merit-pay-based system

The lecturer is mainly discussing the merit-pay-based system to pay teachers their salaries. He says that the theory stated in the passage was very different and somewhat inaccurate when compared to what happened for real in reality.

First of all, the lecturer thinks that the merit-pay-based system will control many of the teachers. Also maybe someone will ignore good teachers and instead to pay raises to his (1) their friends so the system will not fair. In contrast, the reading passage believes that this is a very fair way of paying teachers. So, the lecturer totally disagrees with the point being made in the reading.

Secondly, the lecturer discusses that the teachers may try harder to develope their teaching methods, but their maybe maybe they won’t share their good teaching methods to with other teachers just because they want more money. This isn’t what education should be about.

Finally, this way of paying teachers will be negetive to students. A Teacher will be not not be likely not to give attention to the low grade students, and just care about the good students.

In conclusion, the points made in the lecture contradict the reading.

(1) 'his friends' suggests that only men will make the decisions to pay raises.  Using 'their' makes the sentence gender neutral.  

Very well done!
