TOEFL essay sample: Parents are the best teachers... Tue May 30, 2006 10:21 am  TOEFL essay sample: Parents are the best teachers...
 

Hello,

could you guys please correct my toefl essay?
thanks!

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
Parents are the best teachers.
Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
--------------------------------
Nowadays a good education is one of the most imporant factors for anyoe who wants to
successfully handle all the competitions occuring in once lifetime. In this essay i want
to explain why i think parents are the best teachers among all educators.

Children spend the most of their time during the childhood with their parents. Thus
parents can influence and teach their children like no other person can do. When children join
the school they already have received their basic knowledge and the teachers at school have to
put their expertise upon this basic knowledge.

Since children spend so much time with their children and their naturally given respect for
their parents they will listen carefully to their parents advices. Usually no other person will
ever be able to get a similar level of authority like parents have.

Probably the most important point that makes parents the best teachers is their love to the children.
This love will lead to a great devotion while they teach their children making them the most
patient teacher one can imagine.

Because of all these points i think parents are the best teachers and can even teach their
children better than any professional educator with a lot of expertise.
