From the cooperation of teaching among teachers, I suggest the government should build the data bank and provides resources to teachers in order to save time. 4. To fulfill one’s expectations, I suggest teachers should create the idea to learn all their life. 5.

From the communication, I suggest the government should hear more the voices of basic teachers. 7. For passing informations, I suggest the authority should improve the way of distributing informations in order to interest teachers, parents and students. 8.
