I 'm a tutor, what is the characteristic that the greatest teacher should have? Is it knowleadge? Mean must be very good in the subject that you are teach? Must know everything? To me all this is not that important, the most important thing is teach using your heart, and able to make to knowleadge that you teach became intersting, easy to study and understand. Are you a teacher? What do you think?

Well you need to know what your going to teach. But you also should have patience. It is much needed. Well good if we can be like Jesus but its hard. A loving heart will do. Students look up to their teacher. You should also be approachable. I do teach.I'm strict in the classroom but i'm a friend outside the room

I am a teacher, and I believe that the greatest gift you can bestow on your students is to teach them to think for themselves. To help them to understand why they think what they think, and give them the courage to develop their own goals.

The most important thing a good teacher should have is the ability to make things easy and interesting. That is certainly not easy but a teacher should always keep it in mind.

Creativity is the greatest asset to a teacher. You have to enjoy your students, get to know them, and reach them by using their interests.
