"For Once,Blame the Students"

In Patrick Welsh article ‘For Once, Blame the Students,” he argued that emigrated students do better than American students in USA class. First, the author said there is some teachers have problem with their health and some of them poor and the other thing that some students didn’t like their textbook. Next, he said the important thing for American students to get good grade and the teachers support them to get good grade also their parents. He also said the school helps students get lesser education. Walsh agrees with rising admission standards to improve students’ performance. He claims that parents have to set up students to help them do better in their class. He said the education in USA needs to become better.

It is clear from Welsh’s article that there are many reasons why American students don’t do well in their school. I agree with the author’s completely. Specifically, I agree that American students have to be more active in their class and more excited in their studying. And that their parents they have to help them but I think that their teachers can improve their ambition.

To begin with, the American students have to be more active in their class such as their interesting idea to be success in their class. They have to arrange their schedule and make division for time. They have to make limit for sleeping, playing and studying because they have to change their humor or their mood to be able to do all they want during the day. The way of teaching can help student to active in class it’s depend on teacher.

Next, I think that parents have to help their child . The parents have to support them if they have any problem. They can help them when they sick or when they have problem in study. Also they have to ask the incessantly about their education, economic state and they have to know about their friends. Either the parents have to make connect with their child to help them. The parents must divide their time to give their child part of the time to talk with them and give them some of their experience from the life to learn from their wrong and select right ways to be more successful.

Finally, the teachers have to make special case to improve the student’s ambition because they can have positive or negative effect on them. The teachers have experience in their life ,and they can make students successful in their life and make plan for future. The teachers experience will make students recognize the good and bad thing. They can improve their thinking from worse to better by their experience. Therefore, The teachers have to make the students to plan for their future because when they have plan they will do possible to confidence them hobbies and their ambition.

In conclusion, the teachers have to improve student’s ambition to be success in their life. Also their parents they have to support them if they need any help such as studying or economic state. It’s important for parents to talk with their child and help them if they need help. The American students have to work hard and do the best if they want success in their life. Every student has to plan for the future and if he or she doesn’t have one the teacher and his or her parents can help them to plan for it. The students have to divide their time to do all the work during the day.
