Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Teachers should be paid according to how much their students learn. Give specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
Teachers are the people who are responsible to build the channels between knowledge and students. Though teachers are always expected to teach the students as much as possible, and there should be economic benefits to stimulate the teachers to finish their job better, I still strongly oppose the opinion that teachers should be paid according to how much their students learn.
First of all, it is hard to calculate how much knowledge that the student have learned. The education in most of the schools involves in many different disciplines, such as mathematics, music, politics, all of which are valuable for students to learn as branches of human civilization. Can we say that the teachers teaching economics should earn better money than those who are teaching biography, because there is a growing liking to economic science in this modern society? Of course not. In addition, the unaccountable character of the knowledge makes it impossible to measure one teacher’s accomplishment according to how much his or her students learn.
Equally important, paying teacher according to how much their students learn will bring an unfair calculation system among teachers. As is universally known, in most of the cases, teachers' efforts are not the only important role in determining the study results of their students, and it is not surprising that good teachers not always cultivate excellent students. If the other elements, such as the limits of the students' talents, the shortage of the facilities, are excluded from the calculation system, it will be unfair for the teachers.
A subtler but as serious aspect is, paying teachers according to how much the students learn is bound to ruin the relationship between teachers and students. As the standard established, some teachers will be drew by economic profits to force their students to learn too many things, which may be too heavy a burden for the students to bear. At the same time, students lose some things of good value when the teachers focus only on their academic results.
In conclusion, I strongly oppose the point that teachers should be paid according to how much their students learn. To put my opinion in a more direct way, determining the teachers' earning by calculating how much the students learn is unpractical and unfair for the teachers. What is more, it may distort the good relationship between the two parties.
