School is an important stage for every individual. It is during this period that children become familiar with spiritual values ​​and acquire life guidelines. Each teacher always influences a teenager’s worldview in his own way, so the result of the influence is different for everyone.

• V. Rasputin, “French Lessons”. Lydia Mikhailovna became for the poor eleven-year-old boy the embodiment of kindness and selflessness. She taught him the most valuable lessons - humanity. The student tried to get money for food by any means, so he got involved in card games for money. Since the proud hero never accepted help from the teacher (she offered him help), she found another way out of the situation. Lidia Mikhailovna began to play gambling with him and deliberately lost in order to somehow help. Soon the school director found out about her “crime” and the woman was fired. However, even from a distance, she supported the boy - she sent him anonymous parcels with apples. Lydia Mikhailovna taught the hero the most important thing in life - humanity.
• V. Bykov, “Obelisk”. Moroz became a role model for his students. He combined the best traits of human character - kindness, mercy, courage, and a sense of responsibility for his followers. Even during the war years, he continued to diligently teach children, he wanted to raise them “not to be obedient crammen, but, above all, to be people.” One day, Frost bought new shoes for the little twin girls so that their mother would let them go to study when it got cold outside. For the sake of his students, he was ready to do anything. Even to death. To save at least one of the six children captured by the Germans, he sacrificed his life. Pavel Miklashevich was seriously wounded, but survived. All his life he defended the honorable name of his teacher.

Negative influence of the teacher

• A. S. Pushkin, “Eugene Onegin.” French teachers in a nobleman's house are a common occurrence. However, “European” education was not always of high quality. Thus, in the novel in verse, the author ironically refers to Onegin’s education. The “wretched” Frenchman did not work seriously with the boy, but “taught him everything jokingly.” He encouraged the child's pranks, sometimes even indulged them. Such upbringing can be considered one of the reasons for the hero’s immoral lifestyle. He does not feel a craving for knowledge, no activity brings him pleasure. Evgeny Onegin grew up as a selfish, eternally bored young man. Sometimes a teacher does more harm than good with his “classes.”
• A. S. Pushkin, “The Captain's Daughter.” At the age of 11, Peter Grinev was hired by the Frenchman Beaupré, who was supposed to teach the boy “French, German and all sciences.” But he was not involved in his direct responsibilities. The Frenchman had previously worked as a hairdresser, then as a soldier, so he was far from his “profession” in Russia. Beaupre drank a lot, led a dissolute lifestyle, and slept through his classes. This affected Peter’s education—he never received any knowledge from his tutor. However, subsequently the hero did not adopt bad character traits from his “teacher”. Pyotr Grinev remained true to himself and his beloved. He did not swear allegiance to Pugachev, maintaining his honest name. All this happened because Peter’s family properly monitored his formation and were able to correct the consequences of poor upbringing in time.

The importance of a teacher in a person’s life

• A. I. Kuprin, “Taper”. In A. I. Kuprin’s work “Tapper,” the teacher played an important role in the life of the unknown fourteen-year-old tapper Yuri Agazarov. At one evening at the rich noble family of the Rudnevs, the young man had the chance to play the piano during a dance. This wonderful performance was noticed by a real musical legend - Anton Grigorievich Rubinstein. They left the Rudnevs' house together. The composer began to teach Yura his skills and helped him develop his talent. The boy in the “worn uniform” is now known throughout Russia. He reached considerable heights: he became a great composer, like his teacher. Rubinstein helped the student achieve success in his element. So, thanks to the teacher, we do not forget about our talents, but contribute to their improvement.
• V. G. Korolenko, “The History of My Contemporary”. Korolenko in his text touches on the problem of the importance of the teacher. A young man who recently graduated from college comes to a new class. In front of him sit fifth-graders, already “hardened” by the rude treatment of their teachers. It is common for them to have humiliations and insults thrown at them. But there is something “wrong” with the new teacher. He steps back from the school system and treats children politely. Ignatovich strives not to force them to study by force and rudeness, but to educate them as real individuals. This attitude does not pass without a trace: after one of the students was rude to him, he soon realizes his mistake and apologizes to Vladimir Vasilyevich. Ignatovich instilled kindness in children and taught them to respect other people.

The influence of a teacher on a teenager’s professional self-determination

• D.K. Orlov, “The place of appearance is a steel room.” In his book “The Place to Appear—The Steel Room,” the writer gives an example of how a teacher can influence the professional choice of his follower. San Sanych Titov instilled in children a love of literature. He always gave his students interesting books, many of which were not included in the school curriculum. Titov helped students reveal their potential and develop talents. So, one of the students wrote an essay in verse, and later “headed the poetry department in the magazine Yunost.” San Sanych always found his own approach to every child. It was important for him to help schoolchildren find a place in the sun, to introduce them to different sides of the vast literature, so that they better understand life.
• E. V. Grishkovets, “Darwin”. Unfortunately, sometimes a teacher can crush a person’s dreams about their future profession. This happened to the hero of E.V. Grishkovets’s work “Darwin”. The boy came to the open day of the Faculty of Biology. But his expectations, which he carried through his entire childhood, all his teenage years, collapsed in one moment. The “lady in a white coat” (obviously an institute teacher) gave a dry, “indifferent” tour. She led the children through the laboratories and showed them scientific activities. But she did nothing to touch the hearts of future students. The hero saw the image of the scientist differently, which discouraged him from any desire to enroll in the biology department. He became disillusioned with the faculty he had dreamed of for so long.

