What makes a good teacher?

In my opinion there are a few important aspects a good teacher has to offer. Having the ability to challenge your students and push them to do well is great, but a teacher needs to be able to do this without stressing out there classroom. You want to keep a friendly and respected relationship between yourself and the students; this helps a student believe you're there to help them no matter how lost they feel in class. A teacher needs to be able to adapt to a new classroom of students. They need to be able to recognize students who are going to need more help, approaching them more often than others to see how they are doing. This goes along with knowing how to grade a student. Each student begins the class with a different level of education and improves at a different rate. When you grade an individuals assignment you might need to consider the tools they had coming in to the class and grade on how much the student has improved. A good teacher will also notice hard work and dedication from a student. Even though the student might learn at a slower rate the teacher will see effort from someone who is really trying their best to achieve.
