5 Things a Teacher Must Do

David Terry, Teacher
After the biological mother, a teacher is said to be the 2nd mother of a child's life. She has a direct impact on a child's life and plays a key role in making her a socially responsible citizen. For this specific reason, a teacher must be cautious about her behavior, attitude and social values that she abides by. Children also idealize their teachers and try to imitate the way they talk, their personality traits and the way they behave with others. Many institutions arrange different seminars and interactive sessions for teachers to adapt and learn qualities and behavioral characteristics that might make a student a better social being. In order to understand deeply the impact of teacher's behavior on a student's life, the following golden rules are definitely going to help you.

Respect others' viewpoint:
 
For a society to prosper and for the formation of a civilized society we need to accept diversity and respect each other's point of view. When a child observes such an attitude in school he tries to practice this in his life after school as well. This leads to overall constructive society.

Never insult a child before others:

Many times teachers are unaware of the fact that their small actions could result in a huge impact on a child's mind. When a child gets insulted before his fellow students his self-esteem falls and he starts to hide himself. He gets frightened and lacks confidence which leads to poor academic progress and less involvement in extracurricular activities.

Be on time:
 
A child keenly observes everything, from the start till the end a child admires whatever his teacher does. The way she organizes her files, her writing, teaching methodology and the way she communicates is being observed carefully. Her early arrival in the classroom depicts respect for students, commitment to profession and excitement for a new day. By this, a student also learns time management and praises his teacher for being so smart.

Discuss something informative:
 
Besides textbook knowledge, there must be some engaging activity for students as well that would develop interest. A teacher must, therefore, indulge students in a 5 minutes informative session at the end of every class to give them updates on new things and share her think tank as well.

Always give remarks:
 
A student loves to receive appraises and good remarks from his teacher. This not only encourages a student to perform well but also make students respect their teachers. This also makes them appreciate others' work when they enter professional life.
