Being A Good Teacher

                                                                        How To Be A Good Teacher?

(i) Study about yourself:

Some teachers see themselves as the designated expert whose role is to impart their knowledge to students who are empty vessels. Basically, a teacher should be passionate in teaching his or her own subjects. Though it is one or two but they should be passionate in it. Study the chapters first and then teach students. 

(ii) Understanding a student:

A good teacher should know his or her student properly. It’s not enough to know your material. You need to know the people you’re teaching their talents, prior experience, and needs. Otherwise, how can you know for certain what they already know and what they need to learn?

(iii) Keep it clear even if you can’t keep it simple:

One of the chief attributes of a great teacher is the ability to break down complex ideas and make them understandable. If a student is not understanding any concept, make him understand multiple times. 

(iv) About teaching:

A good teacher first studies the lessson and then teaches it. Teaching should not be the profession, it should be the passion. Everything is not fulfilled with money there should be something with heart and feelings. They are also very important in teaching.   

(v) Teach from the heart:

The best teaching isn’t formulaic, it’s personal. Different people teach Shakespeare in different ways because of who they are and how they see the world. The act of teaching requires the courage to explore one’s sense of identity. If you don’t fully know yourself, Palmer says, you can’t fully know your students, and therefore, you can’t connect with them.

(vi) Revising all the topics, making revision worksheets:

 Once you are finished woth teaching your portion, revice the topics done till now, make revision notes. Tell your students to read the chapters again and again. Conduct small tests based on the portion. Make notes and give it to the students. This can make your students bright. 

(vii) Never stop teaching:

Effective teaching is about the quality of the relationship between the teacher and the student. It doesn’t end when the class or the workday is over. “I try to stay away from a 9-to-5 attitude, which means that for the hour you’re here, I care about you, but don’t bother me afterwards,” says Kaplinsky, the Juilliard professor. “One of the most important ingredients of teaching is loving it. I come from Israel, where we have a saying: ‘More than the calf wants to drink its mother’s milk, the mother wants to impart the milk to the calf.’
