Reflection # 9

Comparing teachers from Ancient Egyptian to teachers now in day's I'd have to say there is a huge difference between both. In Ancient Egypt going to school was a huge privilege. Not everybody had the same opportunities others had. Mostly wealthy kids went to school, but children with less fortunate families couldn't even attend, because they didn't have the time or money to do so. Teachers were literally paid out of tuition from their won students. On the other hand, now in days I believe students have a bigger opportunity in receiving a formal education. We've build much more school's now than they ever had in Ancient Egypt. Also, our teachers get paid a respectable amount of money from the government, maybe not as much as they should, but it's a lot better than receiving money from your own students.

Furthermore, first schools also had this rule that teachers would discipline their students with whips if they were to misbehave. I believe if teachers were to do that now they would be on a search for a very good lawyer. Now we have laws that prevent teachers from using violent actions towards students.

Moreover, education in Ancient Egypt had no time length for an education. People finished before others, others would just start working in their parent's profession, and some would just get bumped up from experience. Education didn't have a strong ground set, like we have today. Teachers now in days have more respect and have a stronger impact in student's life, unlike Ancient Egypt. Parents played a bigger role during those times. They would decide and plan their future up for them, teach those morals, religion, and discipline.

Therefore, throughout time teachers have gained their respect by caring and putting more hard work and effort into their profession. Now teachers are one of the influences that guide you into the inner future. And prepares you for what you're going to deal with in college and so on. Teachers have come a long way, their basically consider the rock of your education learning.
