Getting to see these two different examples of how to teach taught me what I should do to be a good teacher. A good teacher is important because the attitude of the teacher has a profound effect on the ability of the students to participate effectively. When the attitude of the teacher was focused on discipline, the class was intimated, but when the teacher's attitude was focused on being open and helpful, the students had higher participation because they felt more comfortable in the classroom. When they felt comfortable, they had more fun. In this way the teacher's attitude is important in shaping the atmosphere of everyone in the classroom.
A good teacher (as shown in the second video) uses names to call on the students, already has the exercise written on the board when the students arrive, lays out the writing on the board in an organized manner, and asks specific questions instead of general ones. When the teacher was trying to help students pronounce words, he first repeated how to say it three times and then gave the command to 'listen and repeat'. In this way, the teacher was clear on when the students should speak and hen they should listen. These are some examples of what to do to have a more organized and successful lesson.
