Unconventional Teaching Methods: Balancing Student Frustration and Academic Success

Imagine there's a particular teacher at your school who has her own unique way of teaching. She doesn't follow the traditional methods that other teachers use. Instead, she asks her students to read the textbook and then explains it to each other without providing direct explanations herself. This process is repeated, allowing the class to discover the correct meaning through trial and error. However, some students become frustrated with this approach and complain to their parents.

As the principal of the school, angry parents approach you seeking a resolution. It's important to note that despite the unconventional teaching style, students from this teacher's class consistently achieve top scores in exams. In this situation, should you listen to the parents and reprimand the teacher, or should you try to convince the parents by supporting the teacher's methods?
