LETTER TO A TEACHER - Letter / Essay - Students of Barbiana - Notes - SUMMARY


 LETTER TO A TEACHER  
                                                                          --- Students of Barbiana

            “Letter to a Teacher” is a complaint in the form of a letter addressed to an imaginary teacher. This was originally written by students of the School of Barbiana. 
            The students complain that the teacher does not remember the students or their names. She fails to take their needs into consideration. She successfully failed them into fields and factories.  
         The teacher tries to identify their mistakes but never tries to correct them.  She always tries to control them as if they were thieves.  She lacks practical experience.  She does not have the knowledge of human life or the value of relationship.  Her teaching is totally pedantic and bookish, without touching the social realities.  Her students prove better than her in many aspects. Through the letter, the teacher’s character is marked by lack of practical outlook and concern for the student.
