What is a Good Teacher?

Daniela de la Deheza TTC 1º year, 2009 Theory of Education What is a good teacher? For me it is difficult to answer this question, even though I’m a teacher. Also, it is very different the theory or what we learn about what a good teacher is and the practise. Firstly, a good teacher is who intents to do her/his best; then the word ‘good’ is too wide, what is right to someone, it would be wrong to others. In my opinion, a good teacher is who teaches her learners individually, taking into account their feelings, emotions and also their motivation without putting aside the goals and contents for each class. A good relationship teacher-learner should be appropriated in which the learners could trust in their teacher. To sum up, a good teacher is the person who is really involved physically, emotionally and intellectually trying to the best than he/she con do everyday.
