Knowledgeable – It is very important for a teacher to master the subject, for a teacher cannot teach on a subject he/she does not understand.

The previous mentioned qualities are all important that a good teacher should have; however, “passion” stand above all the rest. Passion is the key for one to improve him/herself and to enjoy the environment. It is difficult to make someone to want education, but it is a teacher’s responsibility to motivate his/her student to work hard and to improve.

Reflect for a moment on your own classroom environment or on a favorite classroom environment from your own schooling. Are there (or were there) clear rules that emphasize what students should do rather than what they should not do? How will (or did) it change student performance?

William Glasser is one of the greatest educational thinkers during the 20th and 21st Century. He contends that student behavior will not improve until educators and administrators change the way they work with students.
