An honest teacher is able to easily establish a connection with their students. A simple yet reliable moral code is an important impression that students can see early on. After all, these students will be learning more than just curriculum from their teachers. This honesty encourages students to do the same and provides a positive moral role model.
A comprehensible teacher ensures that their words are understood clearly and that they can present information in a concise manner. Students should be able to follow and predict the teachers intentions.
A versatile teacher is adaptive and prepared to translate learning styles. Whether it be connecting the lessons to another subject or simply being able to handle a variety of student interests, a versatile teacher is always ready to combat a new challenge.
While more difficult to achieve due to its abstraction, an inspiring teacher implants students with the desire to learn. These gifted individuals are a motivating presence just by showing up and their attitude creates a fiery passion in their students.
Taking a step back from a headstrong approach, a receptive teacher is able to objectively listen to the ideas of others. This can range from student opinions to heavy handed administrative orders. Whatever the information may be, a receptive teacher understands the importance of keeping an open mind and looking for opportunities to grow in their own learning.
