Brazilian educator and philosopher Paulo Freire, in chapter two of his book, “Pedagogy of the Oppressed” explores the banking concept of education. Published in 1968, in his book Freire uses the metaphor of a bank to express his views on the educational system and the existent relationship between educators and learners. Freireexpresses that like in a bank people deposit money, similarly, in schools and colleges, teachers and educators deposit knowledge with the student. The teacher task of a teacher-cum-depositor is to deposit knowledge with the student-cum-depository.
