2. 1. MASTERY OF THE SUBJECT
If a teacher lacks knowledge in a subject, that
dearth of understanding is passed along to the
students. And keep in mind that although
formal education is one way a teacher might
gain the knowledge they need in order to teach
well, there are other ways.
3. 2.UNDERSTANDING THE STUDENT
Learners are individuals and bring their own
needs and experience to the learning
environment. To be an effective teacher, it is
necessary to appreciate the importance this
knowledge plays in creating a successful
learning experience for the student.
4. 3. MOTIVATIONAL
Enthusiastic with standards and expectations
for students and self. Gives praise and
recognition. Have strategies to help students
act positively towards one another.
5. 4. ORGANIZED
. A study (Harry Wong,1998) showed that
classroom management depended upon a
teacher's early organization skills, which led
to student cooperation, engaged student
activity, and a productive learning
environment.
6. 5. PUNCTUAL
Puntuality among the teachers is the
reflection of self discipline and devotion to
work and give knowledge to the students.
Students are impressed with the teachers,
they learn from them. The teachers should
be puntual so that the students learn the
same from them, learning gets easier.
7. 6. PATIENCE
Some children may take longer to
understand certain subjects or pieces of
information and it is vital that you are patient
and take the time to fully explain so that they
understand and learn from your teaching
8. 7. INTEGRITY
Integrity is the quality of honesty and having
strong moral principles and so it is necessary
for the teacher to have these so that the
pupils can be educated to act in the same
way. Integrity allows teachers to be a role
model for their pupils.
9. 8. FLEXIBLE
Each one of your students is unique, which
means that at any point, any one of them
could catch you completely off guard,
whether it's with a thought-provoking
question, a challenging learning barrier, or a
brilliant accomplishment. Be prepared to
handle your “teachable moments” with style.
10. 10. COMPASSIONATE
Teaching is a very humanistic profession,
and compassion is the utmost feeling of
understanding, and showing others you are
concerned about them. A compassionate
teacher models that characteristic to the
students with her/his actions, and as a result
students will be more open to understanding
the world around them.