The many-wise Litrekon wishes you success in the exam and reminds you that you should write about all the shortcomings of the work in the comments.

Essay on the Unified State Exam according to the text: “I think I was in the fifth grade when we got several new young teachers who had just left university. One of the first to appear was Vladimir Vasilyevich Ignatovich, a chemistry teacher...” (according to V.G. Korolenko).
(I.P. Tsybulko, option 36, task 25)

We all go to school and go through this important period in our lives. What influence does the teacher have on us, on the formation of our characters? How are conflicts between teacher and students resolved? This is the problem that the Russian writer V. G. Korolenko raises in his article. There was a conflict in the classroom between a teacher and a student. The teacher was able to place himself in this situation in such a way that the student Zarutsky realized his mistake and asked the teacher for an apology.

The author's position is clearly expressed in the article. A respectful attitude on the part of the teacher creates conditions for the formation of the best qualities in the character of students: the ability to commit an honest act not under external pressure, but at the behest of their own conscience. The teacher influences the formation of the students’ character through his behavior, personal example, manner of speech, and attitude towards children.

I completely agree with the author of the article. Teachers should treat students with respect to build self-respect in their characters. A teacher's disrespectful attitude leads to conflict situations that can be very difficult to resolve.

You can recall works from fiction where this problem is revealed. M. Kazakova in her book “It’s difficult with you, Andrey” talks about a boy who was uncontrollable. He was rude to teachers, often ran away from lessons, and was completely untrainable. But the young teacher of Russian language and literature was able to see in this boy a kind and sympathetic young man who is capable of a heroic act. The main thing is to see the good qualities in a person, reveal them, and not let the door, which is often knocked on, slam shut.

Or take Rasputin’s story “French Lessons”. Teacher Lidia Mikhailovna, having learned that the student is in poverty, tries to help him. The boy is very proud and cannot accept help from the teacher. Then the teacher turns studying into a game, and a gambling one at that. The school principal decides that this is a crime, and the teacher loses her job. She leaves for Kuban to her native village. And even from there she sends parcels with fruit, trying to support him.

Yes, teacher-student relationships are often dangerous. But the most important thing here is a sensitive attitude towards children. Only then will the child open up and not withdraw into himself.

Option 36

I think I was in the fifth grade when we got several new young teachers, fresh out of university. One of the first to appear was Vladimir Vasilyevich Ignatovich, a chemistry teacher.

At the initial stage of a person’s maturation, it is important to have a wise, kind, sympathetic, understanding person nearby who can wisely convey his life experience. In this text V.G. Korolenko raises the problem of the teacher’s influence on students.

Addressing the topic, the narrator gives an example of a story from his school life, in which a young teacher, who by that time had recently left the university, played an important role. The author emphasizes that from the very beginning of his practice, Ignatovich treated his students politely, diligently performed his work, showing disdain for grades and, in general, for the usual structure of lessons, which, of course, aroused the indignation of the students - they were accustomed to rudeness and demandingness. The narrator draws our attention to the fact that at first, in response to this attitude “the class almost stopped learning,” the lessons were noisy and, despite the tact and politeness of the new teacher, there were conflicts between students and the teacher, which, to the surprise of many, did not went outside the classroom. The author cites one of these conflicts as an example, drawing our attention to the fact that children began to get used to politeness, sensitivity and respect and themselves began to show a similar attitude towards people. Zarutsky, having unfairly slandered Ignatovich and received a well-deserved reproach from the entire class, publicly apologized to the teacher, which formed a new stage in relations between students and teachers.

V.G. Korolenko believes that a respectful attitude on the part of the teacher creates conditions for the formation of the best qualities in the character of students. These include the ability to objectively assess one’s behavior in relation to society, and the need for honest, conscientious actions that do not depend on external pressure. A teacher, through his very personality, manner of behavior and speech, is able to influence the formation of character in students.

I completely agree with the author’s opinion and also believe that the teacher plays a very important role in shaping a person’s personality. By his example, his behavior, his worldview, he is able to change the worldview of students and program them for honesty, decency, the desire for self-development, self-education, for the natural need to do good and treat people with respect.

In Ch. Aitmatov’s story “The First Teacher” we are introduced to the story of a girl whose teacher played a key role in the development of her personality. Altynay describes his first teacher, Duishen, as an illiterate person, but capable of giving children something more than standard knowledge - irreplaceable support, love and care. Duishen gave his class, who had never been outside the village, a vision of another world, carried children across an icy river in the cold, and once was even able to catch and punish the rapist Altynai. There was no formality in this teacher - he gave all of himself, all his life experience, all his knowledge for the benefit of the future generation, and it bore fruit. At the end of the work, the already matured Altynay returns to Curcureu to invite people to name the new boarding school after Duishen.

