What is the Role of a Teacher in Today's Society? One Who Controls and Restricts or One Who Enlightens?

Teachers have a tremendous responsibility. A Greek teacher said that you give me a child for 7 years, no devil or God can change him/her. Teaching provides such a powerful knowledge to the child. The teachers have two types of responsibilities, one to provide knowledge and second, to be a role model. Nobility is the foundation for such a role model. One who creates an enlightened citizen is the real teacher.
