Many say that

 tutor needs to focus on not judging
students
 who do badly at work, but encouraging
students
while
 exhibiting well. My opinion on
this
 view is that I can not support
this
 argument, and I prefer that teachers should give enough comments on the shortcomings of
students
 to remind them of the points they need to improve.
Firstly

students
, especially those who are learning a
language
, should be eager to know what they not doing enough for their studies,
such
 as in pronouncing, grammatical expression, or whether they speaking like local speakers. In order to improve those

 teaching.
Furthermore

 major is literature, which focuses on writing and comprehension. The
students
 need more criticism from the teacher to gain more valuable and accurate knowledge about writing
skills
, history and culture. If
students
 do not accept the right advice from their teachers, they will easily sort the
skills
 with incorrect information.
Overall
,

, teachers giving positive feedback to
students
 to encourage them is an important factor during their teaching, for
students
 who are learning the
language
, it’s more necessary to be criticized actively by the tutor so that can remain clear on the aspect of
skills
 that they haven’t gained.