In the story by V.G. Rasputin's "French Lessons" also raises the problem of the teacher's influence on children. Lidia Mikhailovna, a French teacher, having learned that Volodya is suffering financial difficulties, invites him to additional French lessons, where she tries to help the boy. Faced with Volodya’s pride, Lydia Mikhailovna, forgetting about pedagogical ethics, sits down to play with a student for money with one goal - to lose for the good, for which she later suffers dismissal and leaves for Kuban. But even after this, the woman continues to help her student, sending him food parcels. Volodya did not forget this irreplaceable support and care even after a long time. Lydia Mikhailovna played a key role in the formation of his personality, instilling in the boy not only the idea of ​​​​the harmfulness of gambling, but also the ability to be a kind, decent and sympathetic person.

Thus, we can conclude that the teacher lays the foundation of personality in his students, the necessary basis, which is a kind of push into a new, interesting, worthy life. Therefore, it is important to appreciate and respect your teachers even after leaving school.

The problem of the relationship between teacher and students arguments

Arguments on the topic “Teacher” for the Unified State Exam 2017 essay. Problems: the role of a teacher and mentor in a person’s life, relationships between teachers and students, heroism.

13 books about teachers. About the role a teacher or mentor plays in a person’s life, about a difficult profession, heroism and true calling.

1) V. Bykov “Obelisk”

The story “Obelisk” is a tribute to the memory of all the unknown heroes of the Great Patriotic War who gave their lives for the sake of Victory. The film “A Minute of Silence,” based on this work, successfully screened not only in our country, but also in Western Europe. The cruel reality of events and at the same time immense love and sympathy for the characters are the two main distinguishing features of all the works of Vasil Bykov.
The story of a Soviet teacher who, like Janusz Korczak, is ready to go to death along with his students. A selfless gesture, a feat of a teacher who does not want to give up, hide and stand aside when his children are led to death. The teacher’s feat lies not in exterminating the enemy, not in blowing up a bridge, but in devotion to children. And this story describes a heroic deed that few were capable of, and to accomplish it requires much more fortitude and determination than to kill an enemy.

2) Ch. Aitmatov “The Scaffold”

After expelling from the seminary, Avdiy gets a job at the editorial office of a local newspaper and travels to the Moyunkum desert to write an article to describe the drug trade developed there. Already on the way, he meets his “fellow travelers” - Petrukha and Lyonka. He is trying to reason with them, to become their spiritual mentor.
Finding himself among a semi-declasse element - people with a very vague past and a very dubious present, Avdiy again makes speeches of repentance - he did not tolerate the killing of many animals “for the plan” - he tries to prevent the slaughter, and drunken employers crucify him on saxaul.

Jake Epping, a thirty-five-year-old high school English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine, who teaches extra test prep classes to adults to earn money, receives a horror essay from one of his students. The short story is about an incident that happened about 50 years ago. That night, the father of a certain Harry Dunning, drunk, came home and killed his wife, two sons and mutilated his 7-year-old daughter with a hammer. The hero has the opportunity to fix everything. Only in the past does Jake find himself in the profession, guide children, become their friend, change their destinies, only because he believes in them. Well, and at the same time trying to save Kennedy.

4) Jean Webster “Dear Foe”

A touching story about a girl who had to take charge of an orphanage. At first she was burdened by this responsibility, but then she felt that the children became a part of her life and even helped her find personal happiness.

5) F. Iskander “13th Labor of Hercules”

A story about how you can approach your profession outside the box and “strengthen the hearts of children” with laughter.

6) L. Sashar “I don’t believe in monsters”

The widely known and most significant work of the Soviet teacher and writer A. S. Makarenko. It tells about the re-education of juvenile offenders in a children's labor colony, the creator and leader of which was the author in the 20s of the 20th century. The book is addressed to a wide range of readers.

9) V.G. Rasputin "French Lessons"

One of the best stories by the famous Russian writer Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin, which has become a classic of Russian literature.
1948 Difficult post-war times, devastation, hunger. Children had to grow up early and take on adult responsibilities. The hero of the story, an eleven-year-old boy, cut off from home, faces poverty and starves. He fights for his existence alone, not accepting alms or help from others.
Thanks to the young French teacher Lidia Mikhailovna, the boy discovers a new world where people can trust each other, support and help, share grief and joy, and relieve loneliness. French lessons turn out to be lessons of kindness and mercy.

10) B. Kaufman “Up the stairs leading down”

The heroine of the book, a young teacher Sylvia Barrett, comes to school in the hope of getting students interested in her subject - English literature, but quickly discovers that the students are mostly indifferent, most colleagues are completely indifferent to the life of the school, and the very course of this life is subject to meaningless bureaucratic norms. Gradually, however, she realizes that this is where she has the opportunity to truly impact the minds and hearts of her students. The novel is given dynamism by the form chosen by the writer: it consists almost entirely of notes, documents, school essays, and letters.
The book is based on real events from the life of the writer.

