IELTS Writing task 2

Ques: Parents are the best teachers for the children. Do you agree or disagree with the statement?

Answer:

Teachers are the best friends, guides and a philosopher. They become role models for some of the students in formal educations. whereas family is a group of kids and kins living together and supporting each other in any situation be it be good or bad, they are always there for each other socially, morally and financially.

I agree with the statement that the parents are the best motivators and mentors for the children. It is because a child is more close to the parents for longer period. With this parents can understand their behavior and nature in a better manner than those of teachers. It is one on one interaction of informal education, child learns much by observing the behavior of the parents and unconsciously the trades are carried away.

Expanding the statement, to teach a child it is important to understand the genetic trades. With this handling becomes easy, moreover parents can teach moral and ethical values which makes the child practical and boldly wise. Both polishing formal and informal are required to groom the personality of the child.Parents make so many sacrifices for us just for our better life and make compromises with their life and nothing in the whole universe can be compared with their sacrifice. For example if a student is not able to pay is tuition fee and is warned to come to school without the fees then their so called teachers will not bother for them, parents will adjust their budget and find any way to pay their child's fees so the child future is saved. Thus parents are there for their children no matter how worse is the situation.

To summarize, children at a growing stage are very insecure, immature and inexperienced. They definitely require protection from the outside world by the teachers and parents. Teachers enhance the knowledge, horizon and the child's view of life but the very basic foundation and ground manners are taught by the parents. According to my opinion a child gets best formal education from teachers where he learns discipline and informal education like values from the parents.
