II.     Palmer writes, “Good teaching is an act of hospitality toward the young, and hospitality is always an act that benefits the host even more than the guest” (p. 50). In what specific ways do you think a teacher has to be hospitable to students? In what ways do they treat them as unwelcome guests? How do teachers benefit from practicing hospitality toward students?


The school is the second house for our students, because they spend a lot of time there, they share their ideas, knowledge, etc, we as teachers must prepare a good environment for them , where they may feel comfortable at the moment to learn, for getting this point, teachers must have a good relationship with their students, it doesn’t mean that we have to be their friends, but we may listen to them, we can try to understand them, and help them in this process. We need to remind that we are their examples into the classroom and outside as a result teachers must have  a good behavior . In some cases we can’t establish a good communication with our students, so we may have some problems with them, maybe they don’t respect to us into the classroom, or they don’t want to do their best, and prefer to make noisy in this cases we can feel uncomfortable but it doesn’t mean that we discriminate this type of students, we have to look for tools to solve the problem, and they have to feel good in our classes and learn about their mistakes. There are some benefits practicing hospitality toward students, because of this way our students learn in a better way, they are able to develop their skills in a good environment where they can express their ideas and feel that they are important in the class, if we do our best we will be an effective teacher.
