雅思大作文:犯人的教育意义

Some people who have been in prison become good citizens later. Some people think that they are the best people to talk to school students the danger of committing a crime.

Do you agree or disagree?

It is believed that people who used to be prisoners but now have become good citizens can be the best teacher to help children understand crimes’ harm to the society. I partly agree with this opinion.

These people who have a criminal record could use their own experience to convey the consequences of their wrong behavior to children, which might be more effective than other ways of teaching. The process might be quite interactive as children would ask questions and these teachers would answer with real stories happened to themselves rather than explain with complicated terms which do not make much sense to the children. Expectedly, the shocking information can leave a deep impression on children and be a long-lasting warning sign.

However, we cannot completely rely on these teachers and their personal experience. My top concern is that some of these people are poorly educated and they have limited teaching ability, so they are not able to train children to understand how the legal system functions and why it is dangerous to commit a crime. Besides, stories based on one’s memory could be unreliable or not vivid enough to pass the message to children. Therefore, the unprofessional teaching should at least be supervised by professional teachers otherwise the influence may turn negative.

Overall, having children educated by people who have served sentence in prison can be a good choice as life experience may work wonders to improve children’s understanding in the danger of crimes. But this way of teaching may not be satisfying due to the fact that these people are not trained teachers and thus the positive impact on children could be limited.
