Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Coaches are the best teachers. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

There have been fervent debates to whether coaches are the best teachers or not. While some people assert that coaches are the best teachers in people’s life, others object the statement that coaches are the best teachers. In my point of view, coaches are not the best teacher. Reasons are given below to hold my opinion.

First of all, most coaches do their jobs because they are being paid for. Coaches are people trained in particular domains in order to help others improve on their skills. They coach people under them only during the periods they are paid for and in most cases; they are never available for the rest of the time. This means if you have a problem after his period, he or she might not be at your disposal and you will have to seek for help some where else. In addition, coaches will likely not continue their duties if they are not being paid which means they value money first before what they do.

Secondly, coaches sometimes practice racism among the people they teach. Coaches as it is the case of football are always given the opportunity to select players. In most cases, some of them detest players from other part of the world for reasons one cannot really tell. But a good coach will have to work with just any person taking into consideration that they have to teach just anybody, also taking into consideration that a good teacher will not discriminate.

Lastly, many coaches do not accept failures. Coaches are mostly paid according to the output of what they do and many of them will not easily accept failures because they are detrimental to their careers. Coaches always want to be winning in order to keep confidence on their employers and when failure comes, they always attribute it to others like players forgetting that different results are gotten from different games. But comparing coaches with parents whom I belief are the best teachers, parents thank us when we do well and encourage us to never give up when we fail.

In conclusion, coaches have a positive impact on the people they teach but for reasons that; they are mostly interested in their pay packages, the practice of racism by some coaches and in addition that they do not like to accept failures, are enough to convince me that coaches are not the best teachers.

While some people assert that coaches are the best teachers in people’s liVES, others object TO the statement that coaches are the best teachers. FROM my point of view, coaches are not the best teacherS. Reasons are given below to hold my opinion.

First of all, most coaches do their jobs because they are being paid for TO DO SO. Coaches are people trained in particular domains in order to help others improve on their skills. They coach THE people under them only during the periods they are paid for(,) and in most cases they are never available for the rest of the time. This means if you have a problem after his period, he or she might not be at your disposal and you will have to seek for help /(somewhere)/FROM SOMEONE/ else. In addition, coaches will likely not continue their duties if they are not being paid(,) which means they value money /first before/ABOVE/ what they do.

Secondly, coaches sometimes practice racism among the people they teach. Coaches(,) as IN the case of football are always given the opportunity to select players. In most cases, some of them detest players from other partS of the world for reasons one cannot really tell. But a good coach will have to work with just any person(,) taking into consideration that they have to teach just anybody, also taking into consideration that a good teacher will not discriminate.

Lastly, many coaches do not accept failures. Coaches are mostly paid according to the output of what they do(,) and many of them will not easily accept failures(,) because they are detrimental to their careers. Coaches always want to be winning in order to keep THE confidence OF their employers and when failure comes, they always attribute it to others(,) like players forgetting that different results are gotten from different games. But c Comparing coaches with parents(,) whom I belieVE are the best teachers, parents thank us when we do well(,) and encourage us to never give up when we fail.

In conclusion, coaches CAN have a positive impact on the people they teach but ONLY for reasons that; they are mostly interested in their pay packages, the practice of racism by some coaches(,) and in addition TO that(,) they do not like to accept failures are MORE THAN enough REASONS to convince me that coaches are not the best teachers.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Good morning Nzuahp. You covered the topic well. Did you fail to review it?

Contrary to your opinion, subject and verb must match one another;
/people’s LIVES/ a persons LIFE./

My life, Your life, He/she/Its life, One’s life.— Our lives, Their lives. The lives of others.

I don’t really know what happened with this one but I will avoid all these errors in the next posts.
You are right, I was really in a haste to get it done and I spent less time to review.

Thanks for sorting all those errors Kitos.

4

Contrary to your opinion, subject and verb must match one another;
/people’s LIVES/ a persons LIFE./

Mr. Kito, what about this, DAILY LIFE or DAILY LIVES?

5

Hello Denny,
It will surely depend on the subject of the sentence.
E.g, Your daily life or Their daily lives.

6

Correct as usual N.

Hi Nzuahp

I think it should be:
( I wrote it in haste. )
As far as I know:
in haste = in a hurry = in a rush= quickly
Are you sure that your sentence is correct?

Thanks for sorting that Richard.
I admit it was really a grammatical errror on my part.

Once again, thanks.