11) Ch. Aitmatov “The First Teacher”

A well-known story by the people's writer of Kyrgyzstan about a Komsomol member of the twenties who organized the first school in a remote Kyrgyz village. This little story is about a big man. About Teacher with a capital T, even if it may sound banal.
The topic raised in the story by the wise writer and philosopher C.T. Aitmatov, – the education of children growing up in remote villages, or rather, the lack thereof. In the hero Duishen, the author creates an ideal image of a folk teacher (or a teacher from the people) - kind, selfless, honest. It is not difficult to imagine what schools were like in Kyrgyzstan at the beginning of the 20th century. The common people were completely illiterate. The first attempts to teach children the basic skills of writing and counting often failed even at the stage of getting their children ready for school, because parents did not understand why their child needed to study. Therefore, the exploits of all the Duishens - the first teachers of Kyrgyz children - are real, not fictitious.
Is it a joke to teach children whose grandfathers and great-grandfathers were illiterate up to the seventh generation?
In addition, I would like to note other themes raised by the author in this short story - the theme of first love, the theme of a small Motherland, the theme of respect for people who selflessly stood up to defend our country from the fascist infection. Chingiz Torekulovich Aitmatov, as always with his characteristic gift of writing, coped with his task perfectly.

12) “The Bunny's Gaze” by Kenjiro Haitani.

Haitani wrote several books for children, among them “The Eye of the Rabbit,” a novel that received recognition far beyond Japan. The heroine of the novel is a young teacher Fumi Kotani, who will have to find a common language with the junior students of an ordinary school in an industrial area. Among them, the orphan Tetsuzo causes the most trouble - silent and unfriendly, who can easily crush frogs and is not interested in anything except flies. And the title of the book does not indicate the presence of a rabbit in it, but an old Japanese proverb: “You don’t have to be a Buddha to look into the eyes of a rabbit and see the world through his eyes.”

13) Vardges Petrosyan “The Last Teacher”

Most of the characters in the story “The Last Teacher” (1979) are tenth-graders of one of the Yerevan schools. Despite their age, they are much more mature than the characters in previous stories. The new generation of Petrosyan’s heroes looks at life more closely and more practically, and most importantly, they have learned to fight for their love, for their friends, for their beliefs.
Pupils of the tenth "B" grade are outraged by the disdainful attitude of some teachers towards them. And in fact, the school director sees in each of them only something “arithmetic mean,” and the mathematics teacher declares in the staff room: “Not a generation, but an equation with ten unknowns. However, I decided it for myself a long time ago. The answer is zero. Zero!" Naturally, literature teacher Mamyan, who respects human individuality, wins the sympathy of the children. and in his conflict with the administration, they unanimously speak out in his defense, and this helps him in his righteous struggle.

Literature teacher Mamyan played a significant role in the development of their characters. The appearance of this important character in Petrosyan’s work is very significant. It is with his help that the writer moves on to a truly in-depth development of the problem of connection and continuity of generations.

His new hero, first of all, sincerely loves his students. He knows that they want to see him not only as a teacher, but first and foremost as a person. His main task is not to convey to them a certain amount of information, but to teach them to think, feel, and act independently. Mamyan believes in his students. Behind the ostentatious shell of their insolence, he guesses the confusion of the soul and the thirst for independence. He understands that the failed attempt at striptease made by Marie Melikyan in the school chemistry lab is actually explained not by promiscuity, but by the tragedy of a girl whose father abandoned her family. Now she “takes revenge on all men for her mother,” including her classmate Vaan, who loves her, and tries to seem worse than she is. Let us remember that already Arthur in Anya’s Pharmacy guessed about the hidden spring of such actions: “Suddenly it occurs to me that we are not so vulgar at all, but rather trying to seem vulgar.”

The ability to penetrate into the depths of the consciousness of his younger friends, the willingness to actually speak out in their defense in a very specific situation, provided Mamyan with a moral victory over the class that greeted him with indifference.

Creating a portrait of the modern Don Quixote - let us mention this name in its basic, humanistic sound - Petrosyan set himself a difficult goal. The image of Mamyan is in many ways a successful attempt to combine in one character rich imagination and efficiency, breadth of thinking and depth of specialized knowledge, civic courage and tenderness for people. Thanks to these qualities, Mamyan manages to overcome the barrier of alienation that often exists between insufficiently thoughtful and humane teachers and their students. There is essentially no problem of “fathers and sons” for him; he sometimes seems younger than his students.

The problem of the teacher's influence on the student. Arguments from literature and life

Even in peacetime there are heroes. What does it cost to teach the younger generation wisdom and set them on the right path?! A teacher is also a hero in his own way, on whom the future of the country depends. The problem of a teacher’s influence on a student, the arguments of which will be presented in the article, will show how much a teacher’s work can change people’s lives.

In a distant village

Speaking about such a concept as the problem of a teacher’s influence on a student, arguments that it will be well described can be found in works of literature. For example, in the story “The First Teacher,” Chingiz Aitmatov talks about one person who, having no education and having difficulty reading syllables, decides to go against the system and creates a school in the village. One of his students was a girl named Altynai. After the death of her parents, she lived with relatives, from whom it was rare to hear a kind word addressed to her. From her teacher she first learned what kindness is. Later, a former student said that he did the impossible - he opened a whole world for children who had never seen anything in life. Thanks to this man, Altynai was able to study at a boarding school, go to university and become a Doctor of Philosophy.

