I need the teacher

Technology also has affected teaching environment in many technical way. There are students taking exam through online, and students submitting their work through emails. Not only these technology provided convenience to teacher, students can now spend less amount of time to look for answers. But in the other hand, students started to have less amount of time to spend with professors in person.


I remember one scene from my favorite comic book in my youth time; it was a scene where students take their everyday school lecture from their home through online. Although this technology proves to be a time saving, I do believe that school doesn’t only educate the lecture contents. I do interact with my fellow school mates, finds other useful information, and gets to seek for more opportunity to learn. I personally believe that the place of work, school, or others places don’t always deliver its basic principals. There are many exciting and meaningful experience of learning behind everything.


In conclusion, students doesn’t always see teacher as person who only teaches textbook contents. They’re the people who accelerate our passion of learning, guides our research, and sometimes as a life coach.

It's interesting that you used the term "life coach." I see your point, teachers are more than just lecturers.
