How to be a good teacher????

A teacher is a person who gives and share knowledge with other person. All of us can be a teacher as long we share our knowledge with other person even though it is small thing like playing game. Teacher is not just teaching subject in the class but also act as a parent for the student. So the teacher must have good characteristics to be an effective teacher. What are those characteristics?
Being a good communicator is the most important characteristic that every teacher should have because without good communication you can’t control the students. Students will not listen to what the teacher say if he has a bad communication skills. The good teacher should be able to explain the knowledge clearly and attract them to listen to him. If he has good communication skill, the students will easily understand the knowledge and can do well in the examination. Sometime the student will not respect the teacher who has bad communication skill.
Another characteristic is the teacher should be fair with his profession and all the students in accessing their performance, instead of personal relationships and likings. The teacher should not bias with the students even though they are naughty. Each student in the school would love to learn if they get their teacher attention and love. Some students are naughty as they want to attract the teacher to pay more attention to them. Teacher should not only focus on the excellent students but also pay more attention to the problematic students.
The third characteristic of a teacher is caring. A teacher should be a caring person. It is because without love, you can’t teach well and also can’t control your emotions. If the teacher is a caring person, the students also will show their love towards the teacher. As the result, they will be good student and both of them will have a good relationship. Although teacher needs to be a caring person towards the students, sometimes he should be strict in a certain thing. A caring teacher can control their emotions and not be a fierce teacher that most students hate. Students will listen to what caring teacher say with their desire and it is different with the fierce teacher as students only follow their instructions because they are afraid of the teacher.
In the nut shell, all teachers must have those characteristics to be an effective teacher. If they still don’t have those characteristics, they must change for their own good and the students. Lastly, try to be a good friend to the students.
