'Mistakes' - Painful when they happen. \n               But years later... \n         A collection of mistakes \n              is what is called... \n                 'Experience'\n\n    I remember reading the above quote many many years ago... but still fresh in memory b'cas I agree with it...\n   To experience it,  is to know it yourself... not knowing it b'cas someone tells you it is so. Isn't there a difference between someone telling you that honey is sweet and you experiencing it yourself. As kids when we are told not to go near fire and if we do, it would hurt, we don't understand it. With all the natural kid's curiosity we go and try to touch a candle light, there, that moment we experience it!  We get a lesson for life! Don't we?The next time if someone asks us to put our hand in fire... we would never do it... b'cas we had an experience. \n    Experience teaches us a lot, especially when what we experience is not very positive... but not to forget, that , 'not so positive' experience is what leads us to great victories in life!

How can we help you if we know nothing about the teacher?  Would it help you to know why I liked my favorites?  OK:\n\nI had a history teacher in junior high who had us act out little scenarios from history, to make the whole thing seem real.  That was very good.  One of my math teachers used to give use wonderful little math puzzles, including some that were extremely funny, like those based on the works of Lewis Carroll.  My favorite French teacher gave us little gifts for spelling bees, and I won a package of five tiny (sample size) bottles of real French perfume!  My Latin teacher had us reading the "naughty bits" in the old bawdy Latin plays, but that was in college, and we were all very mature.\n\nGenerally, the teachers who put some creativity into the classroom, and who draw creativity out of their students, get the best ratings and teach the most.  But the other thing is the teacher to expects a lot, but plays fair.  My sixth grade teacher gave us lots of homework, and graded exams very uncompromisingly.  But she always answered the questions we had, and never played favorites.  She just imperiously assumed we all had the ability to learn, and would not accept laziness.  The lazy students hated her, but the ones who wanted to learn, learned a lot.  She was also very systematic, did the same pattern of exercises every day, so we always knew what to expect.  We had ten questions on the blackboard to write down in our notebook to answer in history and social studies; we had 20 vocabulary words in spelling, ten sentences to diagram in English . . . does anybody diagram sentences anymore?  Sometimes a very old-fashioned teacher is the one from whom you learn the most.  (Not "the one you learn the most from," because a preposition is a bad thing to end a sentence with!)

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

Most importantly, you would need excellent, perceptive teachers who are willing to make themselves available to their students in a one-on-one situation.  This gives the students the opportunity to share their concerns, ambitions, etc., with their teachers; and it can provide the teacher with greater insights, as to the students' needs.\n\nThe ideal school should also have state-of-the-art equipment and facilities, but the teachers are the most important resource for optimum learning.

ah yes, but you only see the best of the best, that's all we take in from there.  I had a math teacher from there, great guy, but you talk to him about his home land he didn't think the people there are all that smart.

Since all Universities in the world had different ways of teaching its student, there isn't actually the "best." It's just depend on your opinion. My opinion is that in the US, the best one is either Harvard University or John Hopkins University. In UK, I think its Cambridge University and Oxford University. All of the schools that I mentioned offers international students some form of financial aid. Contact them for more info.

Each and every child is the best.  Each person is unique, one of a kind.  And each person has a destiny, something only he or she can do to make the world a better place.\n\nI can teach others.  And each person is better than me in something.  In that I can learn from him or her.

When I look back on the teachers with whom I've had the most positive relationships, I realize that it had a lot to do with their belief in my abilities and their tendency not to overly exert the supposed 'imbalance' of authority in our relationship.\n\nIn order for a teacher to have a meaningful relationship with his students, he needs to extend his role from merely educational *instructor* to that of parent and friend. While it is necessary to have a strong personality that is capable of handling or preventing destructive moments of indiscipline, I think it is also necessary to communicate to students that they are special, important and capable of achieving their goals. It is essential that they receive a sense of confidence in their abilities, since this is an important determinant of how well they will eventually perform in the class and---possibly---their future.

I am currently a senior early childhood major in college.  I have had the opportunity to work with a large number of teachers.  It amazes me how talented and extrodinary some of the teachers are to work with.  However, some should never have went into education and it is sad that students have to sit in the classrooms of teachers who have no business teaching.\n\nSome of the very best qualities of teachers I have studied with include:\n-Caring\n-Flexible\n-Positive attitude\n-Nuturing\n-Has a sense of humor\n-Great listener\n-Understanding\n\nAs I am in the process of becoming an early childhood teacher, I feel I am molding my believes and attitudes around becoming the best elementary teacher I can be.  I have seen the teachers who are not caring towards their students.  I have seen the teachers who aren't willing to go the extra mile to help a student if needed.  They do not want to be bothered.  Because of the terrible teachers I have observed or actually had as a student, it has helped me to enstill the wonderful qualities I have listed above into myself to become a well-rounded teacher, colleague, mentor, friend, coach, to my future students and co-workers.

I loved the subjects with the most enthusiastic and engaging teachers...for me, that was English.  I guess that's why I became a hs English teacher!

Best teacher: Mr. Sanders, 10th grade English\n\nFavorite: Mr. Sanders ties for favorite with my 8th grade History teacher Mrs. Miller.\n\nDifference between favorite and least favorite: Least favorite is Mrs. Pryor, 9th grade geometry and she was a horrid teacher. She never looked a person in the eye and did not interact with the students at all. Mr. Sanders encouraged the use of our imaginations and free thinking. He wanted to hear our ideas and allowed us to discuss and even argue our points. He taught me never to accept something just because someone else said it was so. "Question everything and learn more" was his motto.\n\nTeacher become more affective: That's a tough one. Be more understanding of the individual needs of their students. Classes were much smaller when I was in school and it was easier for a teacher to recognize a student who needed special attention before they got lost. These days, partly because of the size of classes and partly because it's just harder to teach todays kids, some teachers just don't seem to have the energy or the desire to deal with the special needs of some students. I also think the school districts themselves should loosen up on the teachers and give them more freedom with their curriculum. Teachers who are allowed some freedom in technique seem to make even better teachers than they would be with their hands more or less tied.\n\nHow many questions is that now?: Counting this one, 6.\n\nEdit/10:48pm cst/3-11-06\n\nOops, forgot one.\nWhat makes a good teacher: One that opens my mind and motivates me to use it.
