Summary: What Great Teachers Do Differently What Great Teachers Do Differently What makes a great teacher? All teachers have an idea of the best teacher they encountered and aspire to be like that person. Great teachers are not developed over night. Becoming a great teacher takes time, patience, and perseverance. In the book What Great Teachers Do Differently, Todd Whitaker chronicles things that great teachers do.
As an aspiring educator I believe that no other profession requires responsibility levels as high as those of a teacher. Not only does the teacher’s job depend upon how well his job is done, the livelihood of the students taught by the teacher is at stake. How and what the children learn early on can affect them for the rest of their lives. The process of learning for the kids not only begins with how responsible they are, but it continues as far as the responsibility of the teacher will take them. Citizenship is a pillar of character that hits home with me the most.
I also want to thank the middle school teachers starting with Mr. Cox. Mr. Cox, I want to thank you for teaching me many things. You are a very hard worker who gets things done when you need to. Even though I have red marks on my skin from your blue baseball bat, I will always remember you in my life. Another teacher who is a pretty new teacher is Ms. Bergan.
Jenny Graves: I love being able to help the younger generations learn and to guide them to be the very best they can be in life. After all they are our future and without us to guide them then the future does not look too promising. Cynthia Moore: What made you choose a career in early childhood education? Jenny Graves: The lack of dedication among the teacher’s I had growing up. To them it was just another job and I wanted more for those learning.
Nobody can take away your level of effort. Another core belief that I have is to always look at the best in things no matter what. This belief helps a ton when you think that things aren't going your way. I got this belief from my parents also. My parents really believed in shaping me into a good person when i was younger.
Being an RA/CA will help improve me being much more responsible with a job. Whenever I have a job I am responsible. But I feel as though I can never be more responsible. I take any job I have seriously. I hope to be a great asset to the school.
I try hard to come into school because year 11 is a really important year for me. In general I am a confident person. I feel it is really important to be confident as it can help you as you grow up. I try and come across as a helpful and well mannered student. I like finishing tasks after I start them because it helps me become more motivated.
Every student goes through some good and bad teachers. A few select teachers have the power to engage students on a completely new level. This gives the student an automatic confidence boost and the wanting to succeed in the subject. I have had the opportunity to experience one of the best. Pete Tarnish was an outstanding teacher who was able to communicate well with his students, care deeply about them, and be a great family man.
Schools that have enough instructional supplies like test book and others always produce good student. The supplies help the instructor to have access to more education sources and references, this makes teaching easy and fun for the instructors. Every instructor who love his work, devote his time and energy to making his student better, on the other hand, student acquire enough skill or knowledge from devoted instructors. Every school or classroom that lacks of supplies never produce good student. Immigrant’s student can only perform better academically when all the needed supplies are available for their learning experience.
We are aiming for the holistic improvement in what community based education looks like. Without teachers at the center of this process you can't have that impact. We know that the support, connectedness, and dedication that our teachers can provide to our learners are unequal to any other model. As a result, our teachers have been some of the biggest supporters. We are openly transparent in this design process while sharing the diverse range of opportunities that exist in a program like this.
