students’ learning
and helping them study effectively
on their own

Good teachers

Good textbooks


• Textbooks are essential teaching and learning materials in any
programme and syllabus. Having good textbooks is very important.
Good textbooks provide students with adequate knowledge, skills
and practice. Good textbooks also guide students how to learn and
help them study effectively on their own.

• However, having good teachers may be more important than
having good textbooks because a good teacher can turn a poor
quality textbook into an interesting one. In fact, a good teacher can
even replace the textbook, motivate students to learn, and train them

to use self-studying skills. Besides that, the teachers must take
responsibilities for the students’ learning.
In summary, having good teachers is more essential for better
learning than having good textbooks.

As the Vietnamese idiom says:

“ NO GUIDE, NO REALIZATION”
