Abstract: It is no secret that countries which have made adequate and appropriate investments in education are more developed than those which have not. Usually, the quality of education in a country is a critical measure of the quality of its citizens. According to the American Commission on Teacher Education, the quality of teachers in a country largely determines the quality of its education system.
