Makes no difference to me as long as they are knowledgable in their subject area and are an effective teacher.

I use to teach- and LOVED it (most days)- but then I had my kids.  Now that they are young, I tutor in my house.  \n\nIt is convenient and flexible. I love that I can be more relaxed and that I have the opportunity to meet some great kids. \n\nI do however, miss teaching a class of students- When I taught I worked with the whole class, in small groups and one and one all in a given day.  I DO NOT the miss the stress of the politics behind teaching....still I hope to go back someday.... goodness knows when that will be.  In the meantime- I will have to stick to tutoring and visiting this website :) \n\n\nGreat question !

I'm not sure exactly what you mean ... But I'll give you what I think you mean ...\n\nIt is popular among educators to talk about single-gender classrooms. There are some that believe that if boys and girls take separate classes, they can learn more. So, they study the same subjects, but just from different teachers or at different times. All the boys in one class, the girls in another.

I could not find any teachers listed in the local area.  Maybe someone will answer your question directly.  Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

the student is responsible for their choices. A great teacher will facilitate learning in a stimulating and comprehensive way but the child must make the choice and the commitment to learn.

A good English Teacher in my opinion is someone who listens to their student and willing to help their student with what it is that they are working on. They are able to connect with a student on an interpersonal level and encourages as well as mentor them to love English. Help them accomplish their goals in my opinion and be passionate about English.

The best teacher is the one who find the way to teach everyone on the best way, easily and making things to look interesting and fun. The teacher who can make everyone to open their mind and look forward about what they supply like information and who can make their lessons to look also useful for the students life.

What you mean boys and girls??\n\nYeah, I think mixed schools are the best!! It's so silly seperating us because then people don't really know how to act in front of the opposite sex if they go to all boys or all girls schools because they don't get much chance to interact with them otherwise. \nOur school is mixed and it's really good, everyone is friends with each other!

I teach English part-time. It all depends on the level of my students. Adults prefer lots of role-playing, drama (speaking exercises) and learning stuff they can use at work, so the culture tends to be informal but professional. With high school students, I get them to open up and talk about stuff they're interested in and tailor-make my lessons to suit their interests. The atmosphere is casual and open where teacher and student are like friends. But with younger kids, you can't afford to give too much flexibility and freedom coz they're too young to appreciate it. I tend to be strict and to the point, get your work done or else.

A good teacher is an effective teacher.\n\nI never answer questions with a web site, but visit  Harry Wong's and if you can, borrow or buys his "The First Days of School" book. It is amazing. (and yes, that is his name).\n\nhttp://www.harrywong.com/

ask your teacher what he reccomends.

teachers are hot.\n\n\nthe problem, though, lies with the fact that they would lose their job by dating students.  plus, it's usually illegal.  plus, the teacher is probably taking advantage of you.  plus, it'll never work out to be a long-term relationship, if that's what you're looking for.\n\nprobably not worth the risk and anxiety....

I had an amazing english teacher who taught us Shakespeare.  He would make us read all the 'little parts' while he did the 'big parts' with this fantastic accent he made up depending on the role.  He really 'owned' the material and knew stories very well that he made a lasting impression on me and to this day I love Shakepeare.\n\nI think, though, that all the teachers who made lasting impressions on me had one thing in common - they all passionately loved the material they taugt, from history to math to english or art.  It was their love for the material that influenced me to learn more about it.  That kind of excitement for something is catchy.

My favorite teacher would have been Wayne Pelts hands down!  Mr. Pelts was my 11th grade History teacher.  He also was my "coach" for a state competition in both 11th and 12th grade.  He was so wonderful.  He let us be us.  I was an honor student and had just moved to te school in the 11th grade.  So many of my classmates were upset of my advanced grades.  Mr. Pelts reminded me that I was going to school for me not others.  He was constantly encouraging us to be ourselves and he even included that into his studies.  He did not walk into class on the first day and lay down the rules...instead he came in and told us his name and said that this was his day to learn... about us.  It has been over 14 years since I had him as a teacher and to this day whenever I see him, he is still a friend and not just another teacher!\n\nAs for learning with him, he was awesome!  He brought the past to life!  He compared history to things that one would never imagine.  One of the funniest things I think that he did, was let a Senior Class paint his classroom.  It was all of these bright, wonderful, happy colors that realeased our tensions when we walked into his class.  And if you had emotions, he let you literally write them on the wall as long as it was not profound.\n\nMR PELTZ made me who I am today, and that, I am so proud to say!\n\n=0)
