dominated by communicating skill:
Teaching is all about communication - listening, speaking, reading,
presenting and writing. Teachers who hone their communication
skills are prepared to instruct, advise and mentor students entrusted in
their care.

Why is it important?
Good communication skills of teacher are the basic need of academics
success of students, and professional success of
life. Teacher communicates more instructions orally in classroom to
students. Teacher with
poor communication skills may cause failure of students to learn and
promote their academics.
is democratic :

Creating a democratic classroom environment


means involving students, on a regular basis and
in developmentally appropriate ways, in shared
ecision making that
increases their responsibility for helping to make
the classroom a good place to be and learn
is democratic :
-Democratic education is education in which teachers and
learners work together as equals."
David Gribble
"Democratic Education is based on respect, tolerance and love."
Yakov Hecht
"[Democratic education stems from] a free and expressive dialogue
with no rules, no conventions, just honesty and sometimes
bluntness."
Jessica Cawston
causes motivation :

A motivated teacher is crucial to a successful


classroom. They will look at teaching through a
different lens, and, in doing so, motivate their
students in their learning too. Motivation helps to
energise, direct and sustain positive behaviour over a
long period of time
professional in character :
What makes a professional teacher?

It involves superior teaching skills, expert clinical


skills, and personal attributes. It involves
demonstrated attitudes, such as enthusiasm, respect,
enjoyment, and balance of professional and
personal lives
