  1. We read 'Teacher Are Key for Students'last week.It mentions that why do not students like schools and student's other problems.I think teachers are important for students because they teach to students everything and they tell them that how they treat to people in life.Although students usually hate school.Maybe they are bored and they are afraid of studying lessons.It is normal conditions.If a teacher can tell enjoyable lesson,student like the lessons and school and this problem was solved.Second problem is about to forgeting memories.If students care the subject,they protect the knowledges and they prevent the forgeting memories.It can change from environment to environment.

  3. First off all, the topic of this week is very interesting in contrast to last week's. I have learned a lot of information from the text and the speeches before reading the text. Agree with author because every student has a different learning style. Therefore, teachers should challenge each student especially in primary schools. I believe that if the teacher likes and wants to teach, there is no reason not to learn for students. However,I believe each of us has different styles,according to the passage there is no such a thing. People have different interests,abilities.... For example, I'm interested in maths and I can study and learn new things about maths everyday. As a result, the passage is very instructive and useful the author's point is correct and passage reminded me of importance of teachers.

  4. I like this passage, author connects everything well.Why don't students like school, relationship between the memory and consideration, how we learn, but there are some points which I disagree with him/ her.Author says intelligence can be improved.Intelligence was given when we was born.The things that author said are about improving our learning style.Each intelligent person is a good learner, but each good learner is not smart.Also, watching informative documentaries and reading books or newspapers just make us knowledgeable.For sure environment affects our intellignece, but it is too few.Furthermore, as it is understand from the title author thinks that teachers are important during the learning.I think there is only one thing affects our learning; curiosity, unless I am curious about something even the best teacher will not teach me something. On the other hand, it is said that "curiosity killed the cat." Apart from these I think the passage was enjoable first time, even me like it.

  5. We read text about Teachers are key for students last week. My opinion of this reading text is very good. because there are many benefit information for us and ıt mention a big problem for students in their education life. I agree with author, Teachers are key for students because students either like or dislike school, ıt depends on teacher
    For example ı haven't gone to school two weeks in primary school to dislike my teacher. Also, people have different ways of learning the same material or learning styles, The government should arrange education system as these reason....

  6. This week our topic was "Teachers are Key for Students". My opinion of this reading text is so good. The author managed to keep me interested in the text because this text is both short and didactic. I have learned many things from this text. I think the author is really trying to say teachers are important for students. I believe in the variety in students' learning styles. For example, my learning style is visual, but my friend's learning style is auditory. I think about the role of the teachers on students’ lives that teachers are sample people for students. If teachers are good, students are so good. If teacher behaves so badly to students, students don't like teacher. Thus, students can't learn anything.
