Goal: success

In most parts of the world, some teachers are known as “laureates.” Others have the ‘label’ of getting students to work until they get the best results. Tony Wong Ah Sui, Rector of Keats College in Chemin-Grenier, insists that the student must be confident to do his best. It is, therefore, the duty of every teacher to ensure that he achieves this goal. “There is no reason for a student to fail ... To succeed, the student has a role to play: to be consistent in his efforts and to follow the teacher’s advice strictly.

 Classroom management

To manage one’s classroom properly is to know the behavior of each student. A teacher must be able to use a variety of methods to reach each learner. Otherwise, the students become bored and uninterested in the class, causing their misbehavior. Each student is unique; we must consider it as such. “A lack of communication of leadership can lead to a lack of discipline in class.”

Continuing Education

The knowledge evolves. Thus, all teachers must be aware that they must continue to learn.

 Valuation

Nowadays, with a changing society, education must adjust accordingly. It’s important that teachers value the input from their students and adapt their teaching methods according to the changing times. These are just some key traits of excellent educators and teachers.
