It was the Best of Learning, it was the Worst of Learning


My school’s math and economics requirements made me tremble, but I had teachers that taught me methods of learning and note taking that compensated for my lack of ability and allowed for my success.               
            Those teachers also could easily identify the area to the students, as well. This sets the class room experience apart from others because a student feels like the subject is worth studying and it is more memorable because they have a concrete example they can relate to. Skilled teachers make the lesson comprehendible, but truly knowledgeable teachers engage the student, making the lesson invaluable.

            Most teachers strive for the success of their students, but some teachers lack basic skills that allow students to attain such. When a class revolves around reading off of power point slides, talking at me, not to me, and not engaging me at all, the chance of truly learning is lost to boredom.
Curriculums are demanding, however, students will not be successful unless they comprehend the basics before advancing. Thus, teachers should not rush into complex materials before ensuring they have covered the basics. Not taking time to adequately teach material and answer questions puts a damper on the learning experience.
