Only sincere love for children and their subject keeps our teachers in school for a long time. The profession of a teacher is one of the most stressful, a person is constantly in emotional stress. The ability to tolerate such loads is one of the requirements of professional suitability of a teacher, which brings this business closer to the profession of a doctor. What kind of teacher should be in order to become not an ordinary, but a good teacher, to which students come long after graduation?
Give hope
The most important quality without which a good teacher is inconceivable is faith in his students. Not so often, but still sometimes we see how a strong faith in the best in the child makes the inveterate three-year-old a strong, good, and even an excellent pupil. A brilliant teacher is not a winner of competitions, but a winner of students' laziness, their despair. This is one who knows how to give hope even in difficult situations. What should be a teacher? The most important quality is to see the child's intellectual and moral potential.
The collective as a big personality
Work as a teacher requires special sensitivity, caution, sensitivity to the mood of children, the ability to understand children as a collective as a whole, because a large group of children gathered together is like one person. Experienced teachers know that each class has its own face. What works in one team will not work in another. Therefore, a teacher who knows how to guess the best strategy and tactics of behavior with different teams will be a good specialist.
Relationship Professional
What should be a teacher to earn the title of excellent teacher? A professional in building human relationships. If the teacher does not have a relationship with the student, this is a sign of the lack of formation of this skill. It is very difficult to choose and maintain the correct distance, so that on the one hand there is no coldness, and on the other, so that the student does not accept a familiar model of behavior. Partnerships are possible only with high school students, but at the same time, the student must remember that he is a junior partner, and the teacher is a senior.
Consistency as a Respect
What should a teacher be like for students to respect him? Thinking, doing and saying the same thing. A teacher can be authoritarian, harsh, wayward, but if his words do not differ from deed and thought, students will still respect such a teacher. There will be many who will feel sympathy for such a teacher. It is very important to be fair, so that students are confident that the teacher does not grade according to likes and dislikes. In this case, transparency of grades given by the teacher helps a lot. When a student knows the requirements and sees how they are implemented, he feels much calmer. This gives him the feeling that performance is directly dependent on his efforts. Increases motivation and self-confidence.
To be a good teacher, you need to meet many requirements. Not everything turns out right away, but over time, every person who comes into the profession can learn to become a teacher with a capital letter.
