confidence, the ability to learn from failure, and time management, suited to the

After you listen: Discuss the question: Which do you think is more essential for
better learning - good teachers or good textbooks?
Textbooks are essential teaching and learning materials in any program and syllabus.
Having good textbooks is very important. Good textbooks provide students with
adequate knowledge, skills and practice. Good textbooks also guide students how to
learn and help them study effectively on their own
However, having good teachers may be more important than having good textbooks
because a good teacher can turn a poor quality textbook into an interesting one. In
fact, a good teacher can even replace the textbook, motivate students to learn, and
train them to use self-studying skills. Besides that, the teachers must take
responsibilities for the students’ learning.