Everything is for the benefit of the children

This example quite accurately identifies the problem of the teacher’s influence on the student. Arguments from the literature often emphasize that teachers make a difference in children's lives. Contrary to the rules, they are allowed to play for money so that the child has something to live on (Valentin Rasputin “French Lessons”). They sacrifice their lives for the sake of their students (Vasily Bykov “Obelisk”). Simple words of praise instill confidence in one’s abilities, which opens up a great future for students (A.I. Kuprin “Taper”).

It is not easy to consider such an issue as the problem of the teacher’s influence on students. Arguments on this issue always seem like two sides of a coin. On the one hand, the teacher gives knowledge and opens the door to a bright future, but on the other hand, he can cultivate negative character traits in the student.

Just remember Pushkin’s lines from Eugene Onegin, which tells about the main character’s French teacher. He was not particularly strict, he gave only superficial knowledge so that the child would not worry too much, he took the boy for a walk in the garden and from time to time he said what was good and what was bad. As a result, he taught me to treat life carelessly and consumeristly, to take everything from the world, but not to strain to find my place in life.

You can find many examples in novels and books, but just as many stories can be heard from real life.

Life stories

In reality, especially today, teachers, especially strict ones, are often hated and criticized by children rather than listened to their advice. Of course, we can give examples of teachers who neglect their responsibilities. But the majority of teachers are still good.

So, the problem of the teacher’s influence on the student. Arguments from life can be represented by a story that Viktor Astafiev once told. In one of his publications, he wrote about his Russian language teacher, Ignat Dmitrievich Rozhdestvensky.

Victor Astafiev remembers how the teacher took them on a tour of the Russian language, telling funny and memorable stories. But he was very strict in everything related to grades. Victor says that for the first time, when the teacher praised him for his essay, he had a desire to create and write even better. Praise from such a strict person about grades meant a lot to the students. If someone, instead of the usual teacher’s “Undergrown,” heard “Well done!”, this meant that he really tried hard and all his efforts were not in vain.

Relationship problem

When the problem of a teacher's influence on a student is considered, arguments can tell a lot. However, they do not always reflect the difficulties of the relationship. You can often encounter a situation where some teachers are forgotten immediately after leaving school, while others are remembered all their lives. It all depends on the teacher’s dedication to his work. If he loves his subject, tells not only the meager school curriculum, but also many other interesting facts from real life, encourages the students and tries to convey his knowledge to everyone, regardless of personal preferences and prejudices, then the students will respect him and remember the lessons for a long time.

But in a situation where a teacher is a profession, and not a calling and passion, then students will neglect his lessons. And the mentor himself will become for them just another faceless shadow of their school past.

The problem of the teacher’s influence on the student, the arguments of which are presented in the publication, will be relevant at any time. After all, a teacher is the one who leads a new person by the hand into the world where he will live. And only on his influence and upbringing depends what this new person will subsequently turn out to be: he will become another Onegin or turn into an outstanding scientist. It all depends on the work of the teacher.

Arguments on the topic: TEACHER

In the materials of literary arguments, we include a summary of the work, minimal characteristics of the characters and citations.

If you are not satisfied with the excessive volume of arguments, we advise you to shorten them, excluding, in accordance with your conclusions, unnecessary points.

In A. Platonov’s story “The Sandy Teacher,” the reader learns about the life of Maria Naryshkina, who was appointed as a teacher in the distant village of Khoshutovo - “on the border with the dead Central Asian desert.” Platonov writes that the desert became her homeland. Seeing the miserable Khoshutovo, covered with drifts of sand, having experienced the “hard and almost unnecessary work” of people trying to clear the sandy rubble, Maria decides to start fighting the desert.
Three years later, Khoshchutovo was transformed. The plantings have turned green. The school “was full not only of children, but also of adults who listened to the teacher read about the wisdom of living in the sandy steppe.”
One day, nomads trampled all the plantings and drained the wells. In response to the young teacher’s threat to complain, the leader of the nomads says: “The steppe is ours, young lady. He who is hungry and eats the grass of his homeland is not a criminal.” People in the area explain to her that Khoshutovo will now manage without her, because the people here have learned to fight the sands, and that another village is waiting for her, where nomads live who are settling into sedentary life. They need to be taught the culture of the sands. Knowing the complex life of the desert tribes, she understood the hopeless fate of the two peoples squeezed into the dunes, and gave her consent.
The story ends with the meaningful words of Zavokrono: “You, Maria Nikiforovna, could manage a whole people, and not a school...”
The writer A. Platonov gives the image of a teacher who belongs to a generation of honest, purposeful people who believe in a bright future, true enthusiasts of their work. Such people strive to transform the world and devote themselves to building a new life, new relationships between people, between nations in the era of eradication of illiteracy.

