COMMUNICATION: THE PERFECT TOOL IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TEACHERS AND STUDENTS

Maybe this phrase could be familiar to you: “I cannot stand an unfair teacher”. No doubt you feel the same way. Many reasons explain why sometimes students cannot get along with teachers. Students say that their teachers have a sort or favoritism. Some youths are upset when they get low grades for what they feel is high-grade work. When teachers demand of us effort, enthusiasm and responsibility; we cannot always fulfill their expectations.

However, teachers are far from being infallible. They have their share of quirks, problems and prejudices. Even teachers stumble many times, we are not perfect. As human beings we tend to make mistakes and we cannot avoid them. One of these common mistakes is the special favor conferred to teacher’s pet. In the classroom few students have these kinds of privileges. Others get angry when special attention or preferential treatment is given to the teacher’s pets.
On the other hand, there is a question which can open all our doubts about this particular preference with some students. Would a teacher pay more attention on the student who studies hard or treats him or her with respect? True, it may gall us when we see these ‘special students’ get more attention than us. Besides, it may be a good idea to take advantage of time in order to be a bit more diligent by ourselves. Don’t be jealous or upset if some diligent student is the teacher’s pet!
In some cases, teachers take the best of the best from us because they want to improve our creativity, ability and knowledge. But sometimes we are so blind. We do not want to see their preoccupations. Students try to make the situation worse when they begin a war with their teachers.

Since I was in high school some of my classmates used to make jokes about our teachers. They did it again, again, again…At the end our teachers snapped. Now then, students criticize teachers, but they are not exact in their argumentation. They exaggerate a bad behavior which maybe does not fit into teachers. Some of them say: “that teacher is hateful, strict and bored”, but many times students are responsible of the war in the classroom. In conclusion, the hostile teacher is often molded by his students.

Nevertheless, if we witness student’s cruelty, do not be surprise to harvest a hostile teacher. We have to keep always in our mind the golden rule which is written in the Bible: “All the things, therefore, wish to be done to you, have to be wished, likewise to others”. We should refuse to participate in classroom pranks. We have to be attentive to what the teacher says. We also must be cooperative. Perhaps in time, he will feel a little less hostile, at least toward his or her students.

I took into account these Bible’s words, and I got as a result a good relationship with my teachers. A good communication can make of our classroom a pleasant environment. If you do not have a good relationship with your teacher, you have to follow these practical advices. First of all, try not to give your teacher a cause of complaint. In fact, try to be friendly. Maybe your persistent politeness may change his opinion of you.
Finally, you and your teachers can enjoy a good relationship if there is respect between each other. You cannot be an immature person who is always acting in a bad way. But if it is not possible, take for sure that there would be trouble.
