Travel Is the Best Teacher (by 12th grader)

Helen – the 12th grader

(The student graduated from NTU last year. It was her writing 5 years ago)

 

There is a saying that the world is a book, and those who don’t travel stay on one page permanently.  It can be a relaxing recreation to set out on a journey, while it sometimes plays the role of a beneficial teacher who makes people grow.

 

When it comes to the benefits traveling bring, broadening one’s horizon always comes first.  Being in a unfamiliar place, travelers are sure to be overwhelmed with local cultures that are totally different from their homelands.  Both the scenes of the area and the lives locals live will definitely impress anyone taking a glimpse at the place.  However, the main reason making travel the best teacher is that it forces people to become more independent.  Travelers are destined to be confronted with unpredictable circumstances happening during the trip.  Since the journey will not go on unless they figure out solutions, people have no choice but to tackle with the problems rather than shrink from them, which helps develop abilities of dealing with sudden incidents.  With such benefits travel brings, it is no exaggeration that travel is the best teacher.

There is a saying that the world is a wonderful and colorful book, a kind of encyclopedia.  Those who don’t like to travel always take a glimpse at the front cover page.  As a matter of fact, it can be a relaxing recreation to set out on a journey.  At the same time, it can play the role of a knowledgeable teacher who teaches people to grow.

 

When it comes to the benefits traveling can bring, broadening one’s horizon always comes first.  Being in an unfamiliar place, travelers are sure to be overwhelmed with local cultures that are totally different from theirs.   Both the exotic scenery and the lives locals lead will be definitely engraved on anyone on the scene.  However, the main reason making travel the best teacher is that it helps people become more independent and mature.  Travelers are destined to be confronted with the unpredictable circumstances happening during their trips.  Rather than shrink from them, they have no choice but to tackle the problems occurred so as to help develop abilities of dealing with sudden incidents.  What’s more, it can help form strong personalities like willpower, patience, humbleness and understanding.  With so many gains available, it is no exaggeration that travel is the best teacher.
