I prefer my teachers to talk face-to-face with me rather than talk with my parents, especially when I have done something wrong. If he tells my parents about this, I will be punished by them. Besides, its a waste of time or energy for the teachers to visit my home since both the teachers and my parents are very busy. Our daily life will be disturbed. Good teachers should also be good friends. They can give us good advice and help us. They should often encourage us. So we will try to do better in our studies and work.
