Agree/disagree Students, not teachers or administrators, should be in control of their own education It is important to know what to study and which area is the best, but should students decide by their own? In my opinion, students should let teachers and administrators do it. Those professionals are doing that job for a long time thus, they know what is best. The first reason that I disagree to let students be in control of their own studies is that students need to learn first. A student do not know what he need to learn, therefore it is not possible to build his own schedule. Knowing the content of each subject is important to build a educational schedule and the best people to do that is the teacher. Each teacher of each subject may gather together and discuss about the best way to teach. Another reason is that teachers and administrators know what they are doing. A college degree is necessary in order to become a teacher or school administrator. Consenquently they must have had pedagogical classes, and learned how to apply inside the classroom. It is their job, so they are more capable than a student. Task 2 writing section of toefl test: Finally, students should concentrate in their studies. To build a educational program and to find everything you need to learn, takes a long time. Specially, if they do not know where to start. In that way, students will waste their time to search and build their own schedule while they could just let a teacher do it and concentrate in their role; learning. Even if they are unhappy with the way regular schools control every content, maybe choosing another school or institutions that let you build your classes, will be a good alternative. Considering all those points, I conclude that even if students want to be free to control their own students they should ask a professional to that in their place. By doing so, they will do a good and focused learning process.
