Different people have different views on what is the most important factor to influence students’ success in school. Some people think the most important factor is the students’ intellectual ability or students’ interest in learning, while others believe that a teacher with rich teaching experience is the most important, because such a teacher can give students the most accurate guidance in class. Personally, I believe that there are many factors that affect students’ academic performance, although teachers are important, the foundation of learning lies with the students themselves.
Firstly, students are the subjects of learning and the bearers of learning tasks. If they are not willing to learn, or there are problems in learning methods and attitudes, it is quite normal that they do not have obvious achievements. Therefore, in order to get students to do well, the first problem to be solved should be to arouse students’ learning enthusiasm, teach them the learning methods and skills they should have, and make them willing to learn, otherwise other efforts will be in vain.
Secondly, the teacher’s teaching is also very important. The real masters are those who are good at simplifying complex problems, not those so-called experts who are mystifying. If the teacher can systemize the fragmented knowledge, simplify the complex knowledge, make the boring knowledge interesting, and teach some learning skills, it will greatly reduce the difficulty of students’ learning, so that more students will be willing to learn. But it’s all based on students’ willingness to learn.
In conclusion, the most important factor affecting students’ academic performance is the students themselves. If we can work on the factors that can be changed, I believe that our students’ performance will improve.
