　　Sample Essay

　　>Being an effective teacher is about having knowledge from training and experience from practice.  While teaching capabilities can be developed with experience, it is also important that you should learn professional skills through special training in the first place.  In general, school children are expected to benefit from those teachers who have enough pre-job training as well as on-job practice.

　　On the one hand, some people say that an excellent teacher ought to be formally trained.  Based on this view, to be successful in the teaching career, it is necessary to go through a series of training sessions for obtaining sufficient knowledge related to teaching strategy and psychology² that lead to a satisfactory job.  For example, the making of a teacher is not very unlike the making of a lawyer.  Just as a qualified³ lawyer should require a great deal of information about laws, so should a qualified teacher know much about teaching methods.  That is to say, training can make a difference in the teaching work.  This is probably why in many countries exist a range of Teachers' Colleges or Normal Universities.

　　On the other hand, others believe that a great teacher is born rather than trained, as if being independent of experience.  According to this opinion, even though pre-job training is useful to some extent, what matters seems to be that kind of passion which is similar to natural experience. So much so, teaching capabilities are not only powered by career passion but also grow along with experience.  Hence, there may be no absolute need to acquire sufficient teaching techniques beforehand.  In short, you can either do with or do without training to become an outstanding teacher.

　　On the whole, it is debatable whether you think that a good teacher should acquire enough training or that teaching capabilites can be developed with experience.  There is no easy answer to this question.  The answer depends on who you ask, of course.
