The children need to know that their teacher knows them and loves them as an individual. The child needs to be confident in the fact that the teacher thinks that the subject that they teach is the greatest in the world, but nothing is as great as the child. The second is a knowledge and enthusiasm for the subject that they teach. The teacher needs to be able to convince their children that this subject is the most interesting thing in the world and the teacher cares enough about the child to share their knowledge of the material. The teacher needs to keep up to date on the latest discoveries and newest information to show the child that as an adult they never stop learning and that the subject is alive and continuing to develop.
Teachers are responsible to colleagues, parents, and the community.
Teachers should have a good working relationship with their colleagues. They should be able to work together in order to produce the best outcome for a child. They should be able to go to each other for help and advice. They should also be the biggest support for each other. Parents and teachers should have an open line of communication.
