While there are many ways to be an outstanding teacher, every high-quality teacher should, in my opinion, have these skills and dispositions:

This semester, I was a teacher assistant for Dr. Finley’s psychology 101 course. The experience to TA has been a really valuable, and rewarding experience. I’ve definitely gotten the chance to develop skills in the professional context. The variety of tasks and the workload pace was very enjoyable for me. The opportunity of being a TA at times proved to be challenging but I find ways to successfully manage some of these adversities. Overall, there’s a plethora of things that I can take away, and I plan to utilize some of these tactics into my future goals and career aspirations.

A teacher is a person who inspires and encourages us to strive for greatness, live to our fullest potential and see the best in ourselves. They are strong-willed individuals who we admire and aspire to become. We learn from them. We learn through their commitment, integrity, and perseverance. A teacher can influence many important aspects of a student’s life. They help shape a student’s personality, morality and provide them with the tools necessary to take on their future endeavors. “A good teacher can teach you something that you will remember for a day, but a great teacher will teach you something that you will remember for the rest of your life.” I was fortunate enough to find all of these qualities in my Army JROTC instructor, First Sergeant Navarra.

What is a teacher? Is a teacher strictly someone that teaches others or can a teacher be anything in life that teaches a lesson?

When you’re in school it seems as if every teacher you encounter is just there to teach you how to pass their tests and could care less about you or your future. That’s one thing I never got from Mr. Blackett he was the closest thing I had to a parental figure outside of home and he treated me as if I was one of his children whether that be in a good or bad way. He influenced me in a positive way. And I think mentors have a valuable role to play not only in the student’s lives and future but ultimately benefit the community at large. And I am truly grateful for everything he has done for my family and

This course has changed my outlook on mentoring and counseling students from being a therapist to a teacher. I have always known my struggles in middle school shape who I wanted to become as an adult; however, through this course I learn being an advocate for students needs may draw a line between being a teacher versus a counselor. As there are some lines a counselor may cross which will be unethical for a teacher. My experience of finding out why a student do what they do influence me to become overly involve in their life.

A teacher is one who teaches or instructs, according to the Webster dictionary, but a good teacher has less than technical definition.

Doing so ensure that you a growing and improving on teaching skills and building on old strengths to benefit you as an instructor but especially the students that you serve.

In my opinion, a good teacher should be one who puts her heart into teaching. This is because only by doing so will the students feel their passion and hard work. When a teacher strives hard for the students, students will put in their effort as well. If a teacher dislikes her job, goes to classes in a bad mood, her teaching would also be affected and students would not be able to enjoy lessons as well.

Teaching is a difficult occupation. Teachers play an important part in training children, teenagers… So, a good teacher must have some special qualities. They are: knowledge, creation, confidence, empathy, sense of humor and passion.

People say that “Teacher is not a profession, it’s a vocation.” Teacher is the mother of all professions; they are the reasons why we have good Doctors and Nurses, intelligent Engineers and Architects, and excellent Lawyers and many more. So, what is a teacher for you?
