Methods and Principles of an Effective Teacher

 

            "Teachers play an important role in the education of every student and have the very important responsibility of shaping the lives of young, impressionable children" (Ferroni). Therefore, teachers should work towards being an "effective teacher." An effective teacher is someone who always demonstrates caring, engaging, and encouraging attitudes in order to help students get through their education successfully.
             An effective teacher demonstrates a caring attitude. For example, teachers with caring attitudes go the extra mile to ensure that every student is successful no matter what. One teacher that I had is Mr. Collins. He is a very lovely teacher. He is always giving care and attention to every one of his students. One time my history teacher gave a reading assignment of approximately five pages; this is the time when I was newly arrived in America and did not have a very good comprehension of English. I was really nervous and afraid that I would not be able to read and do well on my test. On that day I was not smiling or having a conversation with anyone. When my teacher, Mr. Collins, observed my unusual behavior, he called me into his office to discuss the problem and to give me a suggestion. He also helped me to read in order to be prepared for the test on the very next day. He not only helped me with homework assignments and with learning the English language that I am unfamiliar with, to be able to use the language eloquently and correctly, but also he helped teach me to be responsible and to be on time. He always taught every one of his students that we are all supposed to have a responsibility and to recognize our duty, otherwise others would have to do our part and this would not be fair. He always taught every one of his students that to be a good person it does not begin from going to temple or church everyday, but it begins from whether or not we recognize and retain responsibility for ourselves and keep from causing trouble to others.
