Dear Editor,<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I am writing to express my support for small-class teaching that has been adopted in some schools.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To begin with, small-class teaching can let teachers give more support and care to the students. Sometimes, teachers do not have enough time to answer the questions that are asked by the students. The teacher will care more about and support the students with lower ability first and will overlook the needs of other students. Small-class teaching can let the teachers have more time to take care of and support all students as there are fewer students. In addition, they can have more chances to answer the students’ questions. The students can learn the things more quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Furthermore, small-class teaching makes the teachers have less homework to <\/span>mark<\/span>. Then, teachers can spend more time to prepare for the lessons. The teacher<\/span>s<\/span> can also have more time to think of a better way for the students to learn. This can let the students understand the things better.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Besides, small-class teaching can enhance the relationships between students and teachers. The teachers can have more time to chat with the students. They can know the things about the students more. Moreover, they can understand more about students’ learning and think of some methods to help them to improve the result. So the students can have better results.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lastly, the small-class teaching can give the students a better learning environment. In a normal class size, there are many students in the classroom. The aisle between the desks is narrow. If it is a small class, the classroom will have a larger space. The aisle will not be so narrow. This can give the students a better learning environment.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Some people say that small-class teaching will <\/span>make students have<\/span> fewer chances to take part in discussions. It is absolutely wrong. Small-class teaching wil<\/span>l<\/span> also have twenty-five students a class. The students can also discuss with their groupmates. The chances for discussion will not decrease.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In conclusion, small-class teaching should be adopted in schools. It can give students a better learning environment and teacher<\/span>s<\/span> can have more time to take care of the students. It is good for both teachers and students.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Yours faithfully,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
