托福口语范例分析：
Well, there are many mistakes that teachers tend to make. For example, they tend to focus on their lesson plan rather than students’ learning. Teachers are desperate to keep students busy. They just follow the procedure, like grammar instruction, vocabulary work, then a class novel, and so on. They totally forget about the learning process of the students. additionally, teachers don’t call students’ parents. Actually, lots of teachers find it uncomfortable to contact parents. It’s beneficial since it can make sure that teachers and parents are on the same page, working in the child’s best interest. Interaction with parents will be very conducive to students’ educational experience.
范例答题思路：从两个角度答题，第一点是老师关注教学进度忽视学生学习，第二点是不喜欢和家长接触。其实无所谓对错，只要言之成理即可。关于第一点，范例给出了具体的grammar instruction, vocabulary work, a class novel等教学内容细节，第二点则是从这个错误的危害出发进一步讨论，这些细节性的展开考生可以借鉴。而且范例使用的词汇都是较基础的。当然对于独立口语答题时间的限制，考生也可以只从一个角度展开，比如一下另外一篇答题范例，从老师不能在教学中使学生注意力集中这一个点展开，这个范例中举了更加具体的事例。
Well, I think a common mistake that even experienced teachers tend to make is how to attract students’ attention. Perhaps a lot of teachers are really knowledgeable and prepare the classes hard enough, but they don't know how to interact and design the courses, so we may find it difficult to concentrate in class; like I remember when I was in my junior high school, my biology teacher, she was quite experienced, but she only read textbooks, like “frogs, are a kind of amphibian…” we tried so hard to focus, but it was only a matter of time before everyone got distracted. Honestly, we do want our teacher to interact and communicate more with us, to make the class both fun and academic.
