TOEFL® essay: nowadays, what is the role of a teacher?

There is no doubt that throughout history there have been a lot of autodidact inventors; names like Albert Einstein, Thomas Eddison are just some examples that come to my mind; people who without having gone to school reached their goals and found what they were looking for and succeded; at the same time the are many people who succeed without going to school; in spite of this fact, nobody can deny that the more you go to school and have good teachers the more probability you have to suceed in your life; also, the necessity of a teacher varies a lot depending on your age.

When you are a child, nothing can subsitute the guidance and education given by a professional teacher; these people know how to guide children and how to make them gain confidence in their own; in my case, teachers I daily most remember are the ones I had when I was a child, those who taught me how to behave, what was good and bad, those who really shaped my personality; at the same time, when you are a child your parents can act sometimes as teachers and this is crucial for the proper education of a child; while you grow up, a teacher is also needed as they will give you all the knowledge you need in order to be prepared for the future; a teacher will tell you what degree can fit more with your aptitudes, how you can get the best of you;

On the other hand, when you are an adult, you will be pushed to study in order to keep you updated in your profession; of course you could study on your own but it is also recommended that you apply to an university and study for example a master where you will find professors well prepared to teach you what you need to face new challenges; nowadays, with internet and all kind of new technologies, the role of teachers have been changing as you do not need to go a class anymore so you do not listen to a professor's lecture; in these cases professors act more like advisors, most of the time online.

To sum up, being taught by teachers is so important if you want to guarantee yourself a proper education; I strongly believe that sucsessful countries rely on a proper and efficient education system; it is also true that the role of a teachers varies depending on your age so that the younger you are the more you need a teacher; they are in charge of setting the foundations for the future.
