This week, David wrote briefly about several schools whose teachers and students are being used as laboratories to test on how to improve teacher qualities. Although the results most likely won't be posted for quite some time, David asks his readers what sort of qualities we think a successful teacher needs to have; so here is my list of top ten teacher qualities in no particular order:
1. Love being around children
2. Enjoy learning
3. Flexible
(The first two were first revealed to me in EDFN 300 and I completely agree with Dr. M :)
4. Patience
5. Communication
6. Culturally responsive
7. Accepts children for who they are
8. Upholds the ethical standards of the field
9. Self aware
10. Open mindedness
If anyone has anything else they would like to add to list, feel free to do so; I'm sure we could spend hours discussing what qualities a teacher should have. :)
