Qualities of a good teacherBY: Deena David | Category: Education | Post Date: 2009-08-15
A teacher is a person who helps the student to learn. Teachers play a major role in modifying the behavior of the student and making them go on the right path towards learning and understanding. The teacher is a person who not only helps the student to learn the subject, but is also a person who guides the student on the correct path of life. Teachers play a major role in the society. There are various qualities of a teacher that make them excel. This article talks of the various qualities of a good teacher. 1. Individual differences: No two students are alike in any way. There are differences in the level of understanding and other processes. The teacher who identifies this and makes appropriate changes in the teaching method will make a good teacher. This is the most important quality of a good teacher. 2. Team work: The teacher who understands that teaching is not a one person's work, but that it is a team work will be successful in teaching. The teacher should request the continuous co operation and encourage the student to come up with suggestions. This is another quality of a good teacher. 3. Kindly and sympathetic: A good teacher will be kind to the students as this will bring out the best from the student. Though it is also good to be strict with the students, being kind will bring out more from the student. The students should feel comfortable in the presence of the teacher for good learning to occur. 4. Opportunity for learning: One of the most important qualities of a good teacher is to provide an opportunity for the student to learn. Learning opportunity is different from teaching. Teaching can be done by anyone as it is one way in nature. Only a good teacher can provide the opportunity for learning. 5. Planning: A good teacher will plan the various activities in advance. Planning is very essential for effective teaching. Inadequate preparation on the part of the teacher will cause a lot of time to be wasted. It will also cause the students to lose confidence on their teachers' abilities. This will lead to bad and ineffective teaching. So a good teacher should plan all the activities. 6. Selective information: The quality of a good teacher is that the teacher should be able to provide good and selective information to the student. A teacher can provide various kinds of information to the students that may or may not be related to the subject. A good teacher will give out only selective information that is relevant to the students. Giving out irrelevant and excessive information to the students can lead to decreased learning. 7. Stimulating: The learning should be stimulating to the children. So it can be said that another quality of a good teacher is to provide a stimulating environment to the child to learn. This will help the student to learn more in less time. These are some of the most important qualities of a good teacher. Following these principles will make the students to learn more effectively.
