With the rise of AI tutoring systems, we’re asking if they can replace teachers. These virtual assistants offer personalized learning, feedback and 24/7 access but lack emotional intelligence and human connection necessary for education.Teachers are key to social skills, empathy and motivation – qualities AI can’t replicate. They can adjust their teaching based on subtle student cues to create a supportive learning environment.Moreover education is mentorship and guidance where teachers inspire creativity and critical thinking through discussions.In conclusion AI tutoring can enhance educational experiences by adding resources and support but can’t replace the value of teachers. A hybrid model that combines AI with human instruction may be the best way to modern education and benefit students in many ways.
