INTRO
Teachers everywhere have many different strategies and
teaching methods that work for them and their students. Some teachers bring a
very strong sense of their own personalities and experiences into the
classroom, while others are faced with the complete unknown when hired to
teach. Their strengths and weaknesses can be documented to help others to reach
the goal of teaching successfully through trial and error and sharing these
experiences. All in all, teachers are
different across the world. Pointing out the similarities and differences over
time, location, and many other factors will put into perspective the types of
teachers who have dedicated their career to making students academic lives better.
I will build my body paragraphs from these different topics. I think 1200-1500 words will be sufficient for me to do compare/contrast paragraphs for some of these.
possible topics for body paragraphs:
teacher's personal traits; appearance, gender, where they come from, alienation, culture shock, private lives (love life, are they happy?)
school traits; location, time period, students attitudes, funding, teachers attitudes, school overview
effectiveness of teachers; roles they play, students grades, control of the classroom, lesson plans, field trips, are students responsive?
O.k., lots of great ideas! Remember that your thesis statement needs to state which role that teachers play that you'll be focusing your discussion of the two teacher you choose.
