雅思大作文范文:
People’s views on the size of a class vary. Whilesome people hold that a small class is better forlearning, there are others who argue that a big oneis better. On a personal note, I am convinced that each size of classes has its merits anddemerits and what really counts is the teacher. That is to say, if the teacher is good, then classsizes would be no big deal.
In the first place, both small and big classes have their own advantages and disadvantages.Let’s take a small class for example. With a small number of students in one class, theclassroom atmosphere would be relatively quiet and, therefore, it would be possible forstudents to concentrate on their learning. This can be easily understood, for, after all, thenoise made by 10 or 20 people is much lower than that made by 100 or even 200 people! Also,with fewer students, the teacher would find it much easier to manipulate the class, that is, tohave the whole class under complete control. If there are too many students, the teacherwould be at a loss as to what to do in that controlling the situation itself would be challengingenough. Besides, in a small class, the students could have more interactive activities with theteacher and the teacher can give each student whatever instructions or help that he or sheneeds. When the number of students in a class is much too big, one-to-one or one-to-severaltutoring is simply impossible. However, this is not to say that a small class is all good and a bigone is all bad. In fact, as researches show, a small class is more likely to give rise to tirednessand boredom, which hinders learning. In this respect, a big class prevails as it places higherpressure on the teacher, thus compelling him or her to be more energetic and morehumorous so as to create a more lively learning atmosphere and, therefore, having thestudents’ attention. Who will benefit from all these? The students! Of course! Moreover, in abig class, the students could get to know more people, thereby making more friends as theyhave more choices. And making friends itself is meaningful in that it makes the class a moreattractive place and in the long run, this makes for students’ learning.
In the second place, we must acknowledge the very fact that no matter how small or big aclass is, it is simply not that important as the teacher. Even in a class where there is only onestudent, if the teacher proves to be inefficient, not knowing how to teach at all, it would beimpossible for the students to listen attentively, so there would be no way for them to reallylearn anything. Quite the opposite, if the teacher is good, then no matter how many studentsthere are in one class, say, 1,000 of them, the teacher would still be able to teachenthusiastically and the students listen enjoyably, and the learning effect would be beyondany doubt. I had the experience of sitting in a 500-student classroom. The teacher was warmlyreceived by the students and so we all learned happily. Moreover, just for the sake of securing aseat close to the teacher, many students would go to the classroom 1 hour earlier. This wellconfirmed the point that the teacher is what really counts.
From the above discussion, we can safely come to the conclusion that the size of a classdoes not have much influence on the students’ learning effect. What is really more crucial inthis issue is the quality of the teacher.
