You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.

Write about the following topic:

Some people think that teachers should be responsible for teaching students to judge what is right and wrong so that they can behave well. Others say that teachers should only teach students academic subjects.  Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Write at least 250 words.

Sample Answer 1:

In the education field, teachers consistently play an essential role. Some people claim that teachers are only an occupation to teach students about knowledge and academic information. Others advocate that teachers should teach not only subjects but also disciplines and basic ethical judgments. In my own perspective, the age of students is the truly crucial indicator to determine the aspect of teacher’s role.

In kindergartens, children merely learn how to communicate with peers and how to be socialised. The purpose of teachers is aimed to assist children’s socialisation and their personality development. In this stage, teaching academic subjects is not the first priority of teachers. Instead, teachers are more likely to build up a role model for students so that kids can establish adequately ethical perspectives, well-socialised behaviour and correct judgmental foundation.

From primary schools to high schools, teachers, indeed, play a more complicated role in terms of teaching. Juveniles get easily influenced by external environment and other peers’ behaviour. As a result, teachers are expected to guide those students in correct life pathway as well as to teach them a wage diversity of knowledge for future career and study life. Among this period, teaching and guiding students are equally important for teachers.

After that, in university and higher education, most of the students are, comparing to previous stages, equivalently mature enough to take responsibility for their own behaviour. Therefore, there is no need for teachers and professors to teach those students how to judge right and wrong. Knowledge exchange is likely to be the major relation maker of the teachers and students at this stage.

In conclusion, undoubtedly, teachers take participant into student’s life. The role of teachers does strongly associate with the age of students.

Sample Answer 2:

There has recently been a debate regarding whether teachers are responsible or not for guiding the school learners what is correct and incorrect, while some people think that it is not included in teachers’ working criteria. In my point of view, teachers should teach the students in order to help them to improve in every way possible.

Firstly, some people think that teachers are responsible for teaching what is correct and incorrect because it might assist the learner to identify what should they behave in the society. For example, if a child does not know anything when they are working in the society, it would not help them to solve the problem. They might just continue with the false concept. Possibly this will lead to a conclusion that everyone working in their own way. If this exists in Hong Kong, there will be a huge argument every day non-stop as people think that their own idea is correct, but actually not.

However, some people believe that teachers should only teach things that are related to the school syllabus. It is because they think that the parents will teach their own child at home. They will tell the kids what should they do and it is parents’ responsibilities to guide their own child. Also, some parents think that teachers might teach bad things to their kids. For example, there are some teachers at the University of Hong Kong telling the students to occupy Central. This is extremely unacceptable. Due to this, parents only required the teachers to teach school-related stuff.

In my opinion, I agree with teachers only teaching school-based stuff would be a better option because for me personally, I do not listen to the teachers at all, I know that my parents will teach me how to behave and what I should do. For example, some teachers told me that I am doing something wrong, but still, I do not want to listen to them. As their words aren’t influential at all, it won’t make any impact on me.

To conclude, I think teachers should only focus on academic studies instead of teaching the learner about righteous and wrongness. Our parents will be responsible for that.

Sample Answer 3:

It is often argued that teachers should be accountable for their student’s good and bad conducts as they are responsible for teaching them the morality of their children. Others, on the other hand, opine that educators’ role should be limited to imparting academic (educational) curriculum among students. This essay will discuss both points of view and argue that instructors can share the responsibility for inculcating socially acceptable manners in students along with academic course training, followed by a reasoned conclusion.

Many support the teacher’s role in students’ behaviour modification. Firstly they think that students spend much more time with their educators in school than with their parents. So it is easy for the trainers to develop a good interpersonal relationship with students and, thereby, can have a great influence on their trainees. In addition, they can give moral lessons through moral classes. Moreover, most of the students find their teachers as their role model. So the students accept the instructions of their professors’ than anyone else.

Alternatively, others advocate that academic subjects must be the only priority for educators. They believe that this encourages teachers to concentrate only on course works and thereby could contribute to better academic achievements of the students. This is true in the case of pupils who follow the classes with great attentiveness. But this essay disagrees this view because it cannot bring maximum outcome from other students if they are not motivated to learn. So a teacher, who can impose good conduct in his students, who can divert his students from immoral behaviour, can expect the best possible result from his students.

In summary, although teachers’ primary role is guiding students in academic course work, their ultimate goal should be creating citizen with good conduct and better career prospectus.