From the memoirs of writer Viktor Astafiev.
When the writer V. Astafiev was a fifth-grader, Ignatiy Dmitrievich Rozhdestvensky, a Siberian poet, taught Russian language and literature at their school.
During literature lessons, the teacher forced all the children to read aloud from Dubrovsky and Borodin and was very unhappy that they read poorly. Once during a Russian language lesson, the teacher talked about the word “yar” for an entire hour. Astafiev, a fifth-grader, “was amazed then that so much meaning and significance can be hidden behind one short word, that everything can be comprehended with the help of words, and the person who knows it and owns it is a big and rich person.”
When the fifth-graders developed an interest in literature, Ignatius Dmitrievich began to bring fresh magazines, books, postcards to lessons and always read aloud for ten to fifteen minutes, and the children more and more often sat through recess listening to him.
The students really loved the creative work. One day they wrote about who spent their summer holidays and how. As a schoolboy, V. Astafiev “got lost in the taiga, stayed in it for several days, was mortally afraid at first, then came to his senses, behaved skillfully and steadfastly in the taiga way, and remained alive.” Never before had he tried so hard at school; never before had he been so captivated by paperwork. I waited with secret excitement for the distribution of notebooks. The teacher scolded many essays for lacking their own words and thoughts. V. Astafiev forever remembered the word quietly said to him, a rare and therefore especially dear word: “Well done!”
When V. Astafiev’s first book of stories was published, he signed the first autograph in his life to a person who instilled in him respect for words and awakened a thirst for creativity.

In the story “The Last Bow,” V. Astafiev tells a story that happened to a teacher.
One day the children went to the mountain to buy flowers and seedlings for the school yard. Soon they sat down on the stones to rest and suddenly saw a snake. The schoolchildren “didn’t even have time to think anything when the teacher pushed them away, and he grabbed a stick and began to hammer on the snake.”
“Don’t hit over your shoulder!” the schoolchildren shouted, but the teacher did not hear.
He beat and beat the snake, then turned around, and the guys saw that he was trembling.
When they returned, he followed the children and kept looking around, ready to defend them again and again. The teacher was very surprised that a stick could be used to throw a snake around its neck. It turns out that he grew up in a place where there were no snakes. The guys were amazed.
Years have passed. This is how V. Astafiev remembers the village teacher - “with a slightly guilty smile, polite, shy, but always ready to rush forward and defend his students, help them in trouble, make people’s lives easier and better.”
The writer V. Astafiev believes that “the teacher’s last name can be forgotten, it is important that the word “teacher” remains.

The events of Valentin Rasputin’s autobiographical story “French Lessons” take place after the end of the Great Patriotic War.
The protagonist's independent life began at the age of 11, because he studied far from home. He is lonely, hungry, and has difficulty speaking French. A boy gambles with money to buy food. French teacher Lidia Mikhailovna comes to his aid. The main character refuses help, he is ashamed to accept food from the teacher. Lidia Mikhailovna plays a gambling game with him - “measuring”, and the boy buys milk with the money he wins. This allowed him to survive during the hungry post-war period. The director fires Lydia Mikhailovna, calling her action immoral. After some time, the teacher sent the boy pasta and hematogen in the first parcel, and apples in the second.
The teacher Lidia Mikhailovna is a kind, sympathetic person. She is sensitive because she noticed that the boy was starving and is willing to take risks to save him.

Ch. Aitmatov "The First Teacher"

A well-known story by the people's writer of Kyrgyzstan about a Komsomol member of the twenties who organized the first school in a remote Kyrgyz village. This little story is about a big man. About Teacher with a capital T, even if it may sound banal.

The topic raised in the story by the wise writer and philosopher C.T. Aitmatov, – the education of children growing up in remote villages, or rather, the lack thereof. In the hero Duishen, the author creates an ideal image of a folk teacher (or a teacher from the people) - kind, selfless, honest. It is not difficult to imagine what schools were like in Kyrgyzstan at the beginning of the 20th century. The common people were completely illiterate. The first attempts to teach children the basic skills of writing and counting often failed even at the stage of getting their children ready for school, because parents did not understand why their child needed to study. Therefore, the exploits of all the Duishens - the first teachers of Kyrgyz children - are real, not fictitious.

Is it a joke to teach children whose grandfathers and great-grandfathers were illiterate up to the seventh generation?

In addition, I would like to note other themes raised by the author in this short story - the theme of first love, the theme of a small Motherland, the theme of respect for people who selflessly stood up to protect our country from the fascist infection... Chingiz Torekulovich Aitmatov, as always with his characteristic gift for writing, he coped with his task perfectly.

"The Bunny's Gaze" by Kenjiro Haitani

Haitani wrote several books for children, among them “The Eye of the Rabbit,” a novel that received recognition far beyond Japan. The heroine of the novel is a young teacher Fumi Kotani, who will have to find a common language with the junior students of an ordinary school in an industrial area. Among them, the orphan Tetsuzo causes the most trouble - silent and unfriendly, who can easily crush frogs and is not interested in anything except flies. And the title of the book does not indicate the presence of a rabbit in it, but an old Japanese proverb: “You don’t have to be a Buddha to look into the eyes of a rabbit and see the world through his eyes.”

