Teacher training is a must as it enables the potential teacher to understand the student better. The knowledge of educational psychology helps him a lot in dealing with children scientifically. Untrained teachers not familiar with the subject may create problem children in the school.
Teacher training builds confidence in the potential of teachers. A trained teacher can essentially face the class with confidence. He is not timid or shy. He can tackle many odd situations and he does not run away from problem situations.
Through training, the future teacher becomes familiar with methodology of teaching. He also gets essential knowledge of methods required for a particular subject. He teaches with flair and not in a routine way.
A sort of brain wash is also done through training. It helps in building favourable towards the teaching profession. During the course of training, many doubts of the teacher trainee's stand removed. It results in creation of love and respect for teaching profession.
Teacher training programmes familiarize the future teachers with all that is latest in education. An attitude of research and experimentation is attempted to be created in them.
During the course of teacher training, we familiarize the teacher trainees with organisation and administration of the schools. It is of immense use to them in later life.
Teacher training is must as it is required to teach the teachers to live a community life. Training is essential to create social insight in them.
We are interested in raising the standards or the quality of education. A trained teacher can be a great help in improving the quality of education and also in checking wastage.
Lastly, training is a must to produce teachers who can teach with zeal and zest and can strengthen the democratic set up in the country'. Training is required not only with the sole aim of making one a good teacher but also making him a good citizen.
