The 2023-2024 school year has passed halfway, many teachers have been disciplined for inappropriate behavior in the teaching environment, violating teachers' ethics, so why are teachers still making the same mistake? Teacher Ngo Van Trung in Ba Ria - Vung Tau said that the reason that many people may cite is that teachers lack handling skills, get angry... But personally, I think that it is because many teachers still misunderstand power. For example, the case of a student kneeling and crying in front of the classroom door at Da Phuc High School (Soc Son,
Hanoi ) was recently reported by the press. What kind of teacher would grab the student by the collar and drag him? Not to mention, the reason why the incident happened had nothing to do with her expertise. [caption id="attachment_604683" align="alignnone" width="768"]
Students are empowered to speak up, reflect, and express their opinions on information and
educational events at school.[/caption] In reality, how can a homeroom teacher have the right to threaten and criticize students for not doing what she wants when ordering a birthday cake at a facility she designated? No one can accept a teacher like this, who is also a homeroom teacher, teaches civic education, and is assigned to do school counseling work. I also don't know what she will teach students with such behavior? In today's schools, threatening to lower a student's conduct grade is the most commonly used form of discipline by homeroom teachers in particular and teachers in general. There are all kinds of activities for teachers to threaten students to lower their conduct grade: not going to work, not participating in painting activities, not participating in competitions... In reality, do homeroom teachers dare to lower a student's conduct grade? Yes, but very little, most of the good and fair conduct rates have been within the target since the beginning of the year. In my opinion, using the authority of a teacher to threaten students is something teachers should not do. Teachers must know that threatening students is also a form of putting pressure on students, not to mention school violence. Therefore, teachers must know how to change themselves, do not give themselves the authority to intimidate students. The role and position of teachers in the past was exclusive, teachers are knowledge, teachers have the right to impart knowledge to students, so in folklore there are sayings that everyone knows by heart: "Without a teacher, you will not succeed", "One word is also a teacher, half a word is also a teacher"... When they are successful, people also remind each other: "Ten years of studying and studying, when you have a step in your career, do not forget the teacher's favor". Society has changed, the role and position of teachers have also changed, teachers must also change themselves. Teachers are no longer in the exclusive position of imparting knowledge, students can now learn from many different sources, acquire knowledge in many different forms, students' knowledge can be more than that of teachers.

Instead of threatening and scolding, teachers need to listen, share and understand the students' voices. This is an important information channel for education to progress/[/caption] The author gives an example from himself, although he has taught English for more than twenty years, he has not been able to get an IELTS 7.0 certificate, while many students have surpassed his dream. So where do the author's students study? Actually, not only English, all other subjects can be studied on the Internet, teachers are only guides, orienters, and builders of basic knowledge. Our country has a tradition of respecting teachers and valuing education, so that students can respect them, today teachers must take the initiative to respect themselves first. Teachers must know how to control their emotions, say good things, and do good deeds. Students, even though they are young, know everything. If teachers' behavior is exemplary, students will be convinced and follow their words, even without being threatened with a demotion. To make students obey and love them, teachers must be good friends with their students, and inspire their interest in learning, instead of using authority and threats. Each student is an individual, and there is no uniformity in personality. Therefore, teachers will encounter many undesirable reactions when practicing their profession. To achieve the best educational results, they must first respect their students.