Vardges Petrosyan "The Last Teacher"

Most of the characters in the story “The Last Teacher” (1979) are tenth-graders of one of the Yerevan schools. Despite their age, they are much more mature than the characters in previous stories. The new generation of Petrosyan’s heroes looks at life more closely and more practically, and most importantly, they have learned to fight for their love, for their friends, for their beliefs.

Pupils of the tenth "B" grade are outraged by the disdainful attitude of some teachers towards them. And in fact, the school director sees in each of them only something “arithmetic mean,” and the mathematics teacher declares in the staff room: “Not a generation, but an equation with ten unknowns... However, I solved it for myself a long time ago. The answer is zero. Zero!" Naturally, literature teacher Mamyan, who respects human individuality, wins the sympathy of the children. and in his conflict with the administration, they unanimously speak out in his defense, and this helps him in his righteous struggle.

Literature teacher Mamyan played a significant role in the development of their characters. The appearance of this important character in Petrosyan’s work is very significant. It is with his help that the writer moves on to a truly in-depth development of the problem of connection and continuity of generations.

His new hero, first of all, sincerely loves his students. He knows that they want to see him not only as a teacher, but first and foremost as a person. His main task is not to convey to them a certain amount of information, but to teach them to think, feel, and act independently. Mamyan believes in his students. Behind the ostentatious shell of their insolence, he guesses the confusion of the soul and the thirst for independence. He understands that the failed attempt at striptease made by Marie Melikyan in the school chemistry lab is actually explained not by promiscuity, but by the tragedy of a girl whose father abandoned her family. Now she “takes revenge on all men for her mother,” including her classmate Vaan, who loves her, and tries to seem worse than she is. Let us remember that already Arthur in Anya’s Pharmacy guessed about the hidden spring of such actions: “Suddenly it occurs to me that we are not so vulgar at all, but rather trying to seem vulgar.”

The ability to penetrate into the depths of the consciousness of his younger friends, the willingness to actually speak out in their defense in a very specific situation, provided Mamyan with a moral victory over the class that greeted him with indifference.

Creating a portrait of the modern Don Quixote - let us mention this name in its basic, humanistic sound - Petrosyan set himself a difficult goal. The image of Mamyan is in many ways a successful attempt to combine in one character rich imagination and efficiency, breadth of thinking and depth of specialized knowledge, civic courage and tenderness for people. Thanks to these qualities, Mamyan manages to overcome the barrier of alienation that often exists between insufficiently thoughtful and humane teachers and their students. There is essentially no problem of “fathers and sons” for him; he sometimes seems younger than his students.

The answer to this question interested me when reading V. Korolenko’s text. It raises, in my opinion, the acute problem of the relationship between teacher and students.

The author discusses this topic and gives real-life examples. The writer recalls how the young teacher Ignatovich treated his students “politely, taught diligently, and rarely asked what was asked.” The journalist notes that the result of such training was disobedience among schoolchildren. The journalist tells with grief about the conflict that happened in the classroom. The teenager, who said something impudent to the teacher, caused confusion and bewilderment for Vladimir Vasilyevich. Communication between the class and the teacher later turned out to be painful and tense. However, the writer is glad that the guys “did not take advantage of the weakness of this young man” and were subsequently able to come to reconciliation, which began the students’ sympathy for the teacher.

In the story by V.G. Rasputin's "French Lessons" raises this problem of the relationship between teacher and students. Lydia Mikhailovna, having learned that Volodya’s student needs money, invites him to additional French lessons, where she wants to help him. But the boy has a sense of pride and resolutely refuses help. Then Lidia Mikhailovna begins to play with Volodya for money. She was subsequently fired for immoral behavior and had to leave. Volodya did not forget the teacher’s deed; she remained in his memory as a merciful, kind and sympathetic person.

In Ch. Aitmatov’s story “The First Teacher” we are introduced to the story of a girl whose teacher played a huge role in the development of Altynai’s personality. She describes her teacher Duishen as illiterate, but his ability to give children more than standard knowledge deserves respect. The teacher tells his children about other countries that they have not been to. He dedicated his life to his students. When Altynay grew up, she opened a boarding school under the name Duyshena. He became for her the ideal teacher, a generous person.

Thus, we can conclude that it is not always possible to come to mutual understanding between the teacher and students, or to establish contact between them. However, this is the basis of the entire educational process, and without respect and trust it is impossible to live peacefully in society.

Essay based on the text:

Why do some people like to read and others not? Why do some people remember their teachers all their lives, while others forget almost immediately after leaving the school threshold? The answers to these questions can be found in the text by F. Iskander. Talking about her school past, the author notes that the students loved and understood the literature teacher Alexandra Ivanovna, but did not perceive the teacher who came to replace her in any way. All this happened because Alexandra Ivanovna was devoted to her work, she loved literature and knew how to reveal the beauty and wisdom of the Russian word. This sincere love was passed on to the children.

