What Should Be The Qualities Of A Good Teacher?

It is a famous saying that " A teacher is like a light-house which shows the right path to people in darkness" take the examples of great teachers in history like Socrates, Aristotle, Luqmaan, Christ and Hazrat Muhammad who changed the world and still their teachings are affecting people throughout the world.So to be a teacher  is in fact a great responsibility and he should try to possess the qualities of such great people though it's not easy.
Patience, persuasiveness, endurance, faith and consistency  are core characteristics of a teacher.
A teacher must possess leadership qualities, should do whatever he says, to enable the students to follow him. Must have great confidence and strong will power to obtain the best results from his students. Must be  a master in his subject, full command over knowledge.
Dedication and devotion towards his students is must. Always be ready to give time to  students selflessly.
He must be a very easy going person, using simple language in a very lively way so his students get familiar with him and enjoy his presence with heart not with fear.
He must be a man of character indeed.

A teacher is an individual who plays the most vital role in the development of any being. The future of any student depends on the qualities and dedication of a teacher. It is the teacher who creates an interest in students to develop and progress and achieve what ever aims they set for themselves.

The most important qualities of a teacher are as follows:

- A good teacher tries continuously . Teachers respect students who try hard even if they do not succeed; similarly students should respect teachers who try their best for quality teaching.

- Good teachers are always ready to take risks. They set impossible goals for themselves and then struggle hard to achieve them.

- Good teacher always have positive attitude. Cynical people usually create a negative attitude in people especially in students since they are in a raw state of growing and developing attitudes.

- Good teachers are seldom free for extra activities as they are either busy preparing lesson plans, grading papers, trying to instruct their students and if nothing else counselling students in areas that have nothing to do with specific courses.

- A good teacher always tries to give confidence to his or her students and encourages them . Once my teacher said to me that " The specific subject matter I teach is less important than that of  what students learn by learning it."

A good teacher must have full command on his subject. He must also be having a commanding personality as well. Higher degrees are necessary to become a teacher but to become a great teacher loyalty and sincerity to profession is required. If being a teacher, one is sincere to his profession; he will do his maximum effort to make himself successful. And as we all know that effort can never be squandered so a hard working loyal teacher will must get his reward by his students, bosses and the most important one, Allah because teaching is a very noble profession and liked by Him.

Besides having fabulous and fine knowledge, a teacher must have great moral values because he is one being followed by whole generation. He must not make himself to stay with his lectures and study stuff only but he must also play a vital role in students' counselling. He must make his personality friendly and polite so that students do not give another thought to the idea of sharing something regarding studies or daily life problems. There are so many small and big things that must be considered while being a great teacher as a great teacher gets too much love and respect by whole society.

A good teacher, first of all, must like working with people. He or she must have a great enthusiasm for the subject(s) being taught - even if you aren't a great expert on or lover of a particular subject, you can still teach it well if you enjoy imparting knowledge and are good at communicating.

As far as character is concerned, the one quality a teacher MUST have is patience. You must never, ever be annoyed with students because they don't understand something (if they're not listening, that's different!) You must have sense of humour and (very important) create an atmosphere where everyone knows they can ask questions, try out new ideas and maybe make mistakes in a supportive environment.

Finally, the teacher must be in charge. It's very good if the students decide some aspects of how learning takes place, what they learn etc, but the classroom is a much happier and more productive place if everyone knows that the teacher is a professional, who knows what s/he is doing and can be trusted to run the lesson effectively.

Teachers play an integral role in the development of our children. A good teacher should be patient but persistent. Not all children learn at the same pace and inevitably some will require special attention. However, giving up on these children is a mistake as they can usually succeed with encouragement and hard work.
Another must have quality for a good teacher is a positive attitude. Cynics make lousy teachers. We want our children to believe in themselves and that all things are possible.
Also, good teachers are innovators, they come up with ways to make things interesting for their students when they may otherwise ordinarily be bored or apathetic.
Good teachers love teaching, they don’t become teachers to get rich or for the fame and if they have they should have their heads examined. Teaching is not about having summers off. Good teachers are willing to put in the time and effort to make a difference and to be their best.
Above all good teachers are loving, caring people who want to make a difference in the world and believe that they can do so through their work.
