WHY WE SHOULD RESPECT OUR TEACHERS We should respect our teachers because if we don’t respect people‚ that are more complex and more experienced than us it will reflect on us earlier down in our lives. Although sometimes our teachers may make a fool of us and humiliate us and sometimes embarrass us in the cruelest ways we should not retaliate in a bad way.
