Good Teacher

A teacher is the one who shoulders the responsibility of molding the young generation. A good teacher clearly tells the children what is good and bad. He will never be biased or self-centered. The significance of teacher is stated in the popular Malayalam proverb, that says, "mother, father and teacher is same as God".

A good teacher will essentially have the following characteristics.

• Deep knowledge in the subject

• Ability to inspire and motivate students

• Be a perfect role model.

Earlier times, teachers were supposed to be like an encyclopedia. But as of now, the information and science is very vast. One can never be an expert in all of these. Hence, the present the best possible is that the teacher should be through and update in his subject area.

Secondly, the teacher should able to inspire the students to new ideas and thought processes. He should  be able to motivate them to achieve further by extending their limits. Craving out the best is the sole responsibility of the teacher.

Third, is  that the teacher should a perfect role model for the students to emulate. A criminal can only drive home the thought that resorting to bad things is alright for own benefit. A killer or a womanizer can tell only one message, that own pleasures is the most important. Such ill schooled students are the one who makes the life miserable for everyone else.
