What Makes A Good Teacher?

• Creating a positive learning atmosphere and developing a good rapport without showing favoritism. Having the ability to engage and involve students with your personality.
• Being patient – for slow learners, ‘needy’ students requiring attention and those lacking motivation.
• Clarity – answering questions in a clear and concise way.
• Organized – punctual, producing well-planned lessons with suitable material.
• Sense of humor – miming and body language often require this quality, without resorting to circus antics.
• Adaptable – being resourceful.
• Imaginative – in creating and adapting teaching materials and also empathising with students in building rapport.
