Importance of Great Teachers

Bill Cosby showed up to Booker T. Washington's Nathan E. Harris Field house late in September to talk to some students about the importance of education.  He spoke about how important teachers and administrators are to every community (Plummer 4).  Teachers have a very important job, not only to teach students but also to make sure students have goals and ambitions.  Teachers need to be motivators to their students, giving them all the tools they need to succeed.
Cosby also talked about how we can not blame the decline of want in eduction in the children, but it is the community around them that is the cause (Plummer 6).  It is not the children themselves that are to blame, but everything that goes on around them.  Their community is a very big influence on all the decisions they make and how they act.  The children of this generation are different from the past but its because of everything that goes on around them.  Children need good teachers that keep them motivated to try hard in school and strive to succeed in whatever they want to do.  With out these types of teachers, eduction will continue to decline in future generations as well.
