Why I want to be a teacher and the characteristics of a good teacher!

“So what do you want to be one day?”, I was asked. I still remember the answer to that question as though it was yesterday. “A teacher “, I answered diligently!

For me teaching isn’t just a calling it’s my greatest passion. I believe that I’m definitely a born educator. Whenever I see the cute smiles on the faces of children when they learn something new it brings a certain amount of joy to my heart. I’ve been an educator since the age of four although it was with all my dolls; I’ve always known that education is my greatest passion. If I can be an example in a child life, in a positive way then I'll know I'm passing in education.  

 Ps.. If the LEARNERS are HAPPY then I'm HAPPY

The characteristics of a good Teacher

• An engaging Personality and Teaching Style (Hold attention of the class)
• Clear objective lessons
• Effective Discipline skills
• Good communication with parents
• High expectations
• Knowledge of curriculum and standards
• Passion for Children and Teaching

I think that I will be a great teacher because the most important characteristics for me is that you must have a passion for children. You must enjoy what you do. I like to teach others and make them smile and I do believe that I have all the characteristics maybe not the best of it but there is room for improvement.

Ps.. It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes HAPPINESS
