托福考試的備考，作文是不能忽略的重點。尤其是託福作文經常會與一些社會上的熱點話題聯繫在一起。因此考生在備考時，可多練習一些熱點話題的託福寫作。下面爲大家帶來一篇老師教育學生的2017託福寫作範文，供大家參考。
For teenagers aged between 15 to 18, what is the most important to the teacher?
1)the ability to help students plan for future
2)the ability to recognize which student needs help and offer that help
3)the ability to encourage students to learn on their own outside of the classroom
Secondary education can be one of the most formative experiences in a person’s life. What qualities make a good high school teacher? People might go for abilities like helping with future planning or encouraging academic autonomy. I, however, believe that the most important factor is the ability to recognize students in need and the willingness to lend a hand.
The first beneficiary is underachievers. More often than not, students who fall behind suffer from a low self-esteem. It is especially true for teenagers who find it a disgrace to lose face in front of their peers. In this case, they would stay under the radar and try to bury their problems in the dark. Nobody would even notice, not to mention offering any help. However, a teacher with a perceptive mind can discover the problem before it gets worse, so that the troubled kid could get proper help. Let’s say a boy whose parents are going through a nasty divorce may show up late at school or miss the deadline for science projects. If the teacher can spot his recent anomaly and reaches out to him, the boy might open up and confide to the teacher. This is the first step on the road to recovery and an attentive teacher makes all the difference.
Moreover, this valuable quality would rub off on students as well. Instead of lecturing them about helping others, teachers set a better example by practicing what they preach. Seeing the teacher shows compassion and kindness to a kid from disadvantaged background, children are more likely to follow suit and learn to empathize. In contrast, if the teacher is always aloof, school bullies will then pick on the troubled kid. It is because when teachers don’t even bother to care, kids would pick up a wrong message that being indifferent is the best policy. What would them turn into when reaching adulthood? Self-centered. Or even worse, mean and bitter. So it takes a sharp mind to spot trouble and a warm heart to get children out of.
Sure, it is not to say other qualities are trivial. Future career planning offers students some insight into job prospects and college majors. And students would better adjust to college life if they are trained to learn on their own outside of the classroom. But I wouldn’t say such qualities assume more power than an empathetic heart. Why? High schoolers aged 15 to 18 have very vague ideas about their interests and aspiration. That’s why people even take a gap year to figure it out. So why bother planning in such early stage of life while so much remains uncovered and unexplored? As for the ability to encourage learning autonomy, let’s face it, children have been doing this all the time! Since the advent of Internet, children have been drawn to a variety of search engines and websites, which stimulate self-governed learning in a way no teacher can possibly compare to. But the ability to relate to troubled students and lead them out of the woods is in high demand and cannot be replaced.
To sum up, to benefit high school students to a greater extent, the teachers have to be able to recognize what’s going wrong and what can be done to make it right. Other characters can be good to have, but also fine to live without.
附：託福寫作點撥：縱觀獨立寫作：
1)擔心可用詞彙太少。建議背紅寶書或者詞以類記的時候就把你想象中可以拿來用的詞語做標記。第二次背詞彙的時候重點記憶。考前一天再看一遍。練作文的時候儘量回憶你重點背誦的那些詞彙詞組，以求把被動記憶轉變成主動運用。
2)在詞彙書裏面找有用的短例句，尤其裏面有重點可用的詞組的時候。當你覺得某詞組很有用又不知道其用法的時候，上有道、百度察看詞組下的例句。取簡單易用的記下。此時最好可以自己試着組一兩個和例句相似可以用於寫議論文的句子，以鍛鍊對其的熟悉程度。此外，我就作了一個有詞彙和詞組蒐集的文檔。一個詞語或詞組，下面一個例句和運用。非常管用。這樣不怕你的詞組用到不恰當的地方了。
3)多去記給出觀點意見的動詞，求diversity。這個很好理解。
4)一篇文章力求流暢，不要刻意追求長句疊加。會讓一坨屎有種喘不過氣的`感覺。因爲他們雖然是native，但還是那句話，it is a waste of time to make an easy sentence much longer。相反，多用短句，長短句疊加，有一種抑揚頓挫朗誦的感覺和節奏。看去非常清晰流暢文采斐然。如果有這樣的缺點的朋友，不妨每寫完一篇文章就都回頭去檢查一下自己的長句在文章中的比例，並給出一定修改和調整。
5)字數一定要夠啊大哥大姐!字數多=思想豐富、侃侃而談。這是一坨屎的思維，切忌寫了300字就放棄阿!
