Should a student in this passion class be asked to critique education?

A teacher should be like a friend and a support to the students.
A student in this passion class should be able to critique about education because their future depends on the type of education is given to them. I also feel a student must observe the way a teacher is teaching the class. Most of us come to class to learn, but also want to make sure our teacher is not the type who would give us work on paper and expect us to do it without any explanation. A teacher needs to be involved in anything that we as a student are learning. Teacher should know where his/her student is lacking and work with them. A teacher must not expect that as a student you must learn on your own.
That is the reason we are going to school because we don't have the knowledge of the subject. According to Jehu Sharma, “A teacher is a guru who is guidance to future like a light in the dark." I truly believe this is true because I know one teacher, who is a good example of being a teacher, and his name is Mr. McFarland, who teaches English and I have observed that he like to involve with his students. He goes above and beyond for his student’s future. He tries to help in a very nice manner, and he has a good sense of humor. That makes you want to stay in the class and learn more because your teacher is inspiring you toward the subject you are taking.
Should a student in this passion class be asked to critique themselves?
  Yes, because one must change themselves first before they change others around them. As student you must know your strength and your weakness. Most of the time we do know where we lack but it's hard to admit sometimes because as a student you don't want to show yourself weak. It's important to work on the weakness first so you can become a strong student in the future. As Mr. Franklin, Ravi says, "As a student, you must be flexible and strong to make your own decisions." This is true because as a student you must preplan your agenda so it's easy to follow when you are learning.
 
 It is also important to learn who you are and where your plan's are headed to. It is important to have confidence so you are not afraid of learning. One must challenge themselves so they can learn the right path.
