe. Having fun while teaching keeps students interacting with the class and yourself as a teacher. When students have that teacher that makes them feel comfortable in class they will be more open to their educational needs. For example, a student will go to a teacher for help if they explain the material in a way a student can relate to. If we don’t have teachers as role models then how significant does that make their job? Not so much important because teachers need to be there to inspire young learning minds. Be the person students what to look up to, not just as a person who grades papers. When a teacher comes into a classroom excited and joyful, 90% of the students are going to feel the same exact way. By coming in with spirit sets a mood for the classroom which helps everybody learn at a fun way. It’s most important that we teach respect starting from kindergarten. When they start to learn how to have respect for adults, it will never become a problem in the future.

Sir Ken Robinson: Bring on the learning revolution! - Response

I love how he engages the audience by making them laugh by real world situations. People need to be pushed to wan to get their education, like he said be challenged. By making the generation smart and successful tells people that we have the kind of mind to run the country sufficiently. We now take time for granted, I do myself. I always count on my phone to tell me the time instead of having a clock like the old times. An interesting quote he said was " College starts in kindergarten" That was really interesting because it doesn't. Why should kindergarten be so competitive?  I love how he makes life situations a joke because he doesn't agree. I agree that every one has their own talent that pertains to them selves. He's an amazing speaker, I enjoyed listening to him and watching.

            “A Passionate Teacher: Teacher Commitment and Dedication to student learning”, by Cagri Tugrul Mart is the article I did my comparison to. This article connects to my writing assignment 100% by showing us how teachers are role models and prepare us for future education/ life. Teachers spend months and years with your child, wouldn’t you want that teacher to be the best influence on your child? If I send my child to school every day I want to know that they’re the best hands. When your child is around someone all the time, they start to develop the same habits. Every parent wants their child to have a healthy education. “Passionate teachers know that is their role to encourage students for an active learning and concern themselves with promoting students intellectual and moral development” (Mart 438) Passionate teachers love doing their job and love to pass it on. Parents depend on that teacher to give their all and prepare them for what they need to know. If you a great teacher you want the class to look up to you. Make them feel comfortable and allow them to trust you at what you’re doing. You should want to be that role model teacher so when the students look back they can say “He/She was my favorite teacher”. We are around teachers from pre-school till grad school. Each and every taught us something new that will lead us into the next step. “There are strong empirical grounds for believing that teachers can and do make a difference and that consistent high quality teaching, supported by strategic professional development, can and does deliver dramatic improvements in student learning “. (Mart 438) Teachers have a huge impact on how students become in the real world. They can either brake them or make them. Some teachers put an extensive amount of work into students; on the other hand, you have teachers who say “You should have been paying attention” The way that you keep focusing is with different tactics; for example, mini learning games. Games that make their mind think and they wouldn’t even know it. They also learn from the various activities, in return they would receive a free homework pass for winning the game. That also motivates other students by encouraging them to win.
