It is possible to learn on one's own as well as with a teacher. Which method is better may depend on what is being learnt and on the character of the learner. For myself, I prefer to learn with a teacher because I think that this method is more effective for me.
The advantages of studying with a teacher are many. Perhaps the most important is that a teacher can help me interpret and better understand what I am studying. By discussing the material with my teacher I can gain more than I would if I just memorized facts. In addition, I can benefit from the teacher's greater knowledge of and experience with the subject. My teacher may know not only the material found in the textbook, but also have valuable practical working experience. I also believe that a teacher can help me develop good learning skills so that I will be able to continue to learn independently in the future. Finally, a teacher can direct my studies so I can learn more efficiently. That is important at this time in my life when I have a great deal of important material to learn.
For all these reasons, I prefer to study with a teacher than on my own at this time. In the future, when the pressures of my studies are lessened and I am learning only insgroupsto pursue my own interests, I may prefer to do so independently.
跟着老师学习
我们可能会独自学习或是跟着老师一起学习。哪一种方式比较好可能取决于学习的内容，以及学习者本身的性格。就我自己而言，我比较喜欢跟着老师学，因为我认为这个方法对我比较有效。
跟着老师学习有很多优点。最重要的或许就是老师可以帮我解释或使我更加了解自己正在学习的内容。通过和老师讨论学习资料，我能学到比死记硬背更多的知识。此外，我可以从老师所拥有的该科目较渊博的知识以及他丰富的经验中获益良多。老师知道的可能不只是教科书中的内容，老师还会有珍贵的实际工作经验。我也相信，老师能帮助我培养良好的学习技巧。如此一来，以后我就能够继续独立地学习。最后，老师能协助指导我的学业，使我更有效地学习。这对我在这段时期是非常重要的，因为我有许多重要的知识必须学习。
