Urban areas are created through urbanization and are categorized by urban morphology as cities, towns, conurbations or suburbs.

Teachers Colleges In China

''Informally'' the role of teacher may be taken on by anyone (e.g. when showing a colleague how to perform a specific task). In some countries, teaching young people of school age may be carried out in an informal setting, such as within the family (homeschooling), rather than in a formal setting such as a school or college.
