42. Does the educational success of a student depend on the teacher or the 
attitude? 
 
Discuss both sides and give an opinion. 
  
Teaching is considered as a very noble profession because teachers play a huge role in 
everybody’s life. To which, it is believed by some people that the effectiveness of study depends 
on the quality of teaching while others believe that it is the perspective of students that matter the 
most. In my opinion, neither of them alone is efficient, it requires equal and active involvement 
from both student and teacher to justify the quality of education and educational success.  
  
To begin with, a good teacher always has a great impact on their students. As a student, people 
learn very important things about life from their teachers, not only the syllabus but also about the 
attitude towards life. Moreover, a better teacher has the power to plant seeds of curiosity, which 
is one of the crucial attributes that build the eagerness to learn something new and set the course 
of their lives. For example, IITs and IIMs are widely popular because of its world-class 
professors. But if teachers are not at teaching, it will affect children so deeply that they lose 
interest in those subjects for the lifetime. Thus, the importance of a standard teacher is crystal 
clear.
