“Do not make the calling of the teacher among you as you are calling
one of another.”

number of writers or complained by the students that the teachers are too
much scared in given marks to the students or giving them appreciation
when they display good behavior and when they show well mannered
attitude in the class.

emphasize on traditional methods of teaching.