The problem of a good teacher who has an informal approach to his subject is more relevant today than ever. But even in the old days it received a lot of attention, and Russian literature is evidence of this. Let's take, for example, A.S. Pushkin. In the story “The Captain's Daughter. he depicted the Frenchman Beaupré, who “was a hairdresser in his fatherland, then a soldier in Prussia, then came to Russia pour ktre outchitel, not really understanding the meaning of this word.” It is clear that Beaupre became a teacher by accident, by the will of fate, he did not put any special zeal or effort into Petya Grinev’s education, so there could be no talk of any love for the subject, and especially for the teacher. And the illiterate uncle Savelich aroused respect and gratitude from Grinev, because he taught the master about life, taught him how to take care of honor from a young age. And in the fate of Pushkin himself, the nanny Arina Podionovna Yakovleva played a greater role than tutors and teachers: it was she who instilled in the poet “a love for fatherly tombs”, “for the deep legends of antiquity” and Russian folk tales. All his life, Pushkin spoke of her tenderly and kindly, emphasizing his love not only for the Russian
to a woman, but also to the entire Russian people with their wisdom, poetry, and sincerity.

Love begets only love. In childhood, she develops the best human qualities and the right attitude towards the world. This is exactly what is said in the first book “Childhood” of the trilogy by L.N. Tolstoy. Creating the image of teacher Karl Ivanovich, the author constantly emphasizes the professionalism and skill of the teacher. And if in the classroom Karl Ivanovich was strict and demanding, then outside of class he was always a kind and sympathetic person. Nikolenka Irtenyev understood this very well, so he tried to sincerely repent of every petty offense against his teacher. Calling Karl Ivanovich a “dear old man,” Nikolenka responds with precisely the love that grew out of love
teacher to child.

A hundred years later, V. Rasputin in the story “French Lessons” in the image of Lydia Mikhailovna portrayed not only a professional, but also a sensitive, understanding teacher, not indifferent to the fate of each child. What did Lidia Mikhailovna come up with to feed the always hungry village boy brought to the regional center to study! And when she was caught by the director in an inappropriate activity - playing “at the wall” so that the boy could “win” some money - she was fired. She left for Kuban forever, but the main character will never forget her. And not because Lydia Mikhailovna sent him pasta and apples, no, but because she took an active part in his fate.

Being a teacher is not an easy task. Being a good teacher is happiness for both the teacher and the students. Because from love for a subject (not necessarily literature) comes love for those who master this subject. And the students, as a token of gratitude for their work, for their interest, for their dedication, pay back in kind - with love. Happy are those who have had such teachers in their lives.

Text by F. Iskander:

(1) Alexandra Ivanovna... (2) Maybe love for your first teacher, if you are lucky enough to have one, is as necessary and natural as first love in general?

(3) Remembering my feelings for Alexandra Ivanovna, I think that in my love for her two feelings somehow merged inseparably - love for her specifically, for the person she was, and love for Russian literature, which she so skillfully revealed it to us.

(4) Almost every day she read to us something from Russian classics or, somewhat less often, something from modern, most often anti-fascist literature.

(5) Reading remains in memory. “The Captain's Daughter” by Pushkin, like moments of the sweetest experiences. (6) If in the realm of the spirit there is a feeling of family comfort, then I first experienced it while reading this book, when there was a silence purring with pleasure in the class.

(7) I remember that Alexandra Ivanovna fell ill, and another teacher replaced her for three days. (8) At the last lesson, she tried to continue reading “The Captain’s Daughter,” but as soon as we heard her voice, we were overcome with horror and disgust.

(9) It was completely, completely different! (10) Apparently, she herself felt it, and the guys in the class made noise with some kind of artificial, evil insolence. (11) She closed the book and no longer tried to read it to us.

(12) Now it’s difficult to say why we felt the foreignness of her reading with such force. (13) Of course, here both the love for our teacher and the habit of hearing her voice had an impact. (14) But there was something else. (15) This obstacle was the very temporary nature of this teacher’s stay with us. (16) The book told us about the eternal, and Alexandra Ivanovna herself was perceived as our eternal teacher, although, of course, we understood that in a year or two we would not have her. (17) But we didn’t think about it, it was too far away.

(18) Recently, reading Marina Tsvetaeva’s notes “My Pushkin,” I remembered our reading of “The Captain’s Daughter” and was surprised at the dissimilarity of impressions. (19) The rebellious soul of the future poet was struck by Pugachev in this book; he seemed mysterious, tempting, and beautiful to her. (20) As I remember now, I was most amazed and pleased by Savelich in this book. (21) Not only me, I’m sure, the whole class.

(22) In the image of Savelich, Pushkin arranged a feast for himself, which he could not always afford in life. (23) Here devotion appears in all guises. (24) The greatest feeling, the beauty of which Pushkin sang so many times in poetry. (25) And this idea of ​​devotion with unexpected force immersed us in its comfort of calm and trust. (26) The idea of ​​devotion to the idea itself, which, apparently, due to the lack of other embodiments of high human passions, developed in us with tragic (which we did not know about), and sometimes ugly (which we were even less aware of) force .

(27) Perhaps that is why reading “The Captain’s Daughter” made such a sweet, such an indelible impression at that time. (28) That is why we pushed away (slightly ugliness) another teacher’s attempt to continue reading Alexandra Ivanovna.
