The Importance Of Teacher Student Relationship In Education

Teaching is 24/7, 365 day professions were teachers prepare to educate and help student to proceed in life. However, there are some teachers who take the 24/7 and 365-day work schedule in a different manner.

When that relationship is denigrated it causes a student to question their ethical beliefs. Even if a teacher is found guilty there is no justice for a student that has been abused mentally and or physically. The only thing that society benefits from is learning that a teacher has no moral value and is hopefully removed from their profession.
