WHAT MAKES A GOOD TEACHER?

Some people are born to teach, others must constantly strive to reinvent themselves and recreate their lessons in the perpetual pursuit of perfection. It is an ever evolving yet challenging and lifelong learning environment of which we are an integral part. Creating a positive learning atmosphere and developing a good rapport without showing favouritism.

For slow learners, needy students requiring attention and those lacking motivation. Answering questions in a clear and concise way. Punctual, producing well-planned lessons with suitable material. Miming and body language often require this quality, without resorting to circus antics. Being resourceful and in creating and adapting teaching materials and also empathising with students in building rapport.
