๐What makes a great teacher?
Well, there are no hard and fast rules as to what makea a great teacher and different approach to teaching work for different people. Some teachers are in favor of showering praise on students to motivate them to work harder; while some consider praise to be causing harm to a childโs learning process.
For me, telling your students what to do does not alone, means teaching. Itโs more than that!
Today, I bring you some ideas that might assist you in your effort to make your teaching more effective in the classroom.
๐Itโs all about PASSION!
What differentiates a good teacher from a great one is the PASSION for TEACHING and the passion has to be genuine. Faking the passion would lead to nowhere.
๐Know your students well; just like you know your SUBJECT.
Knowing your subject isnโt enough to make you a great teacher. Know the people you are TEACHING, WHAT they like in what you teach, their requirements and what they need to learn from you. Teachers should not get lost in the very important step towards effective teaching, which is knowing your students well.
๐Be open to new LEARNING STYLES.
A lot of teachers have the opinion that each pupil is comfortable with their own style of learning and itโs always better to encourage them to learn in their preferred style. Moreover, being a teacher, you have to keep updating the latest teaching styles that can optimize the learning process.
I hope you found value.
