One of the first characteristics of a good teacher is a keen interest in their subject matter. When a teacher has a love for his or her subject, it shines through. This helps inspire interest in students, who pick up this enthusiasm. Think about it: knowledgeable teachers also have a wider bank of subject material to turn to in order to tailor the lesson to their individual students. Good teachers not only work with their existing knowledge, but strive to stay on top of the latest research in their field. This helps them make the subject come alive for pupils.Enthusiasm alone isn?t enough to make someone a good teacher. Good teachers also have the training necessary to deliver lessons in the most effective manner. They should know the ins and outs of classroom resources, know how to mark student work, be able to write up accurate reports, and know how to deal with disciplinary issues. An effective teacher tries to spark discussion, framing facts in such a way as to lead their students to look at the issue from all sides. This includes engaging the whole class, not just the most talkative pupils. The best learners have a deep foundation. To learn something, they understand the basics first. They also focus on getting the context right, i.e. the background information about what they learning. For example, you want to study computer science. Good learners will acquire a strong mathematical foundation first, including a good understanding of mathematical logic. This may seem counter intuitive and unnecessary at first, but without this, they can never be comfortable with the more complex topics.
