is one of the many ways people learn. Some will say that teachers are very influential people. They are able to reach and impact people in a negative or positive way. Teachers have different personalities and all different types of teaching styles. The way a teacher acts in a classroom affects how the student learns. A teacher should not only have respect for his or her students, but remain professional at all times. Because, if a teacher does not show any care or respect for his or her students
Can TV be a Good Teacher? Many people today blame television and media in general when something bad happens, for example shootings in the schools. However, should television take all the blame for effects and changes in American youth? Television shows crimes and killing, but television can also teach young children how to behave in the right way.

to define the terms, ’good teacher’ and ’great teaching’. When I entered into the Master studies a year ago, I knew I wanted to be a good teacher. I started to list in my mind some qualities and criteria of a good teacher, and began to realize the complexity of the questions: ‘What makes a ‘good teacher’? How do teachers improve the quality of their teaching? And how does a teacher get children to value their education? By definition, a good teacher is a ‘high-quality teacher’ (Merriam-Webster). In
favorite teacher, but that teacher may not be the best qualified person. The future of any student depends on the qualities and dedication of a teacher. The teacher is the one who creates an interest in students to develop and progress and achieve what ever goals they set for themselves.

“This is the value of the teacher who looks at a face and says there’s something behind that and I want to reach that person, I want to influence that person, I want to encourage that person, I want to enrich, I want to call out that person who is behind that face, behind that color, behind that language, behind that tradition, behind that culture. I believe you can do it. I know what was done for me.” (Maya Angelou) America is yearning for teachers who are passionate about their jobs. America

A few of the qualities of a good, successful teacher as stated by Chris Lehmann, the founding principal of the Science Leadership Academy in Philadelphia.

The Good, the Bad, and the Teachers “Every kid starts out as a natural-born scientist, and then we beat it out of them. A few trickle through the system with their wonder and enthusiasm for science intact.” —Carl Sagan Did you know? America used to produce a 5-cent bill... A hummingbird weighs less than a penny... A jellyfish is 95% water... Giraffes have no vocal cords... The penguin is the only bird that can swim, but not fly... There are 293 ways to make change to a dollar... You're born with
As I interviewed Ms. Kimyetta Green the director/teacher at Lee’s Cuddles ‘N’ Care I had to ask some background question first. I asked Ms. Green how long has she being working for the center and she stated, “I have been here over 10 years”. Then I asked her, “What made you decide to go into early childhood education”? She stated, “I love teaching the children and I have always had a passion for teaching the children”. I can relate to Ms. Kim because I feel the same way. I have always had a passion
In my opinion, a good teacher should be one who puts her heart into teaching. This is because only by doing so will the students feel their passion and hard work. When a teacher strives hard for the students, students will put in their effort as well. If a teacher dislikes her job, goes to classes in a bad mood, her teaching would also be affected and students would not be able to enjoy lessons as well. Another point that makes a good teacher would be his/her patience. Teachers should not get upset
One good quality a teacher should have is, respect for the students. Each person’s ideas and opinions should be valued and not judged. They should be able to express themselves without feeling insecure. Another good quality is, having high expectations for your students. Each student should be encouraged to do their best and achieve goals that they may have never met before. Another good quality is, I believe a teacher should have is good communication skills. They should keep not only the students
The qualities of a good teacher: Passion: This seems to be the most obvious quality for me. Of course you need to love teaching and helping learners grow in order to be effective. Nothing done for a pay-check can be done well and it needs to be considered that teachers lay the ground work for a child’s LIFE, that responsibility should not lie in the hands of someone who is unhappy within their career as a teacher. Communication: Effective communication is a must. If you are unable to clearly convey
of a Good Teacher At the age of five, children are required to attend school. At the age of 5, teachers become the most influential person in their life. Because teachers are a big influence in the development of students they should possess many good qualities. A few of those qualities are understanding the reason behind the student’s actions, speaking privately to the student about personal matters, and lastly pushing the student to his greatest potential. To begin, a good quality a teacher needs
The Importance of Good Teacher-Student Relationships What kind of relationship should a teacher and a student have in the classroom? The answer to this question may seem like an obvious one to many because a teacher and a student should always strive to have a good relationship in order to fare well in the classroom. In fact a good relationship creates many advantages between both teacher and student. For instance, a good relationship produces a good environment within the classroom, which can
Brad Henry once said “A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning.” I agree one hundred percent. If our students don’t have hope that they can learn what we are teaching them, if they can’t imagine a story or a new game, and if they don’t love at least some of the things that they are learning then school is pointless for them because they are not going to get much out of it. We as teachers can do these things in a variety of ways. One way is using many
in the classroom and determined to help other teachers as well in understanding what they have to do in the event they have English students in their class I have illustrated the I seriously take my responsibilities (Pandya, 2012).

In the article, "Why Tough Teachers Get Good Results", the author, Joanne Lipman, is identified as the speaker. In the past, the author had a particularly strict teacher, Mr. K. In paragraph 3, the author states that research supports the fact that their and Mr. K’s other students’ eventual success is due to Mr. K’s strict teaching style. Through experiencing Mr. K’s rigorous style of teaching, the author gains credibility by experiencing the effectiveness of the aforementioned methods first-hand
If we never fail, how do we know when we succeed? We all expect success from our youth, but in modern education it is just handed to them. Joanne Lipman, author of “Why tough teachers get good results” stated, “Kids who understand that failure is a necessary aspect of learning actually perform better.” Everyone loves to succeed, but our own insecurities about failing should not be the reason that our children are not encouraged to try, even if the outcome is a failure. As a nation that prides itself
The teacher student relationship is very important for children. Children spend approximately 5 to 7 hours a day with a teacher for almost 10 months. We ask ourselves what is considered a good teacher? All of us have gone through schooling, and if fortunate had a favorite teacher. A positive relationship between the student and the teacher is difficult to establish, but can be found for both individuals at either end. The qualities for a positive relationship can vary to set a learning experience
The Good, The Bad, and the Teachers Teachers can make a difference in a student’s life and as an upcoming teacher I would like to make an impact on my student’s lives as well. In my opinion a teacher is one of the most valuable parts in a child’s life. Teachers share their knowledge about the world and content that a child must know to succeed in the world and as a teacher the ultimate goal is the belief in every child being successful. In my past I have had many teachers, some are wonderful and
