Don Shula Middle School Think on These Things Teaching is more than a job. It is being a teacher. Think about it . As a teacher you have a chance to effect change on society as a whole and have a positive influence on the lives of others.
Teaching is a skill.
To be most effective, you must be a good teacher. A good teacher is someone who has the ability to establish positive and realistic expectations for success - of their students and themselves. A good teacher is someone who is organized and able to manage a well-ordered environment, from the paperwork and deadlines, to the behavior of students. They should be able to walk away, so to speak, and learning would continue. A good teacher knows how important it is to reflect not necessarily on what they plan to do but how they will carry out that plan.
