What makes a good teacher?


  • A good teacher should be kind and patient;
  • A good teacher should really love teaching;
  • A good teacher is able to motivate learners;
  • A good teacher should be lively and entertaining;
  • A good teacher has a good knowledge of his/her subject;
  • A good teacher should have good rapport and interaction with the class;
  • A good teacher should be able to involve all students equally throughout the lesson;
  • A good teacher should be able to correct students without offending them or affecting their motivation;
  • A good teacher should know students’ weaknesses and try to give help and individual attention where necessary;



So, what exactly makes a good teacher?


A teacher really cares about his/her teaching, but cares even more about the learning of the students.

  1. I like this newspaper-like design, it's clean and easy to focus on the content of the posts. What is also nice about it is that you guys propose a reflection on teaching rather than just giving ready activities.

  2. I totally agree with "teacher should really love teaching". In my opinion, if love does not exist, no teaching can be performed.
